That's a heckuva zoom lens. The VIP section is elevated, but it's not so close, people. Rod and I stood by the fence that separates the VIPs from the commoners earlier that day.
So the VIP section is actually farther away than the 'commoners?' I'm confused.

Yep! Farther. And to the side.

Well that sucks balls! Plus, you can't buy a single ticket!

But you get AC, showers, food, All good.

This is my view from the VIP mound for Tom Petty. It is higher than the GA field and you can actually get pretty close, but I was up too at the back near the drinks tent. And it looks much different in person.

Didn't checked the board for quite some time, but seriously, listen to this piano-riff during the Bonnaroo soundcheck:
If that isn't some hidden McCartney gem I don't know what is. -

It must be, the whole band is singing along in the harmony vocals! Catchy as hell, no? Sounding like a lost 1968-era McCartney jewel.

Going to bonnaroo for the 10th time was worth it just to hear Paul McCartney cover Midnight Special! I waited in the pit line on the stage right/crowd left side before Wilco got on stage and just made it into the pit. The fans in there were fantastic during McCartney's set! It was the closest I have ever been to see McCartney in the 13 times I have seen him live thus far. And the next day I started bonnaroo with Paul's son James McCartney which was a lot of fun to see the son the day after his father. James covered Neil Young's Old Man in his set.

Hi, All: Sorry for the delay, but here are a bunch of snippet clips from Macca's Soundcheck at Bonnaroo. Not the greatest quality, but you get the idea (sorry for my vocal on Midnight Special
(really long 'director's' cut of our Bonnarroo trip....McCartney Soundcheck content starts at 9:18, and McCartney 'actual' concert content starts at 19:02). Enjoy! Steve. What an absolute EXPERIENCE!!! Love it!

maccaduluth74 (Steve) Great video. Would love to see a soundcheck at some point. Your trip video is something I will revisit. People from my province went and they loved Paul. These are kids in their 20's who said they cried..it had to be a great show. Cheers

Thanks, macaximx! Yes, I am 38 yrs old, and both my wife and I felt a little 'old' at Bonnaroo
..however, it was so wonderful to hear comments all weekend from the younger folks...and those who had never seen Paul live before...expressing their pure delight, admiration and true awe of experiencing a Macca show. It truly demonstrates the timelessness and generational link that Paul's music and person provides. In fact, we are bringing my daughters (ages 8 & 10) to Winnipeg in August, so they can see Paul for the first time...creating memories they can cherish and pass down. Thanks again for checking out my videos...the Soundcheck at Bonnaroo was an absolute bonus...without having to pay extra for a VIP/Hot Sound package
Have a good one! Steve

Another angle of Paul arriving at the Tennessee music festival last month. I love it when people post these on YouTube.
