McCartney Live?


I'll be going to see Paul McCartney live in FedEx Field in DC next week.

Having never attended a concert by any Beatle, I figure this is something I just need to do.

So my question is what should I expect? Does McCartney still got "it" live?

In his prime he wrote some of the most evocative and poignant melodies one can imagine. His harmonic accompaniments as a bass player were UNREAL. I am a fan, don't get me wrong. I am saying this more out of frustration. After 70 I just wish he had become more than he became. And I wonder why he didn't.

Ever hear the 'Liverpool Oratorio'???!!!??? (P.U. as they used to say)
Ever hear the 'Liverpool Oratorio'.

Nope. Passed on that one.

I think McCartney is the type who composed best with a collaborator.

Lennon is his best known collaborator but he did well with Denny Laine and Linda McCartney as well when motivated.

The Beatles were a tough act to follow.
If I didn't know better I would think 'Liverpool Oratorio' was a Korean war era punishment for P.O.W.'s invented by the Chinese.
Well, the McCartney concert is in the books.

I'll post more shortly.

Suffice it for now to say he did not play "Liverpool Oratorio".......
Wow, I can understand not caring for McCartney's newer music. However, to call him a has been and a hack, wow.
That's all I can say, wow !
