I was at a concert last summer because I love Beatles, Wings and Paul's solo stuff. The concert was the worst I have ever attended and after 20 minutes I was so fucking bored and just wanted to leave but I couldn't cuz the gf wanted to see it through. The show got decent during Live and let Die and the singalong to hey jude, but other than that you better bring a chair that you can nap in cuz he's booooring on stage.
Originally posted by sarah_webinc saw him a few years ago. He plays things he wrote. So, pleanty of Beatles but some wings thrown in (though I don't know now that Linda died).
Hey Jude was fantastic in the big arena.
My mother almost beat up the old lady behind us but that is a different story.
woman behind us kept talking loudly and right into my mom's ear through every slow song. My mother, who is a born again Christian, junior high school science teacher and was a Paul crazed fan as a teen, got more and more annoyed. At one point the woman said something along the lines of (during Yesterday) 'oh my god, this is the best concert I have ever been to, I wish my kids were here to hear it!'
In one split second my mother turned into psycho bitch from hell - i swear her head spun totally around - and screamed 'Well my kids ARE here so if you aren't going to shut your ugly face so they CAN hear it I will shut it for you!'.
My sister and I almost wet our pants right there. I had visions of my mom as a teenager beating up George fans. An insight I maybe shouldn't have had.

Originally posted by TheMob? I just got tickets for one of his shows this summer.. The fucker better play beatles stuff, his solo stuff sucks.
anyone seen him?
The Beatles are definately the greatest band ever, but McCartney has some good songs he wrote post-Beatles. Maybe I'm Amazed, Silly Love Songs, Helen Wheels, Let 'em In, Live and Let Die, just to name a few. Should be an awesome show.
i wish they would have shot him instead of john lennon.
should be a good show nonetheless. i finally got tix to see david bowie after wanting to see him for 10 years ... will be cool just to see the dude although i hope i get some ziggy stardust action!
I saw him play in the Finsbury Astoria in 1965 I think. could not hear him for the girls screaming and I forget the name of the group but I think they were popular.
