Paul McCartney Concert

Jordan2 — Thu, 06 Sep 2018 22:23:15 GMT

I heard that Paul is having a private concert tomorrow night at 8:00 at a secret location in NYC. Some tickets (free) were given out through a lottery through Soptify accounts. You can watch the concert on Paul's YOUTUBE channel.

@Jordan2 I kinda wish you hadn't posted this. Now I'm insanely jealous of anyone who got a free ticket to that. Ignorance would have been bliss in this case!

I absolutely Sir Paul! Waaaaahhhh I wanna go!

@Jordan2 LOL! Jordan2, this is not much consolation. The "next best thing" is a pretty far cry from the "best thing!"

Fortunately, I've seen MACCA three times live in concert, two fairly recently, but this sounds great being so much smaller.

On Jimmy Fallon's website it says he will be a guest tonight but I haven't seen anything else. Those lucky people who get to see Paul. I've seen him in concert.

I saw the video he made announcing it. He says on the video he is in NY and he will be performing Friday, and his album comes out Friday and its called Egypt Station and the hint where he is perfroming is in the word station. My guess and everyone else on facebook guess is he will be at grand central station. Well too bad I'm in PA. Had I known sooner Id maybe have taken a bus from the town near me and been there!

Oh well. I am getting the album Friday which our record store says contains a lithograph he painted. Cant wait to go get the album! I don't know if that lithograph is just if you buy it from the record store or included everywhere you buy it but I'm going to the record store.

There are many 'stations' in NYC, I can't imagine them having a surprise concert at Grand Central during the chaos of Friday night rush hour !!

From today's NY Post:

"Paul McCartney is set to perform an invite-only show at Grand Central Terminal on Friday night to promote his new album “Egypt Station,” sources told The Post.

...On Friday morning, construction crews in hardhats were putting the finishing touches on a stage that was erected in the massive transit hub’s Vanderbilt Hall."

Definitely at Grand Central, just saw it on the local news.

Check out if you can Paul McCartney with Jimmy Fallon from last night's Tonight Show. It was funny Jimmy and Paul were on a floor, the elevator doors would open and the people inside would get a brief glimpse of them, One woman tried to get off the elevator but was held back! I can't imagine getting that surprise of a lifetime.

@Jordan2 I remembered in time to watch about 30 minutes of the live stream. Lucky fans!

I am listening to the new album for the 2nd time. Amazon had it to me yesterday so I listened once last night. Pretty good. Not really what you would expect from a 76 year old!

I bought tix to a show in May this week too. I think about 5 shows were announced last week for May/June. I would think they will announce some more. I am driving a few hours to see him but didn't want to take the chance that he would come closer to me. I wish they would release the whole tour schedule at one time like they used to do.

Paul is amazing to see in concert! I missed the Fallon show - need to look for it online.

We were able to see it on our MacBooks but it seemed to be the only thing that YouTube would not stream to our tv

It is still on You Tube for those that missed it

I spent my teenage years with the Beatles. I haven’t cared for any of them solo since they broke up in the 60’s.

@Roni18, I didn’t watch the whole concert. I don’t know if you were aware, but it was scheduled to start at 8:00, it started closer to 8:30.

It was a bit painful to listen to him. He is losing his voice but I still adore him!

@proudlyfromNJ

According to what I read the set was constructed In Vanderbilt hall, which is on the 42nd street side of the station. It it is the same location as the holiday boutique and train show

@Pearlee I know, I read the reports soon after I posted !! Only Paul could pull that off !! I'll have to catch the concert on line.
