Paul McCartney in Manchester - Oh Yeah!
- Tweet,Stumble or Digg it! TY~
I was suppose to arrive at 7:30am but after customs and getting suitcase it was 1pm- sad.. cos I didn't know where to get the train the cab cost £25 wheww... there goes the walking money .. gotta get monies somehow .. I was walking forever, last night, trying to find a shopping center .. Whew thank God, I arrived a few days early .. thos will be my last post for a bit since I have no computer ..
Well what did you do?
My 1st few days consisted of trying to find plug adapters for appliances, what a pain in the ass,, the hotel, finally provided me with a few.. it was interesting walking around the Manchester as I went to the right of the hotel and walked to a mall several blocks away .. people were very friendly and inviting and especially in awe that I had flown from the US to the UK to see Paul McCartney... :) people I spoke to wanted to know what the US was like.. I loved the friendliness of the people in Manchester.. I had told several people .. I was going to Liverpool.. to see Macca there also.. residents of Manchester claimed:
I LOVE LIVERPOOL! it made me think of the football rivalry ..ha! not one bad thing said against Liverpool from the people of Manchester..swear!
one thing to mention, the pizza isn't that great .. but when you add the garlic sauce it's more tasty..
is veggie piazza a veggie pizza? well... where's the veggies on the piazza?
I was happy when gig day approached.. I had seen several people whom I hadn't seen in years.. alotta laugh & giggles.. however,...there was an air of superiority/ elitist attitudes. really? FUCK THAT!!! I thought it was my lack of sleep>- Note to self... David Lynch charity gig....NO! Check this, nobody's a better fan than the next person whether you have met Paul McCartney, your self, been to two gigs or 100's ...attitudes really sucked. Embarrassing- Why do people act like they are so much fucking better than the next fan?.. is it money? -
well lets fast forward to the Sound check it's self ...more of that later ... after being searched by security - we really didn't have many problems gaining entrance..the reception it's self was set up beautifully.. hot drinks and pastries.. we hadn't been at the reception area no more than 5 minutes. When Tim from MPL, ( I believe his name was ) announced Paul had arrived early.. it was time to go to the sound check it's self.. we scurried into what seemed like a small arena.. outcomes Paul, and he greets us all!! woohooo..
it's really something to attend those sound checks. each one different.. they were really jamming tightly today.. everyone dancing and having a great time - it didn't seem so cliquey at the sound check..:) Macca reads signs and of course I brought the BLUEBIRD sign . Paul read it I'm guessing as he broke into Bluebird ..There was no dedication this time or change of lyrics like at Yankee's Stadium..this past summer..
I do appreciate Paul singing it... very much. There were two girls from Argentina, sisters who had a banner " Go PAUL -LUV from Argentina"- Paul read it of course.. (I have a banner that large to hard to hold by myself )..than there was Phil with his Christmas hat ..too funny, some fans from Japan, the UK and of course the US ...and one lady who came from Korea..was she related to MJ Kim Paul's fotographer? Paul called no one up on stage during Sound check.. and soon it was over off for a dinner.. I'm forgetting the Sound check set list at the moment...oops~
part two coming soon!

Paul McCartney in Manchester - Oh Yeah!!
After a long bout of being sick - now getting to my blog posts
Going back a few weeks to Dec 16th
I'm in Manchester and it's costing me 30p per min to type you here... OK so it's been an adventure already .. we fly in to Manchester and had to be diverted to Birmingham.. the flight was already a 1/2 late .. as we sat in the plane for a few hours.. mind you, we were in a very cramped aircraft !! everyone was upset of course it was snowing buckets at the airport also ice.. finally, at 11:30am we flew back to Manchester it was still snowing and tons of ice around.. I was up over 24 hours with no sleep .. I was suppose to arrive at 7:30am but after customs and getting suitcase it was 1pm- sad.. cos I didn't know where to get the train the cab cost £25 wheww... there goes the walking money .. gotta get monies somehow .. I was walking forever, last night, trying to find a shopping center .. Whew thank God, I arrived a few days early .. thos will be my last post for a bit since I have no computer ..

On My Way To England To See Paul McCartney!
Hello people. getting ready to leave for England to see Paul McCartney in Manchester & Liverpool in the morning- in less than 12 hours.. Just packing now..

