What a soundcheck is like. This was definitely one of the largest, I'd estimate about 300 people. Excellent time! Fourteen songs mostly not played at show. Candlestick was awesome! Great weather and such an historic event! https://theta360.com/s/PAn Podgie (pay no attention to that sunburned man with thinning hair!) Monkey
Thanks, Podgie. Hunter, Mom and I are clearly visible in this pic. AWESOME!

Has anybody else noticed Paul wore exactly the same outfit as the filmed Japan show? Probably because it will be used in the new film/a new tour DVD so they can select the best songs?

Thanks for all these, and the ones from the show, too! Why was Princess Diana on the screen, by the way?

6000 fans were turned around because the event promoter, Another Planet Entertainment and the City of San Francisco did not provide enough parking (8,800 spots) for the mass of fans (50,000)! 4 hours stuck in gridlock traffic and 2 more hours (at the entrance to Candlestick) during the show driving around the stadium with the parking gates closed! "EPIC FAIL" to APE, Crowdsurge, Vividseats and Ticketmaster!! I am very disappoint in you! Although the show still went on, none of us got to see it! No thanks to you! Refunds are warranted!!! I don't see anything in your T&C's for this type of situation happening EVER, and I don't think you were prepared for it!!! "EPIC FAIL!!!"

I didn't know what the "butt wiggle" talk was about. Then, there it was during the guitar solo during "And I Love Her". Squee. http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/8-30-2014/FnDGTg.gif Also, why was San Francisco Bay Blues dedicated to Shelley, does she live here?
I was SOOO happy to see the "butt wiggle" @ Candlestick! Worth the entire price of the ticket. Thank you for posting the video...I never get tired of seeing it. And yes, Shelly is from S.F.

For up to 10,000 fans that were prevented from seeing this amazing show at Candlestick, we have started a petition demanding a refund from Another Planet Entertainment -- the concert promoter -- Please sign up at https://www.change.org/p/gregg-perloff-paul-mccartney-ticket-refund We also have started a FB Group and are seeking bringing a class action suit against the Promoter who has consistently refused to refund our $$ nor take any responsibility for their negligence and horrific management of the event. Please share our cause if you know anyone that missed the show due to the epic failure of APE. Namaste, -Mette

I have to say this again, what other 72 year old man can get women to squeal by doing that!

For anyone with tickets who missed the Candlestick show, if you bought your ticket with a credit card, try checking with your credit card company for a refund. I can't remember which one now, but there is at least one credit card company that will refund face value for a missed concert. I don't know the details, but take a look: https://www.google.com/search?q=credit+card+refunds+for+missed+concerts

Please sign this petition for change! 6000 fans were turned away because the promoter (Another Planet Entertainment) did not provide amble parking for attendees! Sold out show of 50,000 and only 8,800 parking spots! After the parking gates were closed, it backed up traffic all the way onto Hwy 101 because no other parking was available! Cars were in a gridlock with no where to go but back home! This was a show of epic porportions and the event organizer fell short of their responsibilites to the fans who never got to see the show! APE made a BIG profit off thousands of McCartney fans! We want full refunds! Please sign our petition for change! Thank you. https://www.change.org/p/gregg-perloff-paul-mccartney-ticket-refund

Isn't there a lawsuit against the promoter and the city being pursued, being discussed in another thread here? What good is a petition going to do? People should be contacting the concert promoters directly to address grievances and demand refunds. Good luck!
