According to the Daily Express, the former Beatle ditched a performance of 'Hey Jude' as he plans to use it during the Olympics opening ceremony instead.
A source told the paper: "Paul already knew he was performing at the Olympics opening ceremony when 'Hey Jude' is a definite for the setlist.
"Understandably, he didn't want to be performing the same song twice at two such high-profile events."
McCartney confirmed that he would be a part of the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony on July 27, earlier this week.
