Most musicians only have to worry about crickets chirping during their performance. On Tuesday night, Paul McCartney had to fend off a cloud of grasshoppers as he played a concert in Goiania, Brazil. As McCartney, 70, played through his three-hour set, several of the creatures settled on his shirt. According to The Sun, the rocker even included one of the bugs in his set, introducing one of them as "Harold" during a performance of "Hey Jude."
