Best night of my life - I met Paul! He called me up on stage during the sound check after he read my sign when he first came to the mic at the start.
ok...so who was taking soundcheck pics??? There must be one! Congrats!
So what happened onstage??? Did you get the pick?
-
Yes, I did manage to get and hold on to the pick during the excitement. I don't actually remember everything in sequence. At one point he reached into his pocked to got out a pick and I held my hand out and he placed it there. The best memory was when he put his arm around me - that I remember well. I'd forgotten that after I proposed to my boyfriend, Paul put his arm around me a second time and told him (in the audience) that he had to take both of us! I literally got to share a microphone with Paul McCartney and he has his arm around me to boot! After, everyone asked if my boyfriend said yes and of course he did! If I can figure out how, I will post a pic of the pick!

Wow that's incredible - what a great story!

Oh you proposed onstage? How cool! Put your pictures somewhere like photobucket & get the url & then come here & use that little button above where you type in your post...the one that says IMG...you need one before & one after your url. Give it a try.

That's a great story. If someone proposed to me like that, I would certainly say Yes!

Okay, here goes. (link removed since the picture has now been posted)
-
Doh - it didn't work. What did I do wrong?
-
-
I right clicked on your pic & pasted it in here. It always need to end in a .jpg or jpeg Have you seen the pic of you onstage with him?
-
Wow, you are fast! What was I missing? I tried with and without a space between the URL and Img.
-
Now I see. I copied what I saw on the right side of the page - non of those have a .jpg at the end. But if you click the wheel icon in the picture itself, it will go to a menu where you can get one with a .jpg. Okay, learned something new today! Thanks!
-
haha...yeah I was just about to sign off & I saw this come through. The pick looks very cool.
-
Awesome. I kinda hate you but awesome.

The link you posted above just takes me to a page that needs a password so I am not seeing anything. Thanks oobu for the pick photo! And congrats liv4art on your Paul moment!

You won't need the link anymore. Oobu24 kindly posted the picture for me when I couldn't get it to work.
