Bruce Springsteen And Paul McCartney Get Shut Down At Concert (VIDEO) Posted: 07/16/2012 3:47 pm Updated: 07/16/2012 9:36 pm (HUFF POST)

Concertgoers were in for quite the surprise when Bruce Springsteen brought Sir Paul McCartney on stage during his finale in London’s Hyde Park. The legendary rockers performed several Beatles hits together, but their performance was cut short when concert organizers suddenly pulled the plug.

What gives? Apparently Springsteen was three hours into his performance before McCartney joined him on stage. The pair was shut down when they exceeded the noise curfew previously set in place and after authorities received complaints from a neighboring community.

London mayor Boris Johnson commented on the situation, saying, "If they had called me, my answer would have been to jam on in the name of the Lord!"

Bruce Springsteen mocks London 'sound police' and shows who's boss at RDS (BELFAST TELEGRAPH)

Bruce Springsteen has opened his Dublin gig by mocking authorities in London who brought the curtain down early during his Hyde Park concert.

Coming on stage at 7.25pm, he stood with guitarist Steve Van Zandt in front of a huge power switch and told the crowd of 35,000 in the RDS: "Before we were so rudely interrupted . . ."

It was fitting that his opening tune was 'Twist And Shout', the same Beatles song which he was performing with Paul McCartney when the plug was pulled at Hyde Park by the UK authorities.

There was more fun made with the incident by his choice of second song, the Bobby Fuller Four track made famous by The Clash, 'I Fought The Law', whose thrashing by the E Street Band prompted Springsteen to remark: "That will teach them".

It wasn't long before Dublin City Council chiefs were the next target. Springsteen and his band were fined an estimated ?50,000 for breaching a curfew by 15 minutes at the RDS with their first concert and 19 minutes at their second gig in July 2009.

"We're not sure when the curfew is tonight. Do you really have curfews in Ireland?" he said of the 11pm cut-off point agreed between promoters and Dublin City Council Planning.

But curfews were forgotten as he began to hit his stride.
