Caught one of his Citi Field opening shows in '09, and was at night 1 at Yankee Stadium 2 weeks ago. My girlfriend and I took our parents to the show (was a miracle I was able to get 6 tickets all together thanks to the presale!), and when he played "I Will" I proposed to her and she's now my fiance. She was the only one who had no clue out of the 6 of us that I planned on doing this, and it was a really great moment to share with our parents in the midst of an amazing show by a living legend, so needless to say a night we'll never forget. Was about to do it during "Maybe I'm Amazed," but I took a chance because I wanted to hold out for a Beatles song and not a Wings one, so glad I waited!!

Paul puts on a better show at 69 than most acts do in their prime, we'll continue to see him in concert as long as he keeps playing

Love your review. Congrats to you and your fiance.

Just one little mistake in your review. "Maybe I'm Amazed" is a Paul solo song, not a Wings song. It's on his first solo album, McCartney.

That's awesome...so glad you got to propose during the song you wanted...congrates to you and your fiancé.

Have to agree Paul putting on a better show...we saw U2 at the start of the 360 tour and my wife and I both agreed that at Comerica that night Paul was way better than any of the 2 times she saw U2 and the 4 times I saw U2...from the stage setup, the sound, the song selection, the littles stories that took the crowd back in time and extremely impressed with the length at 69...I said to my wife after 2 hours if the concert was over now i'd be happy, he played for another 50 minutes. I'll be back to see him...likely next year. Something tells me he'll still be packing them in at 80.
