Hi everyone! Got my delux vinyl pre-order on yesterday! I just thought the 2 singles were alright, liked Come On To Me best but even that, maybe it'll grow on me. The album will be sweet though, no doubt.

I think Paul's the only artist out today who I would anticpate and pre-order a new album from 3 months early

I actually totally get what Kanye is saying, and who cares if he is comparing his effect with Paul to the one he observed with Lennon. He's not saying he's better, only that he could envision the same effect, of angst + Paul. Makes sense and worked on FourFiveSeconds, I love that tune.

SusyLuvsPaul:

"New" is one of my favorite songs from "New" and Bjorn's take on this jewel is superlative

As the credits clearly state, audi sang lead on New. But Bjorn clearly rocked the mix.

Nice write up in the Tribune this morning. Alot of interesting details http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/music/chi-paul-mccartney-concert-review-20140709,0,7206684.column FWIW, I think fans are worrying about the illness way to much. He had a virus, anyone can get one. if it had been truly serious you likely would have seen a scaling back of either the show or the dates. Instead the shows are still 2'45 and the dates are being expanded. I think it is being treated as a one time thing that had nothing to do with touring. RamblinRed

" Given the numerous worthy albums and songs he released over that 30-year stretch, it?s a shame he doesn?t make the case for any of this material in concert the way that, say, former collaborator Elvis Costello revisits different phases of his career when playing live. This gets to the crux of a central tension with McCartney: the desire to please vs. the desire to get creative. "His albums are almost always weirder than advertised; ?New? is all over the map stylistically and mostly successful, and his 2008 The Fireman collaboration with producer Youth (?Electric Arguments?) is truly out there. Yet you get the feeling he?s thinking that the people paying hundreds of dollars to see him aren?t expecting a deep catalog exploration, and that's too bad, because McCartney?s catalog is as deep as anyone's, so there are even a lot of hits he never plays." Wow, I feel this part of the article validates what people like Audi and myself and a few others have been saying for years !!

I knew that it was only a matter of time before major media outlets would start voicing this issue.

Good. I'm glad this is finally getting out....

Paul needs to become familiar with the notion that he may one day end up more popular than the Beatles themselves. Dead serious. And perhaps more popular that Jesus.

As Erik stated in the Albany thread...we didn't know which people were boardies at the soundcheck reception. We should have worn our screen names so that we could find eachother.

I saw one guy wearing the black PMC shirt ,but never got around to asking who he was...didn't you have a oobu sign? Yea we should have put our names on those stickers...Hi My name is..... lol

Yep, I had an oobu sign. You saw me? WQhy didn't you say hi? lol. I saw a couple people with a pmc logo...in fact I think I may have talked to a couple but I did not ask where they came from or who they were. Ah...come on back Paul,...we did this all wrong. Kapoo...you were there too? Where were you seated?

Section 302, first row of balcony! so I had unobstructed view which was great, and I in turn could obstruct the view of others by my annoying 'standing'. Crowd was really reserved up where I was.
