The Stange things seen at a McCartney gig

The strangest thing that ever happened to me at a Paul McCartney concert was when some chick working undercover at the 2009 Atlanta Piedmont Park Concert approached me and said that she wrote "My Love." Yes. You read that correctly. Looking back, I'm sure that it was a security tactic to see if I was a terrorist or something -- being that I was one of the few people there with brown skin.
I bet she wrote Biker Like Icon instead... ops:

audi:
I take our boy's security seriously, but I was hurt and offended for weeks after that.
Sorry you had to go through that. No one should have to......
-
Audi, she was probably trying to impress you.
-
Maybe you caught her eye Audi that's one way to bring love into the conversation!

People who pay upwards of $200.00 a ticket and then try and talk through the entire concert. Pretty strange! :
I've seen people inebriated to the point where they probably never remembered they were at a Paul McCartney concert
This, both at the O2 & Cardiff. Even got beer spilt down the back of my dress. Charming! At least they were enthusiastic though!! :

Hope so! I really would love to blame someone else for that disaster of a song!

Strangest thing I've seen is 1990 @ Seattle Kingdome and seeing lots of Sgt.Pepper Paul's waiting in line for the Porta-potties!! Tons of people went in the Blue outfits for that show ..

Did they stand backward in line?

Well, she was definitely barking up the wrong tree, if you know what I mean. I still managed to make the most of the night, as evidenced in my video from that show (that's me screaming at 00:27):

I had to miss that show. Too hot, wet, and general admission. (Couldn't handle it in my 50's!)

Interesting, never knew the US had general admission shows (not counting venue gigs) at all for McCartney!

This was a one-off show at Piedmont Park (outdoors in the summer--100 degrees in the shade in Atlanta!)
-
I got tickets to that show early because one of Piedmont Park's Board Of Directors works at my job.

Wish I'd known you then Audi! I might have gone just to be able to share the experience with someone! (and you could have crashed at my house!)

Oh and I was at a Scotland show when only Paul's microphone was switched on when they opened with Venus and Mars and they had to start again it was strange as Macca froze on stage
-
Wasn't there also, some type of problem at the Apollo show.... The one where he played Hitchike and he had the dancers in the back?
-
My first Macca show, and when he played Here Today a white bird (dove?) flew past randomly across the stage. I hope most of you will understand why that was special. It certainly was a "moment" and quite a few fellow fans and I think Macca even reacted just slightly when he noticed it. Wow.

That is freaky! And isn't Julian's charity thing called White Feather because of something John said to him? Yes: http://www.julianlennon.com/charity/3-white-feather-foundation
