Any pictures of the area around the stadium?
The stadium is lit up in Union Jack colors. Also, I met one of Paul's stagehands on Instagram, and it is a regular stadium show set up, but the roof is enclosed, so it'll be a stadium/arena gig. It's looking like its going to be a great night. The stage is set, Paul came in last night. Everybody is pumped. I am too, for I have a front row seat, right on Twitter

What a day! Anyone else think Paul woke up this morning, looked out at the blue sky, the ocean, and the snow-capped mountains and said to himself, "why haven't I been back to this city for 50 years??!"

Where did you hear this? Great news, if true. My biggest worry about Springsteen joining the show is that it could bump Mull of Kintyre!

Thanks so much everyone for your replies and suggestions. You're a great bunch of people! Getting REALLY excited, not sure what to do with myself for the next 3-ish hours. It's a beautiful day here, and the chance that he might play Mull of Kintyre is very exciting! Let's do this!!!! Susie

Hi, sorry if t his is in the wrong section, I wasn't sure where to post. My aunt in Edmonton has 2 floor tickets to sell. They are for the Hot Soundcheck package, and she is going, so if someone wanted to do the soundcheck they could do so by meeting her at the venue. Or if not, they could just buy them for the concert. She's open to best offer. If anyone is interested, direct message me, or if you have any suggestions for where else to post or who might be interested, I would appreciate the advice! Thanks!
Soundcheck tickets are not transferable. You need to prove who you are.
I realize the soundcheck portion isn't transferable, unless they were to meet and enter the soundcheck with her (as part of her group), but I thought the hard tickets on their own would still gain access to the concert, as plain old floor seats...is that not correct?
There was somebody in St. Louis who bought the ticket portion of the package from Stub Hub and got in to the concert. If I were you, I'd post it in the Edmonton thread: http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=84924&start=105

Oh no, can't have the possibility of Mull of Kintyre bumped! If he is considering performing that song, PLEASE don't bump it for Bruce!

To everyone who is going to be there tonight: Have a great time! I am *sooooooooooooo jealous! My sister is going to be there with her teenage son and neither of them has ever been to a Macca concert before. I know that they are both going to have the time of their lives!

To each of my fellow boardies who have posted their well wishes to all of us who will be in attendance at this evening's concert: thank you and know that I will be channeling some of that good Macca energy to all of you (hey, it's the west coast after all and therefore we are entitled to a bit o' that flakey channelling good energy stuff ) WOO HOO!!! 2:

Have a great time, Patrice! Is there any way you'll be able to check in here during the concert to let us know what's happening, what the set list is, whether Bruce shows up, what songs he sings with Paul if Bruce does show up there tonight, whether or not Paul actually does Mull of Kintyre, etc etc etc? If not, I guess you'll post an update for us here right after the concert, or when you get home?

Everyone have a great time! WOO HOO!!!!!!

I can't post pix but besides the union jack colors, there is a big screen on the outside of the building (facing Robson & Beatty) which is showing footage of Paul performing, and then a big On The Run sign that said Welcome to Vancouver. . Mull will not be bumped for Bruce, as I said in earlier posts it is pretty much a given for Canadian gigs other than those in Quebec. If Bruce shows up he will just join in on a song or they will swap something else out. Not Mull.
