Macca Rawks the Crowd with Intimate Gig..

edit I accidently posted 101 club - meant 100 club- looking at One After 909 lmao!!

Earlier this week, Paul McCartney, announced, he would be playing a one off,  lunchtime gig at  The 100 Club in London; before finishing off his incredible Up & Coming tour In Liverpool & London, ending out the year- this coming weekend..Paul, surprised fans with tunes he has never played  at gigs ie: Honey Hush & Hitch Hike a Marvin Gaye tune he had played  earlier this week at the Apollo theater in New York...

Some of those picked for the setlist below are what you could hear at a McCartney sound check.
( Oh, so intimate ) Paul, played to an intimate  crowd of 300 to 350 fans queuing in the freezing snow and rain.. waiting to get in- for those lucky enough to score tix..Paul rarely plays intimate gigs. The last one at Amoeba Records in Hollywood in 2007 where  we waited in line for 3 days- than separated by CD stands. So, these gigs are truly special..

He even brushed the hands of some- in the front row- damn!...Dawn & Rick you're lucky to have been there :)  Ahh, my friend Danica was there also?!!~ dang-it lol and me a dreadful 7 weeks I've had- and sent home again for being sick.. If I had the money and the time I'd be in Liverpool & London too- sniff- ha!!  So, .......how was YOUR lunch?

The Joint - Reviews and Reaction
.
"This crowd knew every note and every word by heart, but no one there had ever heard these songs played with such intensity""McCartney has his best band since, well, the Beatles, and they harmonized angelically and rocked ferociously""Hair-raising. Spine-tingling. Maybe I’m amazed."Las Vegas Sun"
.
McCartney remains a sharp and agile performer, his voice as supple, warm and elastic as ever.""Macca signatures Let It Be and The Long and Winding Road... still have the power to raise gooseflesh."USA Today"
"All You Need Is Paul''
"Vegas Correspondent Joan Myers Gets Blown Away by Macca at The Joint "
The energy at The Joint was like being at Bruce and U2 combined""The night was truly spectacular and took this fan on an emotional journey... Thanks, Sir Paul, for reminding me why I’m still in this biz…and feeling happy and fortunate to be here."Hits Daily Double
"The concert of a lifetime"Las Vegas Citylife
.
"What a clever idea -- revealing totally benign footage, nothing gameplay-related, as a surprise, knowing that it was going to spread virally all over YouTube and gaming forums over the weekend. Also illustrates just how seriously the band takes this game.""Man oh man, does Paul
McCartney still have it or what?"Wired.com"
.
"Festival goers at Coachella this weekend weren't only treated to Paul McCartney's hits-filled headlining set Friday night; they also unknowingly witnessed the debut of footage from the upcoming 'The Beatles: Rock Band', due out September 9th."Rolling Stone.com"
.
"In a world of shaky cams and YouTube, what happens on a rock-concert stage is going to reach the world. Over the weekend, the first video game footage from 'The Beatles: Rock Band' debuted in massive fashion as legendary Beatles bassist Paul McCartney rocked through a set with his band at California's Coachella music festival. The footage spread across the Internet, first as a rumor that the visuals behind McCartney were a hint of this September's MTV-backed 'Rock Band' spin-off. Later came confirmation on McCartney's website that this was, indeed, the most unusually staged debut of video game footage ever."MTV.com"
