Sir Paul Freaking Badass Rock Idol McCartney

     Last night, I went to a Paul McCartney concert.  It was one of the greatest experiences of my life.







        I've been a Beatles fan since I was very young. Around the time i first liked doctor who actually. I'd listen to the Greatest hits (1967-1970) at night before going to sleep.  And though I've always preferred Lennon (keep on jammin john. keep on jamming.) This was still amazing.

ok, now the actual concert part


    He started with Magical Mystery tour.  It was kind of at that moment that i realized "Holy craptard paul mccartney is in the SAME FREAKING BUILDING AS ME!!!" Needless to say, the whole thing was awesome. Hey jude got the crowd going absolutely CRAY ZEE.  I mean, dude had fireworks. He's seventy. This is kind of off topic, but who's jude anyway. Is this jude still alive? Does he know that millions of people around the world have memorized a song about him? Did he even exist in the first place? Alas, we shall never know.
WHY JOHN WHYYY? 

          He sang a song he wrote after john lennon died. Ohmygod, I was crying. Blackbird was excellent. He also played the ukelele. THAT is how you age my friend, "I'm seventy years old, it's a wensday night, I'm in front of 1600 people, and you know what, I'm gonna play the ukelele for my dead friend."Though it was a brilliant show (paperback writer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I do have some small issues.

1. There was no fool on the hill
2. There was no benefit of Mr. Kite
3. WHERE WAS PENNY LANE??? MCCARTNEY THAT SONG IS YOUR CROWNING ACHEIVEMENT AS A SONGWRITER!

But I digress
