That is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.:bow::fainted:

He has a new album coming out in September called Egypt Station. I hope he had a happy 76th birthday on the 18th (see...

Thanks. I thought later that I should have said something about the bass playing but I'm not a musician & tend to take it for granted. He can also play decent lead guitar & keyboards, of course.

I decided I should post something about the two astonishing shows I saw on December 11 & 12. I had held off because I honestly was not sure what to say. They were, in short, the two greatest concerts...

As I said elsewhere two nights in Sydney in December, second row the second night. :cheers:

How I wish he'd come back here. I've seen him once, in 1991.

Happy birthday Sir Paul!

I had the experience of seeing him back in 1992, so I relate to NYCFan's review. The man is a genius & is totally awesome.

Here's Neil Young inducting Sir Paul into the Walk Of Fame:

Mrs Vandebilt and Nineteen Eighty-Five come from Macca's greatest solo album (although technically it's Wings) Band On The Run.

Man. What a great show. Sir Paul, it's time you came back here! I notice he did Something!!! And Mrs Vandebilt..... sigh. And Nineteen Eighty-Five. And I'VE GOT A FEELING...... :jealous::grooving:...

MF, to answer your question (I didn't quote your post because the board is very slow today):

I saw the Off The Ground/New World tour in 1992 (not 1982 as I said in my post). It was the only solo...
