Paul does a great concert.

I was watching Willie Nelson earlier.

Before that James Taylor.

It has been a good night, feeling better.

1. I'll take one.
I have to hug you just for listening to Paul McCartney, Willie Nelson, and James Taylor. Great musicians, all of them... B-)

3. Yeah, with coming up on FIVE decades-worth of material.
That'll make for a spectacular concert...

Truth be told, though, I'd rather smoke a spliff with Willie...

I'm still so grateful to him for his support of the Texas State Dems' walkout a few years back.

:hug: Thanks for the hug!

4. What is so great is that there is a great mix of ages in the crowd.

Many of the people in the crowd were not even born when the Beatles broke up.

They are begging for more.

Willie was good to.

I just discovered this HDConcert channel, worth the cost of the cable.

:hug:

5. I remember reading a book by a journalist who followed The Beatles
around on their first American tour and reported on the concerts and the behind-the scenes stuff. He stated that he'd been covering rock concerts since the early days of Elvis, and had never seen such a broad range of ages as at the Beatles' concerts. He reported on the irritation displayed by many of the audience members in their 20's and 30's with the screaming teens. The adults went to the concerts to actually listen to the music.

The reporter (I've forgotten his name) spoke with an adult in the audience, asking him why he was at a concert for what was still considered a teeny-bopper band. The guy said: "Their music makes me very happy!"

That's some pretty cool stuff... B-)

:hug:

8. One guy had his baby there.
Sir Paul still has it.

One hour of solid music.
