Eeee Cor Blimey:
oh and i saw hidden in tiny small print on the BBC site that re their free audience tickets they give 75% to people in greater london as they are "local".
More likely the tix were given to the 75% of poms who were IN their locals.
What are poms and what does that mean? ("in their locals")

It really gets under my skin when I hear that Paul will only play in markets that guarantee a sell out. I just read in this article there are still $280 tickets left for tonight's show in Little Rock, seats in the lower bowl. http://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2016/apr/28/mccartney-s-one-on-one-20160428/?f=entertainment I thought he only played markets with sold out shows?

If you Google the word "Pom" you'll see is a derogatory term for English people. Quite useful is Google really.

We call our English cousins, poms. Locals are pubs.

Thanks Robert. I needed the explanation of the phrase as well as the definition of poms. And johnnymain, sometimes we just want a friend to tell us what they mean, instead of running to Google every second!

This video was just posted on Paul's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/PaulMcCartney/videos/vb.182736663312/10154264764773313/?type=2&theater My guess is is that it's teasing the mega concert in Indio in October.

Bob Dylan, The Who, and Roger Waters also have similar vids on their FB pages: Dylan video: https://www.facebook.com/bobdylan/videos/10156802076230696/?hc_location=ufi Roger Waters video: https://www.facebook.com/rogerwaters/videos/1082542875122850/ The Who video: https://www.facebook.com/thewho/videos/10153405616802331/

I've seen every one of these artists individually (Paul, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Roger Waters) in their own normal headlining shows numerous times. Good enough for me. Festivals are too much of a hassle.

I will pass on this. If it was 1985, I would be there!

It's a legendary lineup, but I just can't get excited about standing in a giant open air field all day, for 3 days.... Give me a show in a regular theater or an arena. I guess I'm just spoiled.

It sounds amazing on paper and I'm sure there will be additional special guests and maybe even some crossover jams...but that's a lot of big egos in one weekend, and all those guys probably think they should be THE headliner. Obviously I see Paul every chance I can, but outside of The Who, I don't really have any interest in this lineup anyway...and I just saw them in March and honestly, once was enough.

You do what you want, guys. As for me, I am looking at airplane ticket prices to fly to the US in October!

Is this a separate concert or this "October" festival they're talking about?
