There are some “very strange” stories about how some people got the their place for the tickets queue. Times don’t match. For me it’s pretty obvious how it worked. And the main proof is nobody said a word, anywhere, before 9am.

Historic day anyway! And I'm  really happy for the ones that got their chance to be part of it in a fair way.

Looking forward to the December show

Hey   Not sure if that was directed towards my post or not, but just to say - it was a very long and surreal day and my times are estimates - but I know for sure that I was definitely at the Echo arena by about  9am because I remember we had to wait until 10 for the ticket and I distinctly remember thinking ''another hour''.  I wasn't first in the queue at the Echo - there were at least 30 people there already   Have a good time in December!

I posted on here a couple of days ago to ask about the secret gig seeing as I live in Liverpool and missed out on the Arena tickets and have never seen Paul play live.

I queued up outside the cavern from 5.30am and then at around 8.30am there were rumours that the tickets were being distrubuted at the Arena so myself and 5 others ran for a taxi and got over to the Arena and made it within the first 50 people.

We must have queued in total over the course of the day for at least 6 or 7 hours but it was completely worth it. Once we got our wrist bands and tickets we headed right back to the Cavern and queued at the front and made it to the front of the stage inside the gig.

I really enjoyed the new songs - "Who Cares" was probably my favourite out of them, it was really catchy and would be great as a single. His story about ''Confidante'' was interesting in terms of him alluding to the fact that he kind of fell out of love with playing his guitar for a while - and ''Fuh You'' was good cheeky fun.  I loved the fact that he included quite a few Wings numbers - ''Hi Hi Hi" was brilliant in such a small setting with everyone roaring along. It was totally mind-blowing to be that close to him and see him look in my eyes while I was grinning like mad - something I'll never forget. It's been a crazy few days and I've met some really cool people while I've been queuing at LIPA/The Cavern/The Echo.

I still can't beleive it...and that's my hand second from the left pointing up!!

I live in Liverpool and went to LIPA today but couldn't get in so I stood outside for 4 hours to see if I could see him afterwards but I just got sunburned lol (on the upside I'll have a nice tan next week). Missed out on Echo Arena tickets for December so I'm really hoping to see him tomorrow but I don't know what time the gig is. Does anyone have any clues?
