Glenn Frey 1948-2016 RIP
Wow, FP, thanks for posting this. How fantastic it must have been to see Paul from that close to the stage. And it's great that you got to see Linda too. I felt very sad when she passed away.
I must admit, I don't have anywhere near to all of Paul's solo albums. I have the compilation "All The Best", "Flowers In The Dirt" (most of which I'm not crazy about, but I love "My Brave Face", "This One" and "Put It There"), "Off The Ground" (I'm nuts about the title track and "Hope Of Deliverance", the latter which became the Song of the Year on one of our local radio stations at the end of 1992), "Unplugged", "Flaming Pie" (which I proceeded to play endlessly - "Young Boy" was the only song from the album played on any of our local radio stations, but the whole album is brilliant, in my opinion) and "Run Devil Run" (where Paul covers several rock 'n roll classics). I've never seen Paul's entire solo collection in any of our record stores - I'd have to import them if I want them (as I had to do with Glenn Frey's solo material).
Strangely enough, I'd often wanted to purchase the "Russian album", and even saw it available on a few occasions, but never got around to buying it. I heard two of the recordings from the album played on radio as far back as 1991 (which I proceeded to tape ), but one of them was not "That's All Right", unfortunately. I'd love to hear it. It just so happens that I have heard Paul sing this song, though: he performs it (and I know you know this, FP ) with The Beatles on the "Live At The BBC" collection, which I absolutely love. It's one of my favourite Elvis songs too - I even selected the song to record myself 10 years ago when I made my demo CD.
I've got a peaceful, easy feeling
And I know Glenn won't let me down
Thanks for posting this, Eaglesvet. I read an article in our local newspaper regarding this concert, and have since proceeded to forget about it. I suppose I tend to put things out of my mind that hurt... i.e. that I won't be able to see him!
I take it the whole idea for Paul to open the replacement stadium for Shea is because The Beatles held the first ever rock concert there in 1965, to the largest concert audience ever played to (around 55,000 people attended, I believe, although one couldn't hear much amidst the screaming). What I didn't like about the Shea stadium concert is that the boys were so far away from their audience. These four little guys in the middle of the field of this gigantic stadium performing to their fans out at the sides. It could not have been (and was not) a particularly enjoyable concert for them.
What a fantastic third date you had with your hubby! It's like a fairytale.

Everyone check this out. If you are like me you will be moved to tears.

WOW, what a treat for the Neil Young fans!
That is the first time I've seen Paul performing on stage without an instrument. And my goodness, what good shape he is in!
That's a great on-stage rendition of "A Day In The Life". Not even The Beatles got a chance to perform it live.
How I wish John Lennon was still around...
It's funny - when I went to London in March last year to see the Eagles, I had this fantasy about seeing Paul in the audience...

FP, thanks so much for posting that link. It was very fun to watch and I agree with Mrs F - Paul looks very good there! Loved it! Neil didn't have very much guitar left by the end! Amazing!

It was announced 2 days ago that Paul McCartney is going to be playing the one year anniversary show at the BOK Center in Tulsa, OK on Aug. 17th. My friend Christie has got the hook up and is going to get us the tickets. She even said a friend of hers may rent out a limo. Pretty cool!!!! At all of the Eagles concerts that I've been too, i've seen lines of limos outside the venues and always wanted to be in one of those and now I may finally get that chance. I'll keep you all updated and let you know how it goes.
Somebody put the press conference on youtube. There's even a few mentions of the Eagles.

Paul is performing tonight in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I saw a news report about the preparations and anticipation for the concert. The reporter said that he sounded fantastic during the soundcheck. It is an outdoor venue & they are expecting 60,000 people. I wonder if GlennHoney was going, as she lives in Nova Scotia?
Saw an ad last night - Paul will be on Letterman on Wednesday night for the first time ever!
