My husband and I went to the North Little Rock concert last night. I had a great time. AHDN is one of my favorite songs. (Watched the movie many times). Got teary eyed during "Here Today" especially with so many people saying Paul may not tour much longer. Paul teased about Little Rock and Roll. Talked about Little Rock's history before he sang "Blackbird". Saw Paul during the limo watch. Thrilling for about one second. LOL Went to the fan get-together before the concert at an Irish Pub. Fantastic. Loved meeting a bunch of fellow fans. What a treasure Paul McCartney is.

CONGRATS! The group hug with Paul jumping up and down made me laugh!
I couldn't believe he called us back over to do a jumping group hug! He was so nice too! He was laughing with us.

There were four girls from Memphis and Mississippi who were on stage before the proposal. They had lighted signs that just said "please bring us up on stage.". So Paul said, "well girls, you're on stage."
That was us! It was incredible to hug him!
I bet it was! You all were adorable. congrats!

My daughter and I were at the show tonight. She had a sign that said "Babe for Abe". While Paul was singing Blackbird up on the platform, a security guard pointed out the sign to Abe and Abe blew a kiss, waved, pointed, and raised his glass of wine for her. A few songs later, the same security guard brought over a pair of used drum sticks from Abe. Then Paul's VIP coordinator Shelley gave us two guitar picks! What a night!
We met your daughter! We were 2 rows in front of you, and she was so excited! That was so cool...very happy for her!!

That was great!! So happy for you! We saw him at the hotel before the show and 3 in our group got high fives from him. Exciting to see him up close. We've loved him since 1964! Loved your signs!! Great job!!

My mate and his wife were there and had a marvellous time. The crowd was up, enthusiastic and loud. Looked at some clips and Paul sounded pretty good on the whole, I thought.

Had a great time at the show in Little Rock! My Memphis pal, Cassidy Todd, and her group were invited up on stage to meet Paul!

It boggles the mind that people pay big money for tickets, only to watch over half the show through a phone screen. (nevermind distracting all the other people around them with a bright glow the entire time...) It's fine to take a few quick photos or a very short video clip, and then put it away, but videoing 20 songs? Sorry, that's excessive. And really, try to live in the moment. You're there!

No worse than ignorant dickheads (drunk or otherwise) who pay to go to a concert and insist on talking all the way through it...ruining the night for those around them.

Anyone who have seen the Verizon Soundcheck??

Fletch, so cool that you know Cassidy. How very exciting for them. I plan on watching your videos as soon as I have a chance and relive those wonderful moments. Had such a great time at the concert (and pre-concert get-together).

Side note....Do we really need to have the same negative response on every single concert thread? Yes, Paul's voice isn't what it used to be, but to read the same exact criticism on every concert thread gets a bit monotonous. There is an entire thread devoted to discussions regarding the vocal aspect of the performances.
When Paul starts putting on shows that aren't repetitive and monotonous, we'll stop being repetitive and monotonous with our complaints. Thanks.
maybe Paul should just give the US circuit a rest for a year and play in new and exciting corners of the globe whilst he still can
