Tickets always bear doors open time, not show-time. Artists like Paul never publish start time - they love to keep us guessing. It avoids attendees staying in bars and restaurants till the 59th minute and trying to rush in at the last moment. Martin

Every concert stub I've went to Martin always bear the concert start time. St. Louis said 8:00PM and doors were at 6:30. The only way you knew of the door time as it was changed that day, was to ask the arena officials. Sometimes stubs will indicate both times, i.e. 8:00PM - DOORS AT 7:00PM. Either way, a 5:00 door is still really early. There must be an opening act. I still expect Paul to start at 8:00 or 8:30. Maybe 7:00 at the earliest.

I'm going! I was lucky enough to use this website's pre-sale, and I will be in the presence of Sir Paul McCartney once again! And yes, it would be very cool to meet up with board people, just to say "hello!"

The presale page lists the show at 5pm. Is this accurate? It hardly seems possible. Even with Paul getting on the stage his usual 1 hour late, that puts the Live and Let Die number around 8 or 8:30 when it's still light out.
Even my ticket receipt lists the show at 17:00, which is 5pm
Are you sure that's not the doors at 5:00. I know in St Louis they changed the doors at the last minute from 7:00 to 6:30. It was nice having longer to get in and relax before the show. Maybe Paul is planning on playing for 5-6 hours on this tour!!
There are noise ordinances for Fenway because it is in a residential area. The show HAS to be done by 11:00. Last time he played Fenway he started EARLY, around 7:30 one night, and I think by 7:45 the next night. So doors open early because he goes on stage early. This was a big deal last time he was there and the city would not approve the permit if promises were not made to have the show over by 11:00 (and he kept his promise last time!)

See my post about Boston noise ordinances. Paul will start early!

I agree mine all show the show time. Never heard this before.

Stubhub seating chart shows a runway coming from the middle of the stage.... It said in the interview that he would have a platform that will take him into the crowd... There will be a new stage design

What interview said this? Link, please. If he uses a platform it's thanks to Springsteen taking him out onto his last year at Hyde Park.

Stubhub no longer shows the platform. I saw it and captured the image earlier. I can't imagine it being added as a surprise, and that removes quite a few of the highest priced seats. If people posted their seat locations in A3 we may be able to figure it out - true or not. Podgie (i don't think the platform will be there) Monkey

I don't think so either. I did see the Stubhub seating chart before they took it down. I bet they just used one from another concert. And the one that the Red Sox have up does not show any platform, you would think that they would have the correct seating chart for their own show.

Driving from Prince Edward Island, Canada with my 4 year old son to see this show. It will be my 4th and his 1st. Neither one of us can wait!!! Any tips for what a 4 year old might like to do in Boston on our down time??
