I was supposed to go to that concert!!! My grandfather (my Nonno) lived 4 miles away from Candlestick Park. I BEGGED and pleaded with my parents to let me go visit my Nonno and he could have taken me to the concert....they said NO NO NO...absolutely NOT. I was almost 15 at the time. I barely spoke to them for a long time after that.
AND they forbade me from going to the Monterey Pop festival a year later in spite of our living just a few miles away. Arrrrggghhh.
We are going to see Ringo & ASB in San Jose on Friday Oct. 14th...fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!
Last time I checked, it was still a GO.
Happy belated wedding anniversary to Paul & Nancy. Best wishes!
We all LOVE you, and best wishes as you have been on this earth for 8 decades!!
Much happiness to you!! 
If anyone would like a set of the VIP swag from the Oakland concert for FREE, please let me know. I would be willing to give it away, all I ask would be to be paid for the shipping costs.

Said it for both Oakland shows.
Actually last night in Oakland, he hastily said "See you on the next tour
WOW!!! What a show! It was wonderful and Paul was in great form and his voice was good. It is truly amazing at his engergy and spryness at his age. He seemed very relaxed.
The soundcheck was awesome! We liked it just as much as the concert. He sang a great variety of songs. It was a lot of fun. And the hospitality reception was nice...got to chat with a few boardies. Food was good - salad, cooked veggies, pasta dishes and scrumptious desserts.
Concert was a blast. Very high energy. Audience was singing along most of the time, which seemed to help Paul out with the vocals. Told the same old tired stories. Only read a couple of signs and did the shtick about a fictional sign "sign my butt". He & his band members seemed genuinely surprised at the response when Paul asked the females to scream like back in Beatlemania days. It was a VERY loud response. Loved the virtual duet on I've Got A Feeling. His parting words were "See you on the next tour".

They weren't letting folks do Limowatch where he was coming in today. So weird. They made us stand way far down and brought Paul in a different way.
They must have been nervous about something.
Maybe with the recent Dave Chappelle incident celebs are being more cautious? Just guessing.
Getting VERY excited for tomorrow!!!! Paul & Mother's Day...what a treat!!
Any report on the VIP/soundcheck hospitality reception?
