I know last weeks' Paul McCartney Montreal shows came up in another thread, but I gotta say the July 27th gig was one of the best rock shows I have seen in a LONG time and wanted to share a couple pics. We lucked into some nice (4th row) seats which put us about 20 feet back from Sir Paul.
The burst first appeared for I've Got A Feeling.....
His singing was spot on, and the band was killin'. Abe Laboriel played drums like nobody's business, and in some ways the most impressive feat was that the band executed the backup vocal arrangements to a "T" on tough songs like "Something" & "Ob-La-Di". And kudos to Paul for keeping it all so stripped down: no backup singers, no horns, no percussionist, no strings, no distractions.
Here's a nice vintage Gibson moment....the three of them trading licks near the end of the show with Paul rockin' pretty hard, during the "Golden Slumbers Medley"....
3 hours and 37 of some of the best tunes known to man. Overall, an AMAZING display of chops, heart, & soul. It does not get any better than this in 2011 IMHO.
And Rusty's blonde 335 looking and sounding pretty sweet:
