[mrRainbowRobot]

I wish I could go to One of Paul's concerts...but it's soo expensive! I wanted to go to Ringo's concert at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles a few weeks ago, but I couldn't)': I only live an hour away! I was that close to seeing him./:

[hodgins]

i just cried

[Dara604]

@hodgins Me too hodgins!!!

[lk63]

Marta and Dara, congratulations on meeting Paul!!!!! I'm curious, how did you get to meet him? Did you just ask the guard if you could go up on stage?

[Dara604]

@lk63 Thank you ik63!!! Paul saw my sign and he invited me up on stage!!! It was an experience I will never forget!!!

Dara

[Dara604]

@lk63 and through prayer too!

"Here's my Hofner, do something with it"

"I'm the cameraman, what could I do with it? I think I'd give it to this sneeky looking guy"

"I haven't got a clue! Let's give it to wix"

"Let's stand in front of Wix. Nobody is allowed to see how the hofner is transported"

[Tyler18GoPhils]

@Volendammtje hahaha

[mcgov92]

I am the woman from the video and my first name is Marta. I am still in a complete state of shock and can't believe that it's really me when I watch this. I am a recent breast cancer survivor and this was my eighth time seeing Paul in concert. I've been in love with him for 31 years (I'm 41 now) and never in my wildest dreams could I imagine that night. I had his autograph permanently tattooed on yesterday. :) Next to the birth of my two girls, this was the most amazing day of my life!

[Tsr10]

@mcgov92 Hi Marta! I'm Tom and took the video on Saturday. You wouldn't believe the amount of emails I recieved about if I heard from you!!

[mcgov92]

@Tsr10 Really Tom? My life has been a whirlwind since Saturday night. As I said, I'm still in total shock. I've been contacted by people who took pix that night but I would love to have a copy of this video if there is anyway you could send it to me as you did Dara. Thanks so much!

[Tsr10]

@mcgov92 Hi Marta! I would be happy to send you the video to you. Please send me an email to tsrogers59@gmail.com with your contact info. Great to hear from you!!!

Tom

[primaveraIII]

@mcgov92 How beautiful!! Congratulations indeed!! I hope to live your experience some day. With love from Peru, Rosa

[phillyguy672]

@mcgov92 You are soooooooooooooooo lucky !!!!!!! that was a chance of a lifetime !!!!!! i wish that was me up there !!!!!!!!

[catzactz]

@mcgov92 Marta, what an amazing experience! I was there and cried while watching you--it was just incredible and my heartiest congratulations to you. You represent so many of us who have wanted to meet Paul our entire lives--we are living vicariously through you! I do have a question, however. Why does the article in the newspaper have someone else's name in it?????

[mcgov92]

@catzactz The article in the newspaper (and all over the news, actually) is one of two women that Paul signed the following night in Philly. It's not me. She must have contacted the news media when she went to get her tattoo.

[catzactz]

@mcgov92 Thanks for clarifying for me. Of course I thought the article was talking about Sat. night, since it didn't specify the date, and I was wondering.  Again, congrats! Enjoy the memories of that night forever.

[kitty9tales]

@mcgov92 you are not 41...I saw that and went, "oh look, he signed another kid again..."

[mcgov92]

@kitty9tales You are VERY KIND!  You made my day! Aside from all I've been through in the last year, I feel the best that I ever have in my life. And after Saturday night I'm going to feel like a giddy little girl for a long time!

[kitty9tales]

@mcgov92 do share your secret.

[goldustgypsy68]

@mcgov92 I was there and very happy for you!! I love Paul too and I'm 42 :)

[winchell77]

@mcgov92 i was there, it was unbelievable and thats so cool you had that happen! im 18 years old and one of my dreams is to meet him!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@mcgov92 This was just SO cool Martha. Congratulations on meeting Paul, the tattoo, the hug, and hand shake! You looked SO bewildered as you left the stage...LOL...rightfully so. Now I wish you'd post on your channel the tattoo! That'd be so cool!

[LoniZeppelin]

too cool of a guy!!!

[krazykelsey18]

I was there :D

[LADYoooMADONNA]

I just had Paul signing my arm for a tattoo in Liverpool it's a great thing!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@LADYoooMADONNA  Cool...congratulations!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@richeye Oh btw...the eleanor rigby one I mentioned is distorted until 0:34 or so but very good once at 0:34.

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

O.K. So NOW, all we need is Martha, the first young woman to come forward to tell about getting his autograph on her back tatooed! Come on Martha! I am waiting to hear from YOU too!!! Bless your heart...have you not gotten over the shock yet? lol I would most likely still have my head way up in the clouds too! lol

[Carlann58]

Dara, how exciting it must of been for you last night to meet Sir Paul McCartney!!!!

I was the one who stopped to talk to you outside after the concert. I have a neurological disorder, and I was wearing mafo's just like the ones that you were wearing. I'm sure it was a night that you will always remember. Carol

[Dara604]

@Carlann58 Hi Carol!! It was great meeting you too!!!  Thanks so much for watching my dream come true!!!

