It holds just a few hundred! It stated in the pollstar report that it was indoors.
Well, it mentioned its indoor capacity, not that it was actually indoors. The big concerts are always outdoors, and then there's Paul McCartney... indoors! None of the people I know from that area are even going to try, according to one report of a local it's "a zoo" up there, with "hundreds of cars".
I took it to mean indoors since they stated the capacity. They may have been trying to say...don't even bother we will be MAXED out. Can you imagine?

And btw, if I'm too late and they sell out, and anybody is looking to sell me a ticket, I'll buy. Send me a PM

"We are done folks! The line has formed and we are at capacity for Paul McCartney tonight. Thank you for your efforts. Please don't make the drive out here. Apologies to all that couldn't get in. We love you!" https://www.facebook.com/pappyandharriets/posts/10154538426141774

from some pix I've seen, looks like the concert area may be outside, so perhaps people would want to hang around to try and hear the music without a ticket...

This forum should really be upgraded - last upgrade almost 10 years ago... I can't be bothered to manually resize all these pictures, so we just have to sit this page out with huge pictures spreading the whole page. Reports from the scene: Capacity of 300 obviously exceeded instantly from the moment the people were allowed to actually form a line. "It dissolved into chaos before 3. We left before we could get trampled by the people running and shoving others." "There were two long lines in either direction, both waiting for the real line to open. Once it did, there was a huge rushing bottleneck. We gave up and opted to beat the mass traffic outta there." "It was a mob scene well before 3:00." "Although there was no official line set up by anyone official, we were told to stay put in the unofficial line by security who said that our line was the only one that they knew of. Then turns out that there was another line on the opposite end which at 3:00 rushed in in front of the 300 people that were in the unofficial line. Anyway, I wished there was a better plan because a whole lot of us got shafted." " We were there 3:03 and couldn't get within 1/2 mile. Thousands of people. Then saw post they were sold out. Only 300 capacity." "At least 1000 people in line. I'm behind at least 400 people. Cops and security everywhere. Don't know what will happen. Crappy cell reception." "The CHP just told everyone to move their cars from the street or get towed. No chance to get in" "It is officially over. Cops kicking everyone without tickets out." For those with a website running Beatles articles reading along as always, I gladly did all this work for you ;).

Must have put them on sale earlier since when it was announced, it said they would go on sale at 6:30pm.

They probably started a tad earlier since there's no reason to wait any longer from the moment a line with 300 people, the full capacity, formed.

well, if you look, it was about 2 months or more I told you that something was in the works as a surprise show. But with both of these large desert trip shows around it, friends are busy and out of reach. When I hadn't heard anything, I just left on schedule. Had I gotten through, I would have extended. I was there until yesterday. Sadly missed this one.

[quote="nobodytoldme"] I wonder if all of his semis dropped off their equipment. This is just the band right? Or maybe some of the people going to the gig.

Ah, the answer, from people in the line: "They are giving pre tickets and then selling at 6.30. We live here and it has been nuts.....pre tickets now selling for $$$$$'s." "I think what happened is they counted off or gave wristbands(to buy tix)to the first 300 or whatever in line. The rest of us had to hit the road."
