    This old-timer is excited about going to see Macca tonight at MMP! Never seen him before...setlist from Sunday night in St. Louis was 37 songs, almost 3 hours! Not bad for a 70 year old!!

    We've got pretty good seats for a concert at Minute Maid...behind the Astros dugout about 15 rows up.

    Anyone else around here going?

    Me and my lady are probably just going to catch a quick bite somewhere. We want to get down there kind of early. Downtown will be nuts tonight with the Rockets at Toyota Center and McCartney at Minute Maid.....

    That was an amazing show. I never knew that Something in the Way She Moves played on a ukulele would be so awesome.

    Wow, just took a look at the set list. Amazing, so angry I didn't go! Ending witg Golden Slumbers and half the Abbey Road melody...you would have seen a grown LonghornFan cry. Anyone know if he's making another concert DVD for this tour?

    My old man had backstage passes. I was, needless to say, super jealous.

    Kick-a$$ show, but......

    The logistics at Minute Maid Park were AWFUL! The lines to get in the Crawford entrance were insane, as were the lines for everything else!

    I definitely reminded myself why I don't like going to concerts in baseball parks or football stadiums.....but Sir Paul did put on one hell of a show!