I Love Liverpool..Oh I cannot wait..
Note: Remembering my passport is key ..ha! In the last two weeks Macca had played Paris, Cologne, Bologna, London, Stockholm, Finland & tonight Moscow..I heard from friends that all gigs have been superb and Paul in fine voice.. woooohoo I cannot wait to hear Paperback Writer they kick ass on that song! & some of the new songs, Paul, has added to the set list Least fav, live 'Lemme Roll It"
HEY You! reading this, were you there at any of the above gigs? Are you going to Rawk out in England- Manchester or Liverpool-post a message ...
.
Manchester & Liverpool surely to be a party- especially Liverpool.. Every Paul McCartney gig is an event to had and experience.. Cannot post from the road unless I find cheap internet :) Sure hope this will be, my time of times, to meet Paul.. a dream for sure .. but I hold onto that dream..
9:19pm haha! everything doesn't fit into my rollie .. I had to pull out the big suit case, geez.. more airline fees..my budget is tight already...

On The Run Tour - Europe!!
de- Tweet,Stumble or Digg it! TY~
.
Who's going?~ who's excited?!!!! Hey people it's November 24th- in the US they are celebrating Thanksgiving ..Other parts of the world, who knows? What I do know is, Paul McCartney is about to kick off the last part of 2011 in Europe.. with his 'On The Run Tour'.. He recently played Abu Dhabi. I for one have no idea where Abu Dhabi is? I'm sure it was great, as ALL Paul McCartney gigs are great and if you have a ticket your in for a treat!
So me, me,.. Lil Ol self will be heading to Manchester on December 15th.. Not ready for it yet; have to get psyched! Life's been happening, distracting me from these up coming gigs and my blog.. For those that follow, please, keep following...sorry for the lag..
"With a Little Luck, God and Macca willing, maybe, I can meet him this time?!! "
wish!!!!!!!
Damn, it's so bittersweet as these will most likely be the last two gigs I see Macca in concert . I thought New York, this past summer was my last- however, I got creative and so I AM going- Yeah ME!!! After 40 plus McCartney concerts I am past tapped out.. awww..in car repairs mind you freakin BMW's hahahaha.. I was walking to work and on the bus the other day as my vehicle broke down for the 10th time saying: "Man, I've been half way around the world, seeing Paul McCartney all over the place and here, I have no money to fix; let alone buy a new car"..It was really something to think about as, I continued to walk.. In just a few short weeks I'll be flying to England,, and here I walk, no money in my pockets- an odd sobering fact,,,
I am so grateful of this day that I will be able to go to the UK too see Paul McCartney, especially in Liverpool.. I have not been to Liverpool since 2003 (One of my most favorite- memorial gigs to date ). Last, Macca was in Liverpool in summer and winter in recent years - I could not get a ticket! .This means so much; for a broke ass working girl like me.... so please, stay tuned.. and let's see what unfolds.. Paul McCartney is in Italy Rocking them Italians this week on November 27th.. I'm sure he will be greeted with a passionate crowd.. I must say, I dig the European gigs the best, just sayin :)
stay tuned!!!
will be adding to this post often
Here Macca and John Hammel, riding their bikes & seeing the sites; looks like a park in Bologna, Italy - Nice gams Paul. He~ :) Oh wow!

You gotta see this people, fans can add their suggestions to improve his website- download music- pics add their reviews.. t There is so much- see link here new Paul McCartney.com A must see to explore ... this is what us fans have waited for - for years.. Well done!!
Wow what a day yesterday! Paul McCartney played Bologna Italy- adding 3 New songs to his set list - Come and Get it- The Word- All You Need Is Love.. what myself and fans did on his website was to join the new webby.. It is amazing People.. I signed up for Premium status. A Pioneer.. not sure what exactly that entails but Premium membership gives yo access to Photo's - Blogging- a Juke Box spanning Macca's entire career.. a whole gang load of goodies that are not available for regular membership.. you can leave comments - on Tour blogs video's- pics add friends..etc the possibilities are endless.. It's difficult to navigate the site at first as they are working out all the bugs .. to join Paul McCartney- new website to become a fan or a premium status fan click the link below- you will not regret it!!
