MANHATTAN — Paul McCartney doesn't need any help packing Yankee Stadium.

The Beatles legend rocked the house in The Bronx for the second night in a row, on Saturday.

Sir Paul belted out a massive, 30-song set in The Bronx, including a number of Beatles hits and other works including "Drive My Car," "Maybe I'm Amazed" and "The Long and Winding Road," according to WCBS FM radio.

The bassist then stepped out for two encores, including a rendition of "I Saw Her Standing There" with Billy Joel.

The second encore included the rollicking "Helter Skelter," the station said.

It was McCartney's second night in The Bronx.

His next stop is Detroit on July 24.
