I thought I had lost these photos many years ago but yesterday I went to visit my old school friend and she still had copies! Result! Hope you like them. http//i107.photobucket.com/albums/m311/sacmac/2015-03-20%2016.18.27.jpg http//i107.photobucket.com/albums/m311/sacmac/2015-03-20%2016.18.19.jpg http//i107.photobucket.com/albums/m311/sacmac/2015-03-20%2016.18.00.jpg

It was amazing. That was my first live Paul gig. It was a lot shorter than the stuff he's doing now, but still exciting to see. I was originally a Beatles fan and never got to see them in concert and when they split I didn't think I'd ever have a chance of seeing Paul on stage. And here we still are and he's still going strong - I never imagined 50 years later I could still see him playing Looking forward to Liverpool

You were so close! Love the mullet and his sweater vest!

Great. I know he played at Njårdhallen in Oslo in 1972. I was not there, but only because I thought Paul McCartney was too young, He'd warmed up with The Beatles in the 60s and finally... in 1989, he was ready for someone like me in his audience. Hey, I still hope for this period of live material better documented with "Wild Life" and "Red Rose Speedway" archive releases...

Thanks everyone, glad you liked them. They certainly brought back many memories for me!

You thought Paul was too young in 1972? *confused*

I was just twisting it around, my sense of humor, or "humor", depending on the reciever.

How did you find out about the show, as i thought with the Uni gigs he just turned up with little advertising? How was the concert recieved by the audience?

I was really lucky - I had a friend who worked at the university and she called me telling me about the rumour. It took a lot to get there as I had to then track down my dad who was not home so that he could come and take me there. Managed that and then had to persuade him that I'd be okay at the gig. I arrived after it started but managed to pay my 50p and push all the way to the front, hence the photos being close to. I'm still amazed we managed to organise it all at the last minute without the aid of computers or mobile phones

I was in high school then and remember reading about that in Rolling Stone. I grew up about a mile away from a University here in the States and though how incredibly lucky!! Thank you for opening a door to wonderful memories-for you being there, for me wishing I had been!
