Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney is to play a surprise gig in the Somerset market town of Frome on Friday night, as a warm-up for his headline slot at the Glastonbury Festival on Saturday. Sir Paul will take to the stage at the Cheese & Grain in Frome with fans rushing to the venue to pick up tickets after the shock announcement this evening.
The 800-capacity venue posted the news on its Twitter feed at 4.50pm and said tickets would go on sale - first come, first served - in person from the town centre concert hall from 5pm today (Thursday).
