Tried to purchase 2 tickets but alas only VIP tickets are available, a bit pricey for me. I hope to get some decent seats on 4/25. Will there be any pre-concert get-togethers? It will be my first time in Nashville, I'm very excited and hope to see many of you enjoying yet another eventful evening with Sir Paul!

My "Shea Stadium" stories: 1. Stood outside Shea Stadium to hear "The Beatles" becuase I could not afford a ticket. 2. Left the last concert at Shea Stadium before Sir Paul took the stage. 3. Tonight I will finally see Sir Paul McCartney play Shea........now known as Citifield. Thank you Sir Paul. You have changed my life for the better since I first saw you on the Ed Sullivan show forty five years ago. Will write a review of tonight's show when I get back. I did get to see Paul when he played at the Ed Sullivan theatre when "The Beatles" exited the show. He's left-handed. Also saw them leaving the Warwick Hotel. Walked past Sir Paul Mc Cartney on a path in Ocean Bay Park in the early 80's. Said Hello! And he smiled and said "Ello!" back to me. He is the greatest entertainer on the planet, he has been since the first time I saw him on the "Ed Sullivan" show. Simply the best.... Cheers!

RE: Sir Paul McCartney and Friends April 4th, 2009
It was a very inspiring and lofty night in New York City. The Daid Lynch Foundation raised enough money to reach one million at-risk children. These children will be taught meditation as a coping skill. The foundation has proven that meditation helps quiet the mind and that children who have learned to mediatate do much better in school and in life. Many images of Paul, George , John and Ringo were on display. Images from the time "The Beatles" spent pursuing transcendental mediatation. The music was lively, the performers were entertaining. Major kudos to Ben Harper, the Relentless 7, Donovan, the inimitable Eddie Vedder, the incredible Ringo Starr and of course the one and only Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney sang my favorite Beatle song "Got To Get You Into My Life" as well as "Jet," "Band on the Run," "Can't Buy Me Love,""Lady Madonna" "Baby You Can Drive My Car' and "I Saw Her Standing There" were highlights of the show. One of the most strirring moments came when Paul sang "Here Today" to John, it was full of love and tenderness. The rousing finale was "Cosmically Conscious." It was a stellar night with exciting engaging performances for a very good cause. A night to celebrate the resorative powers of transcendental meditation. And a night to celebrate Paul and Ringo. You could feel the spirit of Gerorge and John palpable in the air last night. It was pure bliss. Peace.

Sir Paul McCartney and Friends April 4th, 2009
Will finally get to see Sir Paul McCartney perform on stage for my very first time. And for a very good cause, indeed. The David Lynch Foundation. I am beside myself. Thank you Sir Paul McCartney. You touch my heart, lift my soul and quiet my mind. Is anybody going to RCMH tomorrow night? Want to meet for a drink?

RE: ~For Sir Paul Maccartney~ Fans write your messages here
In case you missed it, the USA has a new "Commander-in-Chief." After eight years, George W. Bush went back home. When asked what he plans to do, GWB tapped his head, laughed and told the truth. "I always wanted to be in a rock and roll band, I heard that a 60's "jam" band is planning a "reunion." All the best to #43. President Barack H. Obama #44 signed an executive order to stop the torture of detainees at Guantanamo Bay and to shut it down post haste. What to do with them, has yet to be resolved. Australia has offered to take the detainees. Several other countries plan to follow suit. Our new President wants to move forward and let it be. Will keep you updated on this new beginning for the USA. Chin up and be of good cheer.

RE: The ..2012.... Political thread

GYPSYGIRL:
Since Hillary dropped out, I may go Republican & vote for McCain.
I fail to understand this position. Clinton and McCain are on completely different sides on so many major issues, it doesn't make any sense IMO. I can understand liking Clinton and not Obama (or vice versa) but I don't see how one can go from either Clinton or Obama to McCain. Similarly, Romney or Huckabee supporters aren't lining up behind Obama because they aren't happy with McCain, I don't see how one can support two people who have such different political and philosophical beliefs. Don't the issues matter at all?
I can't speak for anyone other than myself and I know this post was not directed at me but I feel compelled to respond. I prefer dialog to monologue. A few months back I became rather emotional about the Clinton/Obama debacle. Clearly they share a similar vision, they embrace similar positions on most of the major issues, they are both qualified and competent. Hillary is not a "saint" but Obama is not a "rock star." I don't trust either one of them. However when Hillary suspended her campaign, I was crestfallen. As I woman, it pained me to see her "give up." I imagine it is because I am a 59 year old white woman and I thought she would best serve my personal interests. I was so angry I posted on another website that I would not vote for Obama if he did not pick Hillary as his running mate. I wanted some validation not for Hillary Clinton but for the millions of people who voted for her in the primaries. I also started to look at McCain more closely in the event that Obama did not pick Hillary. I have always had the highest respect for John McCain. He's not perfect but he is a decorated war hero and we are at war. I agree with him on certain issues, particularly less interference by our federal government and more privatization. He is not a carbon copy of GWB. He is his own man. I like that he is older, that can equate to more wisdom and also problematically more rigidity. Then I realized I can not vote based on my emotions about political parties or my fears about more government interference in my life. In the final analysis, I will vote for neither candidate from the Democratic Party or Republican Party. I do not trust any of them to clean my house let alone run my country. The two party system is systemic of the biggest problem our country faces, the absence of a viable third party. So I will vote for the candidate of the Libertarian Party. As far as the issues, I agree many of the positions that the Libertarian Party platform stands for, so why not vote accordingly. Just my thoughts.

RE: The ..2012.... Political thread
For the past forty years I have voted for either a Democrat or a Republican based on which candidate I thought would make the best President. Voting along party lines has never been for me. From this 2008 election on I plan to vote Libertarian. It is the only way I can effectively let the Democrats and Republicans know that this educated and concerned citizen of the United States has had it with the two party system. Until we have a viable third party in this country I refuse to vote for either a Democrat or a Republican candidate.
