Thread: McCartney at Dodger Stadium

    McCartney at Dodger Stadium

    Saw this incredible show last night with my son! Paul was in very good voice and seemed in great shape after his earlier health issues.
    He played around 40 songs, Beatles, Wings, solo in a three hour show.
    Has anyone else seen any shows on this tour, and if so, what did you think?

    One of the very few performers that I'd pay huge bucks to see live. His voice is amazing at 72!

    40 songs and the guy's 2 years older than me!!!

    Pretty humbling for this old rocker.

    Glad it was a great night, Lady Sears!

    I caught Paul's show last summer. It was freakin' brilliant. I saw it with my two boys.

    Wifey and me got to see Sir Paul a couple of years ago, incredible, would gladly pay the big $ to see him again if given the chance.

    If I'm not mistaking the current band Paul has is probably the longest standing group of guys he's played with, those guys are killer.

    This was the second time I got to see a Beatle, the first being Pete Best (I know, not nearly as sensational but still fun). Going to see Ringo in a couple of months, can't wait.

    All I have heard about this tour is that after Paul plays Candlestick Park in San Francisco, they are going to tear that stadium down.

    I like the symmetry of the whole thing...The Beatles played their last official concert at Candlestick and now Candlestick's last official event will be a Beatle
