Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over it. 5 feet more is nothing. Really childish to be complaining for this long over such a stupid issue. Get over yourselves.

I'm just glad I didn't pay $300 for front row that's really 5th row!

$2000???? Damn! No wonder people are unhappy with that effect! For the life of me, HOW does that rising platform get McCartney closer to the people in the back or a better view of him? He is still the same distance away from them. He should have had an extended mechanical platform like in 93, MUCH better and more effective IMO.

That's the price with soundcheck though.

Still. $300 for the concert, $1700 to watch the band get the sound right and run through a few tunes. From far away. And first row tickets that end up being 5th row. Not sure I would like that.

Excuse me? Was writing a letter to MPL necessary over a 5-10 ft. gap. Relax. You sound like a spoiled brat. Again, it really must suck to be 5 feet back more from Paul. Ouch, that really requires a letter to MPL. It's like getting mad that.... Oh wait, you can't compare this situation to anything else because it's just. So. Stupid.

KingMacca, You are really being mean and nasty. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Okay, so you don't agree. You are now getting vicious over something you say isn't a big deal. Please just let it go. I wasn't happy about the platform either. Turns out....it wasn't so bad. Sure, I would love to be closer, but I got everything out of the experience that I wanted...and more!!!!!!! Even with a tall guy directly in front of me.....it was heaven being right in front of Paul!!!!!!! Of course, now I understand the addiction and I want it again. If I had the money, I would definitely do it again!!!!!!

No need to discuss this at all really. Since night one, we've had reports that the riser doesn't interfere with the stage distance so let. it. go. :

Ok. Sorry, I was a bit angry. It's still a ridiculous issue, and I don't think it requires a petition or an underground movement. That's all. Sorry if I came off a bit rude and mean. Harley's cool, I just didn't like the quick, smart response.

Glad you enjoyed it george_e_girl! I'm doing my second ever soundcheck in Indianapolis in July! I NEVER thought I'd do it twice because of the cost. But...my unreasonable side got the best of me - and I'm so thrilled it did!

Lucky Duckie!! Glad for ya!

The problem was that it was not just a 5 feet difference. It was more like 10 feet. I agree with kitty and dappa that he should have walked out on the extension more often.

No worries. Sorry I was a little bossy. It's okay if we all don't agree on things, but I like to see people getting along here....of all places. This should be a fun place to be! Doesn't mean we can't vent or express our opinions, but we need to respect each other and our differences.

That's great!!!! I hope I can do it a second time too!! I went into it thinking it was a one time deal, but how can you not want that experience again!! The sound check was just amazing!!!!!! A private concert of mostly songs that were not being played at the big show....what a treat!!!! Two Paul concerts in one night!!!! My friend Linda and I are hoping to be able to get tickets for Indianapolis, even if we have to go through a broker. Hope we are able to get something in a few weeks, after I have time to save some money. I'll have to settle for something farther away and less expensive this time. Enjoy the show!!!!!! I know you will!!

Actually, the platform seemed to add an extra 20+ feet, imo. (however i didn't bring my tape measure!) I was 2nd row floor for Orlando night #2..... But I can't complain too much since i didn't pay any crazy VIP package price (regular $250+$25 in fees). I got lucky with the Crowdsurge presale. Just caught it at the right time.)
