@little-laura The same only minus his wife! 😂

Had quite a hot spell here for a while, tho it's a bit cooler now. Have to have my air conditioner set on "fan" tho, because of the smoke from all the wildfires. Don't want the smoke in my suite! But that means it's not as cool in here as the "air conditioner" setting. Oh well, could be worse. At least I still have a place.

It has been quite a while. I was too caught up with my life's drama, then my bleepin' password refused to work. Sigh. This doesn't mean I haven't been keepin' my eye on Paul. Ofcoursenot! Missed being here. Still me usual kooky self.

@dm12345
That sounds like the Paul that I’ve grown up, to admire, appreciate and love. One can only try to follow his lead and the passion of his kind heart in helping other people and animals. We are so blessed to have Paul and Ringo and John and George to show us in songs and their good words, what it means to be a better person, to make a difference in our world and to care for our fellow people and also our fellow creatures.

I went to a Broadway web site and poster asked question about this and somebody answered today. See below.

"He was talked into the project by Bill Kenwright, the don of cheap-as-chips touring in the UK, who had been his classmate at the Liverpool Institute when they were kids. BK has never been great at keeping too many plates spinning; he's got four productions running right now -- Heathers in London and on tour, Blood Brothers on the road (again), Ian McKellen in Frank and Percy, a musical of Calendar Girls, and Twelve Angry Men (which you wouldn't think would sell in the UK, but who knows, it seems to have "names" that would at least sell tickets in the provinces).

I think the show is neither Bill's nor Paul's biggest priority right now."

@kㅤ Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi, my name is Rachel and I live in Brazil, in Fortaleza.

I know you are doing the vip tour on the Paul Maccartney tour here and I want to send in a little question actually it will be a gift for me and my boyfriend.

My boyfriend and I are in a long distance relationship and this show is our chance to see each other after a long time apart. He and I are huge fans of the former beatle, this international icon but, due to financial circumstances, we couldn’t go to his concert together. I bought the ticket with a little difficulty, but I couldn’t give him this gift. We got to know each other in a way that we would never have expected and it’s no coincidence that the Beatles’ songs are important to both of us, because they calm us down and remind us, some in particular that no matter the distance, we’ll always have one another. other. I’m going to the concert in Brasilia, hoping to get him there somehow, and I’ll send a message to whoever it is and tell them our story, because I wanted to live this unique moment with the man who saw me when even I couldn’t see myself properly.

Thanks guys

I couldn't agree more Yankeefan on "More I Cannot Wish You". I also like Paul's vocals on songs like "Accentuate the Positive, Always and Get Yourself Another Fool". The "Kisses" CD really grew with me after I got used to Paul's older voice.

@njr

Only reason I said "floral" skirt was because that it was the article called it. I think you are probably right, and the article is wrong. Just shocking -lol. I agree clean shaven is better look on Paul but if you are going to have facial hair, do it right and let it fully grow in.

@rebeccajane9 I know what you mean! I always say that if I were to meet Paul face to face, after dreaming for decades of meeting him, I would hyperventilate and/or just pass out, then I would miss the opportunity because by the time I would wake up, he'd be gone!!

(1) …one of my ongoing annoyances in life is people thinking they can rewrite Paul's lyrics to make them more "logical."
(2) I've always taken the radical position that Paul knew exactly what he was doing.
(3) Great art is rarely neat or logical.
(4) In the case of "Yesterday came suddenly," he's expanding the song's timeline to look beyond the immediate disappointment he's experiencing now.

(1) I’m not trying to rewrite the song. I’m showing strong internal evidence that an error has crept in, and that Paul’s original intention was “yes, today came suddenly”.
(2) Like any human, Paul can make mistakes, and many of his mistakes are on record.
(3) (“Great”?) art may not always have to be neat and logical, but sometimes (whether “rarely” or not) it must be logical in order to achieve the artist’s intention.
(4) The song’s timeline is a period of less than 48 hours. “Suddenly I’m not half the man I used to be” is in the present tense – being uttered “today”. So “yesterday came suddenly” cannot be made to fit using any fanciful rationalization.

Hey guys,

Longtime Beatles/McCartney fan here and first time posting/new member on the Maccaboard.

I’m going to see Paul McCartney play Adelaide in October on his Australian Got Back Tour and I am beyond excited. I spent more than I’ve ever spent on a concert ticket in my life and secured a ‘Hot Sound Package’ which includes an invite to the pre-show sound check.

A lifetime dream of mine has been to meet Paul McCartney - even if just to shake his hand and a possible quick photo.

Does anyone know if there’s any chance of meeting Paul at the sound check?

I’d love the opportunity to meet Paul in Adelaide - any tips on how to make this happen?

I just thought if Paul takes a moment to meet and greet fans, say leaving his hotel or arriving/leaving the sound check, I’d love the opportunity to be at the right place at the right time.

If you’ve got any hot tips when Paul is in Adelaide post them here!

I know this is probably unlikely but hey, is worth asking!

Cheers,

Simon

Is anyone looking for two tickets for Sydney on Saturday October 28? I have two spare tickets in Section A5 on the floor (marked red below). I have listed them for sale at face value ($400.40 Australian) on the official Ticketek resale site (https://marketplace.ticketek.com.au/fantofan). Note that all of the seats shaded blue are A Reserve, so these are pretty good tickets!

Please note that Ticketek Marketplace is a quirky site that doesn't seem to work well when the main Ticketek site is busy. If you have trouble with the site (e.g., it is very slow or gives you an error message), I suggest that you try again either very early in the morning of late at night in Australian Eastern Standard Time.

The ticket buying experience for this one was much better than the first date announced. I was worried as it was a general sale.

@musicdad
If I were given the correct link/code to begin with, the $80 tickets wouldn't be going for $19,500 dollars right now on scalper sites...
