Macca made a brief appearance during the end of The Pretenders set at the Park Stage. Eagle-eyed fans spotted that he was stood at the side of the stage. After hugging Pretenders frontwoman Chrissie Hynde, Macca, who became the oldest Glastonbury headliner this time last year, went on stage, gave a quick thumbs up, and then went off again.
