Karen: Thank you for stopping by! Your comment made my day. Really, after a bad day otherwise, reading this completely changed my mood! Are you going to see Paul this time around? I would love to actually see him in Liverpool; his home turf! And seeing The Beatles; well, what can I say? That’s amazing! At the show, Paul kept talking about not being able to hear anything at Shea except the girls screaming. One of my favorite moments was when he said it again toward the end of the show so all the women (yours truly included!) would scream, and then he said, “It’s getting shameless, really.” (Or something close to that. He definitely said it was shameless!) Anyway, now I’m rambling. Thanks again for commenting and making my day!

Hi Sara! What a great site you have here! Loved the videos you were able to lift from YOUTUBE; the two truly fabulous photos of Paul—and a great review of CITIFIELD! Have printed the whole thing to go into my 44 years of scrapbooks of Beatles/Paul–and wished so much I could have been there. Born in the Big Apple but have yet to see Paul there… Odd how that has been the case. Have seen him in Atlanta, Washington D.C. twice, Raleigh and Liverpool. Only had the joy of seeing the Beatles once at the Jacksonville Bowl, Sept. 11, 1964. What a show it was!

Thanks again for putting this all together and sharing!

Jive Turkey: Did you notice that I wrote two posts in one day in way less than a month after I came back from NYC? Just for you. And seriously: PAUL EFFING MCCARTNEY, folks. What the what?! I don’t know how you can just sit there when hearing that voice and that music.

I’m with Kristin: what’s the point of going to a concert and NOT getting into it? And how could they NOT get caught up in the excitement? It’s PAUL EFFING MCCARTNEY for shit’s sake. Good for you for fully enjoying yourself.

Sounds like it was an awesome time.

Kristin: Seriously.

Mama: Was there really any ever doubt that it would be great? Tulsa’s show sold out in a matter of minutes, of course. But I got my NYC tickets last minute; they always release more when the show gets closer. And there’s always other ways to get tickets. That’s not really the issue. And I highly doubt that Paul is reading my stupid little blog! (If only. *Sigh.*)

Fantasitc post!!!

Sara – I was hoping you would have a good time, I’m glad it turned out to be so great!! Wish I could find a ticket for you to Tulsa – but you said they were all sold out. You find one – I’ll get it for you.

Paul – are you listening? Sara needs a ticket!

PFFFFT to those party poopers in your section. Why go to a concert if you’re just going to sit there with your arms folded?
