AFJF Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Funny that I used to make fun of the Beatles when I was a kid because they weren't "hard core" like GNR, Metallica, Pantera, etc.. but over the years I've grown up and have much respect for the man. He was on my short list of artists to see before I (or he) die(s). Can't wait. Anybody here seen him live lately? I hear he was doing 2 1/2-3 hour shows.

The Crusher Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Lifetime Beatles fan. Lucky to see him a few times once recently. Guy is still very entertaining. Gotta be kinda cool seeing him in London. Enjoy the show man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 It's going to be a pretty crazy couple of days because I'll have my 4 flight, 30 hour trip from Korea to London, rest up that day and to the concert the next night. Like I said though, he's on my short list. I would have loved to go see him a couple of nights later in his home town of Liverpool but that'll be mid-week and too long of a drive back home to be at work the next morning. Once I'm recovered I'll post what I can recall of the set list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergen Jet Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Haven't seen him in 20 years. He was fricken incredible back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFJF Posted December 19, 2010 Author Share Posted December 19, 2010 The show was last night and it was incredible. Paul took a moment at one point as he put it "We (The Beatles) played here many years ago so I have a lot of fond memories. I hope you don't mind if I just sit for a second and take this all in." and the crowd went nuts while he sat at the piano and just stared out at us. The venue was tiny, I think capacity was about 5,000 and I had standing floor tickets. Early on was a bit slow for me because he was playing some obscure stuff and some "Wings" songs that I didn't really know. Once he got in to the big Beatles hits catalog it was like nothing I've ever experienced. I would have paid what I did just to hear Elanor Rigby, Yesterday, Live and Let Die and what I thought was the best part of the show...Hey Jude. A night my fiancee and I will never forget.
