Wonder if theres any chance of us hearing Ebony and Ivory? i mean, they rehearsed it for the White House show and it went down well there, and when they played it at the mexico souncheck it sounded pretty good really...
so we may get it thrown into the mix. i dont think i'd mind it either Josh -

So can you get back to me to let me know who wants to eat, I was thinking of booking a table for about 6 o'clock for dinner. Would that be ok? If anyone wanted to meet earlier we could stay in the bar area until 6. Whoever does not want to eat could meet us in the bar after dinner.
Count me in for dinner at 6. I'd love to have drinks with you guys before dinner. Just let me know what time you'll be there. Like I said, I will watch the football game (starts at 12.30 pm) at MM's but will head into town afterwards for a short walk around the city. How are we gonna recognize each other?

My tickets haven't arrived yet, but up in the North East of Scotland I wasn't really expecting them today. I won't be getting worked up about it unless it comes to Monday or Tuesday and I don't have them.

Unfortunately there's no frogs and snails in the menu but you can count me in too No problem to recognize me : I will sing Let it Be with a French accent and out of tune. Seriously, I suggest that Christinemacca gives us by PM a reference of booking so we can meet directly at the table. NO ticket for me and no informations with the link I got by mail yesterday. I just hope that it has already crossed the Channel.

You can recognize me by not being able to sing at all (definitely not after having some beers)

I got this message when I log into Royal Mail: Your item, posted on 11/06/10 with reference ... has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in NETHERLANDS. I'm sure yours will be passed to the French postal service then

I'll let you know if they give me a reference, but more than likely, the table will just be booked under my name Christine Bonner. I'll probably arrive a bit earlier to have a couple of drinks before dinner. I see there is still a lot of tickets on Ebay. I'm looking for last minute bargain for my brother, he wants to come to the Glasgow gig, but couldn't afford a ticket as he's going to T in the Park this year. Hope to get a good seat for him at a cheap price. Looking forward to meeting you all!

Hi, Yes I did see that thanks, and it's an option. The ones i've seen on ebay are much better seats, i've seen ones in block aa8, as we speak the bid is £22.99 for 2 tickets with 1 day to go. There quite a few more I have my eye on which are in the front blocks. I'd like a good seat for him, the ones from lastminute.com are not very good blocks, but i'm keeping it in mind!

Hi, I'm going to jump in here, hope you don't mind, I have two seats in Row U in Block AA8 if you'd be interested for your brother. I can't seem to get rid of them, so I'd be willing to sell one for a bit less than face value if you're still looking for one. Seat 18? You can pm me here or email erin_h_456@hotmail.co.uk Ooh, and my Crowdsurge tickets came today! That's me all set now.

Beatles legend lines up Scots kids and Sharleen Spiteri for Hampden gig Jun 13 2010 Exclusive by Mike Merritt, Sunday Mail PAUL McCARTNEY has lined up a secret weapon for his first Scottish gig in 20 years - a school pipe band. The superstar ex-Beatle has enlisted members of Loretto Pipe Band to back him on smash-hit Mull of Kintyre at Hampden Park next Sunday. It's the only venue where the song will be played during his British tour. We can also reveal the rocker has recruited Sharleen Spiteri to join him on the bill. The private boarding school's band will provide 18 musicians - 15 pipers and three drummers. They'll be joined by three pipers and three drummers from East Lothian Pipes and Drums Trust. Simon Lowe, the head of expressive arts at the school in Musselburgh, East Lothian, said "We are jumping up and down over this. "We are used to playing before big crowds but nothing like this. "When we were offered the gig we jumped at the chance. I'm sure the band will be taking their autograph books with them." A spokesman for Sir Paul, 67, said "It's great to be using a young Scottish band. It should be a truly great night and an experience they will remember for the rest of their lives." Sir Paul recorded Mull of Kintyre in 1977 with the Campbeltown Pipe Band on Kintyre. The song was the first to sell more than two million copies in the UK and it stayed at No. 1 for nine weeks. Backing Macca is also a dream come true for Sharleen, who has revealed she learned her craft by singing Beatles' hits as a child. The 42-year-old said "My mum and dad always played his records at home. I actually learned how to do harmonies by singing along to hits such as Ticket To Ride, Help and Can't Buy Me Love." Sharleen is a close pal of Macca's daughters Mary and Stella and she will attend the superstar's 68th birthday party in London just 48 hours before the Hampden gig. The Glasgow date is Macca's first in Scotland since he sold out the SECC in 1990. He'll perform a string of classics including A Day In The Life, Back In The USSR and All My Loving. He added "It's always good to get back to Scotland because I've got a special affection for the wee place. I've never done Hampden before and it's legendary."