Dara

[Tsr10]

Dara, what a wonderful night and thank you for making it special. Let me know if you want me to send the original video to you.

Tom

[srriley1]

@Tsr10 Hi Tom

, Dara and her family are very dear friends of mine, we met at my former Beatle's themed restaurant, SRRiley's over 5 years ago. I am thrilled for her and would love to have a copy of your video to keep any way that is possible?  Sandi (sriley1821@comcast.net)

[Dara604]

@srriley1 Sandi!!! Thank you so much for watching my dream come true!!!

Dara

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@Tsr10 That is very sweet and kind of you Tom. I would just go ahead and do it. :-)

[kgbeatlefan]

What a night! I was fortnuate enough to have been there.

[SalazarGuggenheim]

Look the fear of Paul "Wix" Wickens to see a photographer holding the legendary Paul's Hofner bass!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

HAHAHAHAHA....I think the first poor girl was in SHOCK! So cool!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

Oh my God! Tears streaming down my face, especially for the woman in the wheelchair! Oh how touching!!! YOU GO my darling Paul! YOU'RE GREAT!

[Dara604]

@iwillrocknroll4eva I am the woman in the wheelchair, Dara! He truly made my night a memorable one!!! My biggest dream came true!! I got to meet Sir Paul McCartney!!! Thanks for watching my moment!!!

Dara

[kgbeatlefan]

@Dara604 Hi Dara! Andre Gardner spoke about you on Breakfast with the Beatles this morning, you are one of his faves. It was a VERY special moment indeed. Wasn't Paul just incredible?! All the Best!

[Dara604]

@kgbeatlefan I missed Andre talking about me this morning because I didn't get to sleep until 3:00 in the morning! Paul was fabulous!! This is something I will NEVER forget for the rest of my life!!!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@Dara604 So cool Dara! That was such a special moment and I cry each time I watch it. He's amazing, huh? How very fortunate you were! Do you remember, did he smell good? hahaha just wondering...I'm so happy for you!

[Dara604]

@iwillrocknroll4eva Yes, Paul is definitely an amazing human being!!! He smelled like a Beatle, lol!! Thank you so much for watching my dream come true!!

Dara

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@Dara604 lol...I can just imagine he would smell just wonderful...with all his money...I'm sure he has the best cologne...I like Draakar for men...it smells sooo good and I just can't imagine how good he prolly smelled...[not to even mention getting to touch and hug him! :-) ] I mean he hugged you for what seemed like a few minutes...btw...I sent the video to him on his channel with my comments that Tsr10 taped...it was just incredible! My best to you Dara always!

[richeye]

@Dara604 We were sitting just behind to you. It was my 8 year old son he was referring to when he spoke about the young kids in the audience. We were totally thrillled for you and your folks. Such a deserved honor. Hello Philadephia, indeed!

[Dara604]

@richeye Thank you so much for watching my moment with Paul! He truly made my night! Paul is the best!!!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@richeye hahaha...I was wondering if that person would come forward on here and mention that! What was it he said while waiting for Dara? Something like, "hey dude, what's up?" wasn't it? I'm sure you're son will never forget that either! I know I wouldn't! I would be telling all my friends and school friends; heck, everyone I came in contact with. That was cool too!

[richeye]

@iwillrocknroll4eva Like any proud dad, I was hoping he would invite Sam up, too, but this was just fine. There were a number of times during the show, when they put Sam's face on the video screen, including a full close-up shot of him at the very end of Hey Jude. The tickets were actually a gift, one that will be remembered for a very long time!

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@richeye WOW! Tickets were a gift??? Man! How cool is that? Those tickets up that close are incredibly expensive! What a GIFT! I was privileged back in 1993 to see Paul in Atlanta, Ga. and I have still pics from that concert...I was 39 then and I'm 56 now but it's just like it was "yesterday" in my mind...but to be that close as you and your son was AND the tickets a gift? Incredible! How exciting! I want to see him just ONE more time b4 I die...God, I pray that wish comes true!

[richeye]

@iwillrocknroll4eva I'm fairly certain that the people who did that for us had no idea the seats were going to be that good, but I am forever in their debt. For an 8 year old, the kid's had a pretty good summer. He also saw Paul join Ringo on stage at Radio City for Ringo's birthday.

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@richeye OMG! Now that was a good one too! I just got a really good video shot of that by maggieclarke...I had one already, but this woman did a better job than the one posted by CBS or something like that...just added that one to my channel yesterday...it is incredibly close, crisp, and clear...check it out on my channel under Favorited Vids lower left side...especially "Eleanor Rigby" shot by her. Were you close for this one as well?

[richeye]

@iwillrocknroll4eva Not quite as close. I had them about 10 rows back, but still great seats. I do work in the concert biz, and so had some pull with Radio City, but nothing as incredible as these. Also, I was on the road, so it was just my wife and son at Ringo's show. I'll check out your footage. Thanks again

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

@richeye My pleasure I'm sure! :-)

[hodgins]

that is amazing
