I just wanted to write my thoughts about seeing Sir Paul McCartney in concert. I have been fortunate to have seen him a number of times. It's always been wonderful. This time was no different. One of the things I noticed at this show was how many people spent time smiling from ear to ear. I'm sure I was smiling as I was looking at them. Smiles are always a good sign.
Oddly, I have a feeling that I will never see him do a live show again; probably a combination of his age, my age and having seen him a number of times.
During the show, I felt like I was saying goodbye to an old friend. A friend I've never had a conversation with, shaken hands with, hugged, shared a meal with, never helped move or bailed out of jail. Yet this is someone special to me. Maybe because he never did ask me to help him move. No, that's not it. It was the gift.
Thank you Paul (and John annd George) for all the joy you've brought to me. You sparked my interest in music which is one of the greatest gifts I've ever received. It continues to make me smile.
Well, I deliberately soaked up every minute of the show and made sure I said goodbye to him after he finished the last song. He is forever responsible for one of the good parts of who I am.

I think you should go get french kissing tips. HA! Ha...he he he. I can't handle it, it's too funny.
Anyway, what about poor, sad Ringo?
OK...I omitted Ringo and he obviously was part of the magic. At the Milwaukee show Paul said "I think its time to show our appreciation for our dearly departed friends John, George and Ringo." I forgot to mention Ringo but Macca bumped him off! The french kissing tips are awesome!! lol
