==McCartney live performances== McCartney performed "Get Back" on the ''[[Late Show with David Letterman]]'' on 15 July 2009. Letterman's show was taped in the [[Ed Sullivan Theater]], the same theatre that hosted the Beatles' performances on ''[[The Ed Sullivan Show]]'' in 1964 and 1965. McCartney's performance was not on the stage, however. Instead, he performed atop the theatre's marquee overlooking [[Broadway (Manhattan)|Broadway]]. In the interview preceding the performance, Letterman asked McCartney if he had ever played on a marquee before. "I've done a roof", McCartney replied, referring to the Beatles' 1969 performance atop the Apple Corps building in London.<ref>{{cite news |title=Paul McCartney Stuns Manhattan With Set on Letterman's Marquee |newspaper=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=2009-07-16 |url = https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/paul-mccartney-stuns-manhattan-with-set-on-lettermans-marquee-20090716 |access-date=2014-11-28}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=McCartney Rocks the 'Late Show' |publisher=[[CBS News]] |date=2009-07-15 |url=http://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/mccartney-rocks-the-late-show/ |access-date=2014-11-28}}</ref> McCartney also performed the song as a kind of encore on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' on 11 December 2010. The performance was unusual for the show because McCartney had played the two standard songs that musical guests play, then had played a third song ("A Day in the Life"/"[[Give Peace a Chance]]"). At the normal conclusion of the show, when host [[Paul Rudd]] thanked the cast, McCartney retook the stage for "Get Back", the broadcast of which was partially cut off due to time constraints. McCartney performed this live during his 1989/1990 [[The Paul McCartney World Tour|World Tour]], and it was released on both the full-length and highlight versions of the subsequent live album ''[[Tripping the Live Fantastic]]'' (1990). In 2009, a performance was included on the ''[[Good Evening New York City]]'' album. In 2005, the song was part of his Super Bowl halftime show. McCartney and the [[Foo Fighters]] performed the song at the 2021 [[Rock and Roll Hall of Fame]] Induction Ceremony.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Zaleski |first=Anne |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/foo-fighters-rock-hall-paul-mccartney-performance-1251015/ |title=Foo Fighters Jam With Paul McCartney, Blaze Through 'Everlong' at Rock Hall Induction |magazine=Rolling Stone |date=31 October 2021}}</ref>
