Paul sounded about as good as he ever has last night. We all know the 2-3 songs he struggles through or has changed slightly to be able to sing. Its amazing he even still try to preform them honestly. But in the last few years there were shows where he seemed to struggle throughout. And last night his voice was stronger than Ive seen it in years. I really didnt expect that. He even let out a long scream at one point that seemed like something he hadnt attempted before.. I was really impressed. Same setlist, which does get to be a little bit of a buzzkill when youve seen him recently. The show has started to follow a procedure now on multiple viewings and that makes it go by quickly.. so minor, but its a shame. The pyro, visuals, stage effects and lighting were top notch as per usual. I think we take for granted how good it really is. I was really surprised but the absolute biggest applause of the night? Something.. whenever George was on the screen people cheered and after he finished it was so significant Paul went to talk and had to stop because the crowd was still roaring. Nebraskans loved the quiet Beatle apparently. If you still get to see him on this tour, be happy. While the setlist is repetitive.. he still plays decades of hits and songs that illustrated our lives. And his voice is top notch and he looks like going another 10 years. There was a sense for me last night that it may be the last time I see him like this. I wanted to drink it in. But honestly.. he still has plenty in the tank.

I did a Limo watch in STL and honestly it was fun to do once but was a lot of waiting for little payoff. I wouldnt begrudge anyone trying though. I would say enjoy your night, make it memorable. There are some great restaurants downtown, I can give you some insight if you tell me a type of place youd like to go. All within walking distance but uber is an easy way to get back over to the front of the venue if walking a couple blocks isnt your idea of a good time. The old mattress factory is closer than most people park, up on capital is a few places too. But the Old Market district is very close as well. Ive seen Paul 5 times and this will be 6 and perhaps the most special. My son was born a month and 2 days ago and his middle name is James for obvious reasons. You see, he was born on Paul's birthday! Also, my wife and I were married on march 12th, Paul and Linda's wedding day. Seeing Paul in my hometown again will be such a thrill. I do wish the setlist would change a bit but I am just so excited to see him again. Cant wait for sunday
