Former Beatle Paul McCartney is set to take the stage at Wrigley Field on Sunday and Monday.

The event will be the first time Sir Paul has played a Chicago concert since 2005. And he's coming back with a band that has been with him for recent tours: keyboardist Paul "Wix" Wickens, guitarist Rusty Anderson, drummer Abe Laboriel Jr. and guitarist Brian Ray.

Here's a look back to some McCartney highlights from the past, present and future on the eve of his return. -- Compiled by Darcel Rockett
