I know I keep saying it but...DUBLIN, DUBLIN, DUBLIN! I'll even buy you a Guinness Paul!
LOL...there was a sign here when he played Chicago. This was right outside Wrigley Field:
GOd, that is funny. A few weeks ago I saw my favorite Beatle band and their Paul they had that night (with the nickname Bubblewrap for some odd reason) joked about scoring a free Guiness. The staff obidged with one for each of the band memers. He sipped his saying, "ah, that's the stuff." He then told a story. He said he was drinking one and a girl came up to him and said to him, "Did you know that Guiness is full of blood and entrails?" He then replied, "In that case, I'll take two."

Some serious Macca withdrawal symptoms ! Denmark is almost tempting if no nearer dates come up.
I know, right? It's not been long since my last Macca gig, but I still come on here every day in hopes that more, closer tour dates will be announced. I was hoping more might be on their way because it'd be strange to come back to Europe and only do Denmark. Definitely going for the soundcheck package next time.
Soundcheck would be ace, do you know how much an SC package costs?
Isn't it $1500 (for rows 3-8 or something)? I think you can get soundcheck with seats further back at a cheaper price though. Ooobu24, do you know?

Haha love it!! @Nancy...10 years?...I will shut up!
Yes, I was too poor in '05 when he came to Atlanta (but I got a beautiful large professional pic of him from someone I know who is a photographer with the Atlanta newspaper and took the photo at the concert!) Then in '09 he came back but the show was outside, I think general admission and in the burning heat of August!! (sorry Paul I would have had a heat stroke)

Not sure. I think that would be the difference in the pkg names. I doubt they would get much cheaper. they need the money you know! lol...

I think it's cheaper for UK shows. Denmark sold Hot Sound for around £450 to £500. I wouldn't mind paying around that or a tiny bit more if it's more expensive. Can you actually choose your seats when you go for Hot Sound? Or do they tell you your seat number after you buy it? Are they good seats?

What I remember from Montreal last year was: Front Row with sound check $2000. 2 to 5 with sound check $1500. 6 to 8 no sound check $650.

I remover reading something about the front row packages being seats at the edges but the 2 to 5 and back packages are in the centre block. I'd rather be a few rows back but in the centre!

What does that necklace depict? It's not a W is, it?
-
It's a pair of wings. He wore two necklaces in 1976 on tour, one was a Wings Speed of Sound round circle if memory serves, which you can just about see here, and one was an ivory colored pair of wings.

I know, right? We had a thread around here somewhere trying to figure out what it was & why they don't offer them at the store. Wouldn't that be a good idea? Wings wear...yeah...that's the ticket.

Oh yes right, oobu, now I remember! Fantastic idea, I'd buy one (for a reasonable price...).

They were custom made for the band. At the time they also had a promotional piece of a necklace (and a tie tack) of the Wings "W", quite small. I managed to find someone willing to part with one.
-
More touring will mean less time spent on the new album!!! I want this more..
