Three days to go till the Cardiff show. Apparently my tickets were sent out yesterday, so hopefully they'll be waiting for me when I get home. I'm getting quite excited!
The national newspaper for Wales, the Western Mail, has had a couple of McCartney-related articles in the run-up.

Yes. Though I've just put in a request for a photo pass, so I'll gladly abandon her in the audience if I'm successful

And now the drum roll…
I'll be seeing Paul on August 8th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Not enough exclamation marks if you ask me!)
I stayed home from school to try and get tickets, and nearly didn't succeed, but yes, I'll be going! It's in Toronto, and the seats are absolutely astronomical so it'll be best if I bring some binoculars, but, I'll be in dear Paulie's presence none the less!

Ja! You would leave your chidren on the sidewalk if John Lennon were telling you across the street "Sunii… I want a kiss…" 
BTW Guys.. don't forget to take your lighter to the concert…
Edit : John Lennon was…. not were.. I know he was very crazy but multiple personalities he didn't have….

Well, it's not quite like that. Snappers are normally allowed in the front for the first two or three songs, sometimes just one, so I'd only be away from her for the first bit. Besides, I don't know if I'll have any luck with the pass.
We're going with a couple of friends anyway so she wouldn't be on her own. But an army wife… she sometimes refers to herself as a Beatles widow, and has spoken about making a badge saying "Olivia, Yoko and me" (I'm not really that neglectful, honest).
Alissa – great news!

Pah, accreditation is full according to Paul's press person. Should have got the request in earlier. No problem, I'll take a camera along anyway.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I love it!!!
Bummer about the press pass. But .. I have a question.. are cameras allowed in concerts in there? I mean it because in Mexico they're not. (Everybody sneaks their camphones anyway. First time I regretted not having a camera in my cell phone 
)

I don't know. I've been meaning to phone the stadium but haven't yet. It's unlikely big SLRs are allowed, but small digital cameras should be OK. I'd imagine they tolerate without explicitly encouraging it.

I was allowed to bring in my Nikon, but one of the staffers told me to put it away. If it's small enough you could bring a camera.

I really wish I could go see him live, but he hasn't performed in Australia since 1993! I wasn't even born back then… There are rumours that he's coming back next year, so I can always hope!

Well that was something. Concert of the year for me, do doubt about it.
http://www.beatlesbible.com/20…..m-cardiff/
I got the setlist at the end from the sound desk. I got two songs – I'm Looking Through You and Here Today – on video (the camera was a bit shaky in the second so I didn't upload). I've also got loads of photos I haven't gone through yet, but I might make a little gallery out of them.
Wow, the songs, though. What a showman – Macca and his band played for just about three hours, with energy to spare at the end. The highlight for me was probably Live And Let Die, but Hey Jude and Helter Skelter were wonderful. I've had Got To Get You Into My Life in my head all day too. So many memories.
Paul's concert in Hyde Park, London will be streamed on YouTube tonight from 8.30pm UK time: http://www.youtube.com/bornHIVfree
