1 WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!
Iv'e seen on posts for other cities,they are making big plans with signs that everyone will have. Are there any plans like that for Indy? I haven't seen anything. That would be so cool if we did that. I could help make copies,if we knew what to say on the signs. We only have a week !!!!!!
I guess no one has any ideas I would do it,but I'm not very original ! LOL ! I would need some help !

What an amazing night! My first ever Paul concert and it was unbelievable. Just like luckiest1paul stated in her post, I was blown away by how great his voice sounded, steady & strong throughout the show, and his energy!! He was all over the place, having fun with the crowd...I can't believe this guy is 71!! I have always loved Paul & admired him since I was 13 years old, but watching him perform has brought a whole new level of respect and admiration...he genuinely loves what he does and seems grateful to be able to share it with us. I love how he took the time to acknowledge the fans, several times, especially the ones in the 'nosebleed' section, waving or giving them a thumbs-up. Aside from his typical "give me a minute to drink it all in" moment, there were a few times he just stopped after a song and stood there smiling, adsorbing the cheering and applause...it was nice to see. I have seen many Paul concert DVD/You Tube clips, I kinda knew the typical songs/stories he tells, but honestly nothing prepares you in how you feel when you are standing in the same room with him and are hearing those songs/stories, by the man himself. I just remember thinking, this is not a tribute band, this the an actual Beatle singing these legendary Beatle/Wings songs that HE actually wrote...it's over whelming if you stop and think about it. Not to put anyone down (and this is just my opinion), but I have never understood when people on this board complain about the set-list or the same stories, now that I have seen Paul live I REALLY don't understand it, I mean do you know how lucky we are that he's still performing and putting on a kick-ass 3 hr show, with no break, at the age of 71?? And people have the nerve to complain... I just think we should appreciate and recognize how lucky we are as Paul fans to have Paul with us, making us happy with his shows/music, because one day we won?t be so lucky and we will miss him. For me, Paul gave me a happy night to remember, and I know he did for others as well, and for that I will forever be thankful.
I am so glad you finally got to see Paul's show ! I agree with everything you say too....
WooHoo Indy's getting closer !! Can You all help me out with something? I made my sign yesterday, it said, MY 87 YEAR OLD MOM WANTS ME TO GIVE YOU A HUG FOR HER.... I ALWAYS OBEY MY MOM... (she loves Paul too and they have the same birthday ) Now at last nights concert, someone had a sign about their 81 year old Mom, she was there and he brought her up stage for her hug !!!! Do you think I need to make a different sign? Will they think I'm just copying last night's sign? Mom can't go the concert,she had a stroke a few years ago,it would be too much for her. I originally was going to make a sign about my 4 Yorkies named him,then someone did a sign about their bulldog !LOL Any ideas? Anyone?

Don't know if this will help at all ,The email & password I have saved for the store didn't work for the new store. I looked up old passwords for this site & for some reason an old password I had crossed out worked ! Also username was not my email - like the regular store,an old username name worked. I don't know why,but they worked & I got thru I got my shirt yesterday from the new site & the gold Wings shirt from the regular. They are from different companies.
Hi, thanks so much for the suggestions, very thoughtful of you! I decided to create a new account which resolved the issue for me! So happy to learn that you have received your Wings shirts from both sources, I hope you enjoy wearing them! I bought the gold Wings shirt for my triplets at Paul's Brooklyn concert - they LOVE it!!! The first time they wore their shirts they were literally out of the car less than a minute when the teacher standing watch at the front door of their school approached them inquiring as to where they obtained their shirts. He and three other teachers have since given the triplets $40. to purchase one for them whilst attending Paul's D.C. concert. Be prepared for many compliments and questions - they are very, very cool t-shirts! Enjoy!!!

He should swap his soundcheck wardrobe with his full-concert attire, in my opinion.
I agree audi
pood for paul:
I got mine too bentleymama-but first heading off to Boston on Monday, then driving to Indy on the following Sunday! After Indy-I go back to being a responsible adult again...sigh
Hopefully he'll go "out there" again & come back to Detroit!!
Just checked my emails. I got the soundcheck info ! Did anyone else get their's yet? 10 days to go !

So, if this guy didn't know what was going on, how on earth did he get picked?!?! Did he have a sign?
Yeah, that was my question!! And I'm sure there were others who would have given (almost) anything to be picked (like me in Memphis!)
In 2011 in Detroit,They picked some very deserving fans.But also at the soundcheck was a well known Detroit attorney with his kid. He spent alot of time talking to Paul's security & Zach Niles. As the chosen ones were heading toward the stage, Zach let the kid go up too. He didn't have a clue who Paul was,I thought a real fan should have gone up. ( like me !!! ) Harley, was the Russian guy with Olga? She was up there with you, she has been up on stage with Paul 3 times in the last couple years !! She's so lucky ! LOVE your story Harley !!!!
Yeah, that bothered me too about Fieger's kid....kid just stood there like a bump on a log....Waste of stage space!! LOL There really is no rhyme or reason on how people get picked to go onstage. Detroit is where I met Olga, she's a really nice person-we hung out together all day. I've been all over the US to see Paul and to get picked to meet him in my hometown was AWESOME!!!!
You guys are part of something,that most us can only dream about ! So we will live our dream thru your stories! I agree Olga is very sweet & nice,I love every time she sees Paul. I hope my comment wasn't taken wrong.......
patrice:
Harley, I just LUV that you were up on stage with Paul! You really HIT one for the home team of Paul fans! I'm so enjoying reading the absolute joy in your posts because we're all there with you all the way. If it were me it would truly be like coming home and reading your experiences just shares that warmth.

My 15% discount only applied to the new store.I ordered one shirt from there & the yellow Wings from the regular store. (Bravado) No discount for the Wings shirt. Got them both today ! Nice !

In the real world though i think pm.com could stretch to a bi-monthly competition where you win a genuine hand signed Paul item. We'd all love to win something like that, and they could get the persons name and dedicate it so it's much less likely to end up on ebay I mean even the people who get picked for the daft "you gave me the answer" section don't actually get sent anything, do they?
I like this idea !
Awesome ! Can't wait for more info May I ask your facebook page name? If you don't want to post it can you pm me ?? Does anyone else have pics ?
CONGRATS !!! Now give us the details ! Please !
