I was there. They played Me & Julio after they went off air just for the folks in the theater, with Andrew Bird whistling away of course. What a treat

That is very cool. I saw Paul Simon at what was supposed to be his last big concert in Hyde Park a couple of years ago. It was unforgettable - as was a 2002 concert in Edinburgh which, with the Castle and the Scottish landscape all around was epic in a real sense. But in a way I envy you being there in a more intimate space. All good though, all very good. Keep safe!

I saw him in 1999, right before he went on tour with Dylan. He was testing he new band, Just him & his band in a tiny club in Philadelphia. Only 900 lucky people. $25 ticket. All ages, all sining along. Effing amazing

Sign of excellent musicianship when they can step back from the spotlight when it's the right thing to do. Reverence indeed.

Chills... wow. Just wow. I started listening to this guys magic as far back as I can remember (prob between 1968-70). This arrangement and lineup really brings out the true essence of this song. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. Truly humbled. Love, love, love this!! ✌️💞

I'm a huge fan of everyone on that stage and close to worship Paul Simon, however, that was without a doubt the worst live rendition of this song by Paul ever!! Sorry.
