I can use my mileage to fly for free but I need money for hotels and stuff. I've been unemployed for the last 3 months
Damn...Who can you stay with while there? ETA: We've got enough SA members here that someone should be able to help you out with a place to stay!
That would be great! But those cities where Paul is going are not as big as Rio or Sao Paulo (I think) so not many on this forum are from those cities (I think again).

LOL! Why Not? "Concert for Javilu" sounds nice.

(in my best Jerry Lewis voice)... "OK, Ed, I hear we have a tote on the pledge-board! Let's see it! Do it! Do it!" $0,000,008.19!!!!

How about no opening act and no DJ? In 1993 McCartney had his own music piped through the sound system as people took their seats, then a 15 min. film then BAM!!! Paul and band on stage! PERFECT!!!
yeah but it was a film of animals being slaughtered. Not the best move on any account.

Well, they're important enough for Paul to mention their tenth anniversary of playing with him. I'll take it a step further and insist that they've all earned the right to open the show with a handful of their original songs.
I'd much prefer this than the DJ, why would anybody not want to see this? I'd take live music as the support act any day.
I'd prefer the DJ with Paul's music rather than unfamiliar music from the 'band'.
Going to a show and seeing a new artist play a half hour set that makes you go "wow, those guys are really good" can be a real highlight. Like I said, not necessarily the band but some up an coming talent.
And what if they are crap?
Ted Nugent's Whiplash bash made a tradition out of starting with a crap band. Each year, the band would get booed off the stage and the roadies would come out and walk around for an hour. I think it was done on purpose because one year he had Honeymoon Suite. Not the best band in the world but far from crap and they played like crap that night to get booed.

I agree. I asked for a burger, not how it was made.

That was the whole point. To gross you out about eating meat. Animal torture isn't pretty. You had to listen to the sermon before you got the goodies. It wasn't meant to make you feel good, and Paul and Linda both wanted you to feel it. And if you still remember it, very effective I'd say.

I didn't see any slaughtered animals video when I first saw Paul (Dec 1993) so it must have been screened during the previous tour.

Was definitely used on the 1993 US tour. It was very graphic,and after seeing it at my first show, I couldn't watch it again at subsequent gigs. I had to turn away during the animal parts. Yes,the message was very effective. I think the film is on YouTube but I can't link now (stupid iPad).

Maybe they dropped it for the Argentinean leg of the tour after having a tasty steak?
