The Pat Simmons mentioned in that article is a girl I knew from Cleveland, OH! Went to her house in 1968 for a Beatles party (I believe we were all members of their fan club) and she had the Two Virgins album! (I was 13) Ran into her again in Atlanta at the 1978 Beatlefest!!

Wow, it's a small world! Since she knew the lady who took the photos (since she switched seats with her), she probably heard about the story of Paul and Linda being there. If you ever see happen to see her again, you'll have to ask her about it That's great you were a member of the Beatles fan club. It would have been difficult for Paul and Linda to disguise themselves really... only safe bet for them to go somewhat unrecognized and enjoy a concert would have been to watch it from a secure VIP area of a venue (if there was one)... or to watch from the wings of the stage with the roadies and crew, etc.

Love these! He was so handsome during that era.

The long hair was great!!!
-
Long & shaggy.
-
Great pics in the new deluxe set too! I haven't even gone through them all yet.
-
Love all of them. Thanks oobu! I agree that the shaggy look suited him. My first McCartney show was the 93 tour and these pictures bring it all back.

Thanks, DeniseLM227! He does look very handsome. To say that he's simply gorgeous would be an understatement! And don't get me started on his hair... *thud* we could create a whole thread just for that And thanks, oobu, for posting all the great Flowers in the Dirt photos! They're wonderful!
-
I believe we have had a hair thread. But it's best just to keep it all in one place. edit to add...in fact, in thinking about it, we had some heated discussions about his hair! The bad color, the length of his "bangs" & how they stick to his forehead during a performance...all very superficial. haha

I wonder who took the photo of the jeans, vest and acoustic guitar? There are so many great ones Buddy Holly, the April Fool ones, the one with the sun on his shirt...all great photos, every one!!! I really love the long hair period...he just always looks good... So these are these photos in the deluxe set ? Looking forward to getting that one too!!! The t-shirt for Flowers In The Dirt, came out really nice...I wonder how many t-shirts of Paul's that people have? I have a lot!!! Does anyone know when the t-shirt with the red guitar and all the fans on the front came out? I'm trying to find that one... A friend has that, it looks cool.

No, my pics were not necessarily in the boxset. I googled flowers. There is so much to go through. I haven't watched the dvd yet either. Did you buy the new Flowers shirt? I'd like that one. And the price isn't bad either if I remember correctly. I have the red guitar one. I hope that one still fits this year. I think it may be too big now.

What year was that from? The red guitar on black, right? Going to put in a search watch, on eBay... Got a cool Biker like an Icon t-shirt on eBay. It's so cool, it's like a Russian Icon. I have so many, including one for NEW, which a friend made...

THAT'S AMAZING!!! An original wings t-shirt!!! I saw Paul and Linda in 1989 with a good friend of mine. I think the tickets might have been $20, if that. Unfortunately, I didn't get near a merchandise booth, wait... I did get a program, so I probably could not afford a t-shirt. Good thing for us, eBay in's so sorry I missed the tour with the Magritte characters. Anyway, got to hear a lot of songs from Flowers in the dirt on that tour. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/paul-mccartney/1990/giants-stadium-east-rutherford-nj-13d19529.html I wonder what the t shirt was for that show. Every time I hear Venus and Mars...I think of that show. Didn't even know about Club Sandwich back then. No computers. So happy I did get to see Linda though. I remember thinking she was so cool, playing in a band. There weren't that many women doing that back then. Not like it is today.

My 1989/1990 t-shirt that I got in Atlanta (See date below) is white with Paul in b&w holding his Gibson Les Paul and wearing one of those crazy striped shirts he wore on the tour (some were yellow w/black, some were white w/black) There are red, blue, green and yellow lettering on the right that vertically spells Paul McCartney. The tour cities and countries are on the back. For some stupid reason I didn't buy a t-shirt in 1993, but I have ones from 2002, 2013 and 2014. I could kick myself for not buying a Wings t-shirt in 1976!
