Man, Some Party last night! Wow!!! I kinda remember the gang of us ending up at that curvy thing down by the river, climbing it, then all of us jumping up and down on top. The can of black spray paint, as we climbed back down. Couldn't really admire the work till this morning in the daylight, though! http://i573.photobucket.com/albums/ss178/PodgieTheMonkey/98F7D0DC-F09C-464C-B1EC-FDFCD2AA93CE-137-0000000523382E4B.jpg Podgie (I will always have great memories of St Louis!)

I have seen Paul four times now. And -- believe me -- he never sang better in the previous three concerts than he did tonight. The man brought it tonight. That was the biggest surprise for me: He was Paul McCartney in nearly top vocal form.
That's when I say "I told you so"... about the shot vocals and all that. Now, it can perfectly happen than the next concert is not as good as this one, and then the third is even better than this. Paul is unpredictable. And most importantly... he has always been this way, for more than half of a century. Could he sing Hey Jude this time?

Band on the Run was messed up in lyrics. Don't know whether one of the band members messed up their part which led to Paul messing up lyrics or what. But it was messed up lyric wise. Totally, completely Paul zonked!

The main reason I said I think I've seen Paul for the final time is that I don't anticipate him coming back to the Midwest anytime soon. Honestly I kinda hope he doesn't; I want him to give more people who haven't seen him the opportunity. He really was phenomenal vocalswise! Best one of the three I've seen for me; when it was all over I just couldn't stop crying for being so overwhelmed!

Paul and his band put on an incredible show last night in St. Louis. He played for two and a half hours and the only break he took was for just a minute or two between encores. In his first full concert since May, he was in great voice and exhibited boundless energy. The set list was similar to the one he's been using the past year. Magical Mystery Tour replaced Hello Goodbye as the first song. My Valentine replaced Come and Get It. And I Love Her replaced I Will. Encore #1 featured Lady Madonna, Birthday, Day Tripper and Get Back. Encore #2 featured Yesterday, Helter Skelter and the Abbey Road medley. Here are a few highlights from the show: * He removed his collarless jacket a few songs in and proclaimed this to be "my one wardrobe change of the evening". He later said that switching instruments so often was "just us showing off". * He playfully asked the crowd if we wanted to be called "St. Looie or St. Lewis". We voiced our preference for the latter. * Lead guitar player Rusty muffed part of the solo on And I Love Her, so Paul made him do just that part again! * Paul told a story about the audience members holding signs. He joked that he shouldn't notice the signs because he gets distracted and might forget lyrics or chords. But he also admitted he sees the signs anyway! * Drummer Abe did some entertaining dance moves (including his own version of the Macarena!) during Dance Tonight. * Among the biggest cheers of the night came when he mentioned George (the ukelele story preceeding Something) and John. * The pyrotechnics during Live and Let Die wowed the crowd. * Scary moment during The End. When Paul got up from the piano and ran around to get his guitar for the solo with Rusty and Brian, he fell down. He was sprawled out on his stomach for just a couple of seconds, got right back up, put on his guitar, and finished the song without missing a beat! Before saying goodnight, Paul cracked a smile as he told us "the fall was intentional". PAUL - thanks for coming back to St. Louis and for giving us an evening we'll never forget!
