    GOD DAMN WHAT A SHOW! Just absolutely incredible, one of the best shows I have ever been to for sure! So much fun and Sir Paul can do no wrong! Everyone going to the subsequent dates are in for a treat!

    Also: not a huge Billy Joel fan but it was pretty cool that he came out to duet on 'I Saw Her Standing There'!!

    Yep, he & Paul traded verses on I Saw Her Standing There. Got a massive reception, crowd loved it (me included!)

    I really would love to go back to last night right about now and relive that!!! :D

    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    I had a good time...the sound was kind of iffy at times, but for the most part I could hear OK. I was just glad they had screens up, otherwise he would have just been a tiny dot on the stage from where I was sitting.

    Last night Paul came on at around 8:30 and played until about 11:20.
    What a show, once in a lifetime experience!

    IMO, concerts in baseball stadiums are just a bad idea. unless you are paying 2K for front row seats you are going to be at least a couple hundred feet away at best and for alot of people closer to 400 feet. we had "decent" seats last night, but i was still closer at the philly 4 when i was in the 3rd from last row in the upper deck on the opposite end of the areana :lol:

    just seemed the sound was muddy and the gain was turned up too high causing some distorition.

    and then with all standing/sitting....i didn't know what was going on. :lol:

    gf was happy and enjoyed it, so that's what counts in my case...plus it beats watching the cubs at wrigley. :mrgreen:
