Loved watching the stream of Friday's show! Paul looked terrific of course, and seemed to be in good form musically. Couldn't help noticing that he seemed to be wearing the same shirt he wore in Wichita, or one very much like it.
Also noticed the brass players who are with him on this tour could be heard at the end, during the guitar jam just before "And in the end... the love you take is equal to the love you make." Had never heard the brass with the guitars before on that part of the number.
On a few of the songs, he cut out their usual introductions, and just began playing after a few moments of applause. "Maybe I'm Amazed" is one example I can think of.
It was a great concert, and from the looks of it, it seems like Paul is not wanting to slow down in the least, he's still going strong, and I like that.
Hi Lady Leslie! Love2Travel and I were right in front center stage! I know you saw us!

I must say this for the record, the 5 October 2018 footage being shown on Youtube, ARE NOT DOING ANY JUSTICE ON PAUL'S PERFORMANCE! He sounded so much better live!

Hi Lady Leslie! Love2Travel and I were right in front center stage! I know you saw us!
That's fantastic, so happy for you!! Will have to look at it again somehow to watch for you both! I was looking for you both in the crowd, lol. Glad you had such a wonderful experience, knew you would! Enjoyed reading your other posts about the concert, agreed with you about Paul warming up a bit as the concert went on, thought he really rocked, and was so terrific!!

love2travel here. I have to agree with jl4761. None of the You Tubes that I've seen, do any justice to the brilliant performance by Paul and the band!!! Wow, we were front and center and not back too far. The crowd was so excited to see Paul too... That's why I really enjoy festivals, they're so much more of a communal feeling.
Was really so excited to see that Paul played some tunes from his new album!!! We were singing away with the crowd and having a great time. jl4761 knows how to have a great time and has a booming voice too... I even heard him on the You Tubes LOL
Wish we could see the live show, Oobu's link didn't work.

love2travel here: Did Paul do a soundcheck for The Austin City Limits? Don't remember hearing one.

Found this video clip from the soundcheck, which the band did on Thursday, October 4. It was taken quite a ways back from the stage.

Why do you want to see it on video so bad, jl4, y'all were there at the concert and will be there next weekend...oh, is it cause you and LovestoTravel were so close to the stage "front and center," and you'll be shown in the audience...did you both wear Sgt. Pepper costumes? LOL, don't know where I got that idea, if you didn't

Hi Susy! I wasn't in Austin, I watched it on the livestream last night
. I live in Kansas City, Missouri, and was able to see Paul in concert in Wichita last year. Really like the east coast though, and am hoping to move back there sometime within the next year or two.

Hi Susy! I love that concert so much that I want to own it on DVD! I want to relive October 5, 2018 over and over again! If it doesn't get released, I promise that I will find it on bootleg DVD! L2T and I can't wait to see Paul again this coming weekend!

Found the whole concert on YouTube:
He really does sound in good voice. I do think he needs to give Come On to Me a bit more energy vocally, though. The instrumentation is fairly pulled back and relies on the vocal to drive it and the delivery's just a bit too laid-back, I think. It's like how he delivers the verses of Let Me Roll It which works for that song but not this.

I saw the vid up until "My Valentine," it was 4:30 a.m. and I finally conked out then, but they put on a very good and fun show, what I saw of it. I want to see it all. I even thought I saw Wix playing guitar in the background on one of the first numbers! Rusty struck some smashing poses and Paul had some fancy British sounding flourishes here and there in his vocals, which I liked. Paul played some intricate finger picking on his colorful, special, fancy red guitar he brought out! Their spot offered very high energy with the new horn section, which adds a lot, actually out in the midst of the audience during one song! Which offered striking visuals. The kids were packed in like sardines, and I couldn't pick JI4 and Luvs2Travel out of the massive crowd, in the crowd scenes displayed. Austin also had a big time with the recent huge music rally show Willy Nelson headlined for Democrat Senate contender Beto O'Rourke.
More excitement is upcoming with next weekend's Macca and Band Texas festival show ! Another big gig to anticipate !

And Abe was beating the hell out of his drums, it was super !

I just purchased both Paul McCartney Austin City Limits 5 October and 12 October 2018 shows on CD and DVD! Both DVD's and CD's are Pro-Shot and Soundboard and are factory pressed CD's and DVD's and not cheap CD-R's and DVD-R's! I'll let all of you know when I get them, I know they will be good.
