Thanks for the well wishes. My gf saw her first Macca show last year, and she's become a die-hard pretty quickly. Super excited for her 2nd show in Albany, and the proposal won't be a bad "bonus." Can't wait to see the show!

Down to one day to go! Making the drive up to Albany Saturday morning. Proposing earlier that day, too. Going to be a big night.

RE: What Keeps You Coming Back?
It's all about the tunes. The band is good, Paul has thrown some gems in just often enough to keep me coming back for more. Love that he plays so damn long after all these years.

Albany residents, what do you recommend for a good place to eat in the downtown area before the show? Not necessarily looking for anything fancy, just a couple of good options before heading to see Sir Paul.

Going to be interesting to see what the rumored "surprises" will be (if any) for the US dates. We'll find out first.

RE: US OUT THERE TOUR JUNE DATES RESCHEDULED: OCTOBER
Sorry he's had to postpone the dates. Thankful that he's planning on being back for the Albany show. May try to hit an October show now...something we couldn't squeeze in date-wise in June.

Good to hear. Last time I had side stage tux they were great, but between the seat map, and unfamiliar arena, I was crossing my fingers. Just glad to ser him I'm an arena again instead of the stadiums. I paid more than double last year to sit further away in a ballpark.

RE: Predict Next Setlist
WixRocks!:
I really will be floored if we get one song change from Japan 2013.
I think we may see 2-3 songs change, but not too many off of that. Looking forward to getting a few songs from NEW, and wouldn't mind seeing one or two others pop up. The gf is hoping for just about anything to replace "My Valentine."

Wow - didn't realize so many people had so much trouble getting tickets for the show. I inadvertently ended up with Albany tickets when I was redirected from Pittsburgh during the presale, and didn't discover that until after I'd already made the purchase. Albany is a couple of hours further drive for us, but that show works better for my gf's schedule since it is on a Saturday, and Pittsburgh is on a Monday. Should we change our mind for any reason, I'll happily offer them to somebody here. It will be great to see Paul in an arena again after the last couple of times I've seen him in Stadiums. Just hoping my view near the side of the stage isn't too impaired.

RE: New Orleans/Louisville/Albany/Pittsburgh - Pre-sale Thread
I was rerouted from Pittsburgh to Albany for my tickets. Albany was still doable for us (just a longer drive), so we were prepared to just suck it up and go there. Got the email from CrowdSurge about correcting the mistake if we got the tickets in error (which we did), but ultimately decided to just stick with Albany. Going on Saturday works out better for my gf's schedule than the Monday Pittsburgh date. Lucked out, but at least they were working to fix the problems. Now, just hoping for another date in the vicinity...perhaps Philly?

Congrats! Will you still try for Pittsburgh tix and try to sell your Albany tix?
At the moment, we may stay with Albany. After a discussion, my gf thinks the Saturday show may be better for her schedule. If we change our mind, we'll

RE: Crowdsurge BITES!
Ended up with tickets in the wrong city. Luckily, I can still make it to the show, but pretty creepy when the links are taking you to the wrong show.

Meant to get Pittsburgh tix, but the link took me to Albany. Ended up buying Albany tickets without even noticing until tonight. Longer drive, but doable, and Saturday may be better. Glad I didn't end up in New Orleans.

I ended up with Albany tix, when I was trying to get Pittsburgh. Clicked the Pittsburgh link, but it took me to Albany. Didn't even notice until tonight. It's a couple hours further away, but Saturday makes it doable. Weird.

Ah, ok. Thanks! Guess I'd forgotten that, though I'm remembering doing it before now. Happens when you get older.

On ticketmaster, I'm only seeing a mention of VIP package presale. Are they not doing a presale for the regular seats today?I have too many other events going on this summer to throw VIP money at Macca this time. Hope I don't have to wait until Monday.

Happy to have a chance to see Paul at an arena show this time around. Not a huge fan of the stadium shows. Wish I could fork over for great seats, but I already have too many shows lined up, trips to Disney, engagement, etc. GF is pretty darn excited to see her second show after I converted her last year.
