Hmmm,this is getting interesting. Hamilton Ontario is 3 & a half hours away from me . I wonder if this will be the closest he gets to Michigan.

RE: Gold Package vs Silver Package vs $250 ticket?
At last show I went to in Detroit,I had sound check package.My husband found out he could go a few weeks before the show . I was surprised to pull up a silver package for him. It was the last seat in the second row. He had a good view of piano area... when the camera/ video boom wasn't in his way.

RE: Paul McCartney 2016 Rumors
I really dislike this way of announcing dates. I know we should be use to it by now. So with Minneapolis announced , is this the end of Midwest dates? Or the beginning? I don't know if I go for Minneapolis or wait for later dates for Ohio or Michigan. I can only go to 1 show ughhhh

I don't have a high income ,I just have a charge card that I make payments on ! At Detroit concert, I splurged on Soundcheck package & had 4th row in 3rd section. A couple weeks before the show , my husband got 2nd row .! No sound check but he had a better seat than me for a lot less
He made you seat in the crappier seat?
Lol ! We were going to switch seats.But when I saw both seats I decided to keep mine & see Paul at the piano in front of me for a change.Next time I will go back to Paul at the mic !

So Bob,Do you think the July/Aug. shows will be mostly outdoor arena concerts? I prefer air conditioning! & in the Midwest!

RE: Paul McCartney 2016 Rumors
So where does the Midwest fit in this Mr. Gannon? The early part - April/ May or the June/July part ? Or later? Midwest as in Ohio ,Michigan,Illinois....

RE: Detroit, MI - Joe Louis Arena - October 21, 2015 - ARCHIVE

Ok! I had a sh**ty seat. Joe Lewis arena is horrible to get into. Detroit has close to no public transportation as far as I am aware. Paul was in better voice than Sao Paulo last year, but still a little rough here and there. Macca performed 5 songs I had never seen him sing live before. I cried twice. It was my 18th McCartney concert. Audience was good considering it was the US. Had a great time and I hope to see Macca again in 2016.
Sorry you had a bad seat We were all hoping to meet up with you ,but didn't know where you were ! Did you go in the entrance with all the stairs ? That can be a workout ! Public trans is bad , We are the "motor city" so everything is about getting around with a car ! Hope we can meet up with you sometime !

Javi! Good to see you posting, I thought maybe you got abducted in Detroit. LOL.
Detroit is great,the concert in Detroit was great & Javi had a wonderful time here. Waiting to see your reviews Javi !
I never said Detroit was bad. I just meant he hasn't posted since then. Did you meet Javi?
I know ! According to all the pics he was posting on FB, he was very busy all over town.A few of us from here were hoping to meet up with him,but never saw him .That's why I'm hoping he starts posting about the Detroit show & his adventures ! C'mon Javi !

How has it been a week already since the concert? Still seems like yesterday.
I know ! Yesterday I put away my confetti from The Joe in a ziplock bag & added it to my confetti collection from Paul's shows I'm still looking at all the photos & videos from the show posted online too !

RE: Out There Tour Merch
I didn't see half the merchandise I thought I would see in Detroit. The small poster is nice.I got that. The shirts with the tour dates were updated with the last 5 shows. No specific city t shirts like they had for the summer shows. That was a disapointment. I guess I'll buy all the shirts I want on "Cyber Monday", like last year when they were on sale !

chuffed, I thought I had a great view too, between Paul & Brian,until that boom got in my way most of the night.Every time I thought I would get a good shot,the boom thought so too ! & got in my way I was in 3rd section, I didn't notice if the 1st section had the same problem.I'm usually in the middle,with no boom !

RE: Finally the end of the Out There tour?

The only thing more pathetic than fans who hang around message boards finding nothing to criticize about their favorite artists are "fans" who sit around message boards with nothing but complaints. It's time for a few people on here to move on with their lives. You are no longer fans of Paul. We get it. Move along and find something productive to with your time.
Thank You! We saw Paul in Detroit Wednesday & it was great. He was in great form, the audience was having a blast.What happens when I look on here later on? The reason he sounded good in Detroit was ,he must have been auto tuned ! Yeah right, you weren't there ! & I was going to post the the list of sound check songs & the concert, but I saw a post complaining once again, so why bother. & ,the macca board was talked about during our dinner, most fans said they don't bother posting on here anymore because of the handful who think their opinions are the only ones that matter,ours don't. Even long timers who would post their photos etc,can't be bothered with the negativity on here anymore. I get it, you have a right to complain if you want,we have that same right to love the concert we saw.....& love the songs we heard at that concert ! Peace !

I also thought, for one of the encores, Paul kept moving his mouth like he really needed a drink of water that time. I also liked how the guitar wrangler and him had that comic standoff about him going back on stage to finish the show. that was cute.
He drinks during the sound check. He drank 2 bottles....not water tho, it was yellow, Gatorade ?

RE: Detroit, MI - Joe Louis Arena - October 21, 2015 - ARCHIVE
WOW ! Of all the shows I've seen,this has to be my favorite one I thought his voice was fine,not too many problems. I noticed the Golden Slumbers slip up ! I was in section 3 & I had a problem with that video boom getting in my way a lot of the time, seemed everytime I was ready to take a pic - there was the boom ! He held up the Red Wing guitar for quite a bit, I was surprised he didn't say anything about it. !Sound check was great ! except, every VIP I have been at,we have always been able to buy our merchandise before the arena opens. First dibs so to speak. Not this time, They made us stay in the room we were in till the doors opened,then we had to fight with the crowds to even try & see the merchandise. & nothing special,unless another booth had more merchandise. I doubt it. First time I haven't seen a special shirt for the city. I didn't see a Detroit shirt at all. Just the ones listing all the cities. Everyone I've talked too & posts I've seen elsewhere, say that Paul seemed more interactive with the crowd this time. Yes he did the same old stories,but very friendly with the fans from all areas of the arena. And It was great to finally meet some members of the Macca board !!
