i was like.. what did he(billy joel) say? he and my friend was like PAUL MCCARTNEY.. and with that ....1-2-3 -4... she was just 17..... omg what a thrill!
and if you read the story of of how he came to be at this concert, it is a zillion times more magical!
i was there as well i thought it be a perfect setting if elton john was there that night as well and i thought he would be there because elton had a concert in jersey the day after this concert so he was in the area but paul mccartney did rock shea to the floor
I was there that night...I was also there on Tues., Aug. 23, 1966 @ 7:30 PM to see Paul AND John AND George AND Ringo. Wow...talk about bringing it full circle!!!
my 52 year old dad jumped on his chair like he was a little boy when he heard him say please welcome sir paul mccartney...and then i went equally as nuts...amazing moment in time being there for this!
but people were definitely suspicious of something... there was a group of people across the stadium from me that had a huge drop down sign saying "PAUL IS ALL" haha
You got what the pros seem to miss--close up crowd shots and reactions. Check the girl's reaction at 2:45, if that dont look like a shot from 1964 or '65 I don't know what does. It is amazing to see the young people in the crowd reacting the same why they did over 40 years ago--very cool.
We saw Paul in DC back in the late 80's. I'll never forget it. I think we sang better than that. (-:
