I'm the happiest girl alive. I just got back from the tattoo parlor and I'm still in complete shock. It was the happiest moment of my life. I still can't think of the proper words to express how I feel. I'm just so unbelievably, thoroughly happy. Alvita

Thanks for the nice comments on my pics! I used a Canon SX200IS last night and was pleasantly surprised with the shots I was able to get! Seats were in section 102, so the LALD pyro shot is a good representative of where I actually was.
They really are good, very sharp!! Thanks for sharing

This was my 3rd time seeing Paul and it was amazing as always! I am still on a high from the show and am so tempted to go scalp tickets tonight. Here are some pics pennywhistlelane: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jdkphoto/sets/72157624761314872/
Wowza . . .great pics. Can I ask what kind of camera you used? I'm assuming the pic of the LALD pyros was where your actual seats were? Thanks for posting them
I was just going to ask the same thing, and although I had not thought to add the Wowza, it fits!
LOL . . .not sure if I meant wowza or yowza . . .either one seems OK tho

I haven't seen any pix with the coat off yet. Does anyone have any to post? If not, what color suspenders this time? Lolly
Black suspenders. I did not take any pix. Too busy dancing, singing, cheering, smiling and tearing ! We tried to get tickets for tonight but the seats available are really bad for 250 bucks. We decided to walk away. Make some noise tonight Pittsburgh ! The show is mind blowing !

I was there and I was so happy for you girl! That must have been the most exciting moment ever! One question...when you hugged him...how did he smell?!

Congratulations Alvita and welcome to the board!!! Your tat looks great! My husband and I saw you on the screen earlier in the evening and commented on how pretty you were and how much we liked your shirt! Did you buy or make that shirt?

I was there and his supenders were a light grey...I think, not real sure since my veiw was very limited...someone say they would have the jumbotro but all we had was a smaller scene to the side...like watching t.v. big whoop!! No details...I'm giving up...I'm burned out...and my bank acc. is flatlined!! I just can't afford to be a Paul McCartney fan! I had a life altering moment in Pittsburgh and I can't live like this anymore...I wish all you webbies luck and happiness!!

The Good: Paul looked and sounded awesome! The sound quality in the new arena was good, kudos to Paul's sound engineers. This is the first time I could hear everything he was saying clearly and without echo/distortion. Not that I don't have his "script" memorized already!
Although he did talk about his guitars and Les Paul a bit, which I have never heard him do before. The new center was great and they were right when they said there wasn't a bad seat in the place. We were in section 213, row B and even tho we were high up, we still had a good view. I also liked the openness of the arena too. I was a bit disappointed that Paul didn't call me up onstage and sing "Michelle" to me, but I still enjoyed the show! Highlights for me included: Two of Us, Highway, Paperback Writer and Mrs. Vanderbilt. The Bad: This was the lamest crowd I have ever seen at a Paul show. NOT ONE PERSON in our section stood up and danced or even stood up at all. And looking around the center it didn't look like ANYONE was standing or dancing except for people on the floor. As soon as Paul came out I jumped up and started screaming and felt like an idiot because everyone else just sat there. I stood and danced for several songs by myself and thank goodness no one complained. When we were leaving and older gentleman that was sitting behind us with his wife said he was enjoying watching me dance and enjoy myself. I wish I would have known that earlier - I would have danced every song! The Ugly: Some lady standing in line a the merch both accused my sister of stealing a shirt! She was really loud and obnoxious about it and made my sister feel awful. What happened was, my sister and I were at two different merch booths on the phone with each other. She bought her shirt and then got in line again to save a space for me. I got to the booth and got in line and then my sister stood off to the side and waited for me. This woman saw my sister and started going off on her. She was like "I just saw you standing in line and now you're over there with that shirt. What did you do steal it?" She just kept going on and on, it was awful. I'm not sure what this woman's problem was, my sister was mortified that someone would accuse her of that and was really upset. Once Paul came on, she did have a great time however! All in all it was not my favorite Paul show, but it was still an AWESOME TIME! It was nice to be able to drive right from my house to the show! -
EPIC!!!!!!!!!

My husband and I saw you on the screen earlier in the evening and commented on how pretty you were and how much we liked your shirt! Did you buy or make that shirt? Thank you! I'm still reeling from the moment. Every time I tell a friend or relative or stranger what happened I get shaky and start to cry. I wonder if that will ever fade? Probably not! I did make the shirt myself! I always looked around for cool Beatles or Wings shirts and never found exactly what I was looking for until one day I just decided to make them exactly how I wanted them. That was a t shirt until last Monday. I didn't really know exactly where I wanted him to sign. So, I I decided that if my wildest dreams actually came true, I'd let Paul decide where he thought it would look best, and he did! I cut the shirt into a tube top because I wanted Paul to be able to have a clear view to decide where he wanted to sign! He picked a beautiful spot, but I guess I am a little biased )
