He was one quarter of the most successful band of all time.

So you would think that Sir Paul McCartney would be a little jaded when it comes to excessive attention from fans by now. 

However the 70-year-old looked more than happy to indulge his admirers last night as he left the Cecconi restaurant in Mayfair.

Hey you! Sir Paul McCartney was mobbed by fans when leaving the Cecconi restaurant in Mayfair last night

The star had enjoyed dinner with his wife Nancy Shevell and Bruce Springsteen and his wife Patti Scialfa.

The fans were so excited to see Paul that they made it nearly impossible for him to reach his car.

Paul was gracious as he posed for photos, despite the obvious inconvenience.

He signed with his hands to say everything was fine as he finally made it to his car.

The singer had certainly had a bothersome night, having been silenced midway through an appearance on stage with Springsteen earlier in the evening.

Bruce’s microphone was cut off at the end of his headlining slot at Hard Rock Calling in Hyde Park last night when he broke the sound curfew.

The legendary singer had been playing for more than three hours when he was joined on stage by Sir Paul McCartney for an encore.

However, the musical veterans both found their microphones silenced before they could address the crowds as it became clear they had defied the strict curfew by half an hour.

Before the subdued ending, the pair had delighted the crowds by collaborating on the final two songs of Springsteen’s 29 song set, I Saw Her Standing There and Twist and Shout.
