^hiya! Yeah that was me with my sister, we did the 4 gigs
Was it liverpool you saw us? If so yeah it was hard getting out - and the venue staff were so rude! Had a sweeping brush up our backsides practically trying to push everyone out of the rows as soon as lights up! Plus, and i kid you not, a staff member knocked on the loo door after liverpool to get me to hurry up so they could close - i kid you not!! I wouldn't mind but when i came out there was still about 10 other women still in loos! I really hate that arena... 
But i love Paul - the gig was fantastic!!!! I should have spotted you, i'm in a world of my own after a gig though!Yes, it was Liverpool. All 4 gigs awesome, way to go!!! Where were you sitting in Birmingham? I understand the great mood after one of his concerts! I'm usually good remembering faces so I thought that was you.

We were row P middle block in Birm - 14th row, 8th row middle block 1st london, front row side block 2nd london (that one was a soundcheck package), and 2nd row middle block liverpool
(from a tout.. the tix had "slo tix" on them - that's shelley's company to do with Paul isn't it? Looks like touts had all the 2nd row, all from slo tix) Quite a week!!!! I owe my sister a fortune seeing as she paid for all the tickets 
Where were you sat? I'm having "post tour blues" at the moment

You had great seats for all the shows. I believe slo tix is or was Shelley's company. For Birmingham I was in the middle block row 3 and for Liverpool, middle block row 7. I landed the day of the Birmingham show checked in to my hotel in Liverpool and just made it!

I owe my sister a fortune seeing as she paid for all the tickets Where were you sat? I'm having "post tour blues" at the moment I think i was in the seat behind you for 2nd O2 show - I beleive you or your sister is a very tall lady!
-
both ladies are tall but very dainty.
-
Awwww Peter - nicest thing you've ever said about us!!
And yeah Boggle, that would have been us - i'm sorry for being tall! I do know how it must feel to be behind us as i'm often stuck behind someone who is about 6 foot 5 and i grrr to myself til i remember this is what it's often like for people behind us But you just can't help being tall! For the record i'm the short one in the family - i'm 6 foot 0, my sister (who wore the black t shirt) is 6 foot 2! 6 foot isn't that above average for a gig though, but if it's someone who is 5 foot 5 behind it's tough on them i know - they should come in huge heels maybe! We were very lucky with tickets, one gig being the package of course but for birm and 1st london we were great, we originally had terrible liverpool seats but the day before the gig when online touts started panicking and dropping prices slightly my sister said lets just go for it it may be the last time we see him! (
) so we got the 2nd row ones. -
I always say nice things to lady's whom I like and have a kind heart. The pair of you didn't bat an eyelid about changing seats with in L'pool 2011. Though it stopped you running down to the front and flashing the boobies at Paul. And , whenever I have met you since there is always a smile and a kind word from you. If I wasn't so modest I would even say some flirting on your part. Pick yourself off the floor. Only thing better than making a woman laff is a child's laff. was lovely to see the pair of you again, even if you are man city fans, looking so young, vital and happy. But where were the blokes!!! Sorry, for you witnessing my chat up lines, but you want to have seen your faces 
. But you shouldn't have laffed at her response . I was seated for lots of Saturday sound check and the hour at the concert, was a bit teary leaving and mortified at the thought if he (GOD) saw me; and spent a fair time seated on sunday, I just close my eyes and drift etc away so tall people don't bother me. But had I been behind you, your bum would have been at my teeth level, so I was would have just bitten it. Luckily these days my teeth are removable. -

hehe ahhh you make me smile you do, i think you're great! And yeah, how did that woman stood on the front row know your name? You bolted so fast after that hehe! My other half stays at home with Paul gigs, we've been together over 20 years now so he's well trained in my love of Paul (has little choice!!) - he did get to see Paul when it was the Covent Garden mini gig and i tease him about how excited he looked to be seeing Paul, it's catching isn't it So Peter, did you buy the PMc everton shirt then??! -
Here are a few photos i took at Birmingham https://www.flickr.com/photos/bogglesautographs/sets/72157651664223724

My face and name must be still up on "Badchatuplinesandbaddates.com" never met her in me life, honest
: . Met her on here years ago and at the Roundhouse 07 and Anfield 08. the poor child has now seen him 3 times only for me to be there each time 
Well the chat up line wasn't my worst, it was just the follow up. And , I know how hard she can punch so I legged it. My niece doesn't think it is catching offered her my beatle stuff or my porn in my will a few years ago, she chose the porn. The PMc ****** shirt did I hell. Ta for sharing the pictures Boggles , smashing lots again. -

connection issues long story short but can finally log in. Birmingham show was great fun. Set list same as London O2 Night 1. Happy to have Can't Buy Me Love back in the set after how many years?? Loved hearing Temporary Secretary!! and Another Girl,always on my Beatles song bucket list for him to do one day. Nobody got called on stage during the show or during soundcheck. I don't have the whole list for soundcheck and my memory is not good enough to remember them all but highlights for me: he did Leaning on a Lampost, Hope of Deliverance (by request!!! it was brilliant), One After 909, and most of the other usual songs.
I was praying for Hope Of Deliverance and it was my "loudmouthed lout" of a mate Phil who had the guts to yell out a request for it, seconded by Anita. Phil and I were singing along and Chris came up to us and filmed us so who knows when we shall see that footage!
Just caught the souncheck video on YouTube, brilliant request for "Hope of Deliverance" ! It seems they put quite a bit of work into it, would be nice to have it in the setlist at some point. One song I'd like him to unearth from OFT is "C'Mon People" too, such a great song that people could sing to and GOOMW is not a shabby rocker either.
-
Yeah thanks for the pics Boggle. And Peter i just found out that the people my sister knows from work who had our spare liverpool tickets (as no one from here even sniffed at them!) LEFT after let it be to "beat the traffic" as they thought it had nearly finished!!
They missed Live and let die onwards.... how can people be so casual?! Oh well... their loss -
I left during lady Madonna and there was no traffic. 4 people in front of me left on the sunday before an hour was gone. one couple think it was too loud for them and people standing by their body language and the other the bloke wasn't well. I didn't mind meant I could see 3 young ladies dance and shake. Couple beside me were well into their pension years and stood most of the night right till the end.

It Was a great night a fantastic gig Paul's voice sounded fine better then the last gig i saw in Manchester 2011 to many great moments to mention but loved hearing Eight Days a week, Listen to the man said, my valentine, Hope for the future, Hi Hi HI and the 3 songs from New Temporary Secretary sounded great and was something id never thought i would hear live a wonderful night Cant Wait For Next Time
-
A month ago yesterday. Time flies indeed! Here is badass Paul:
"You looking at me punk?"

HI everyone. just wondering if anyone filmed band on the run in Birmingham? Ive been searching youtube, but can't find any clips of this song. When he does that "air kick", he kicks at me! That's why I want to find it. Thanks!
