I am taking the wife and kids to see Paul McCartney this Saturday. We have club level seating. Anyone else going?

I'll be in VIP seating side-stage, looking forward to a great show.

I wonder if, as a tribute, he'll sing that song he did with Michael Jackson back in the 80s?

My kids are sensitive to loud noises otherwise I would have gotten seating up front. I was offered seventh row on the field but decided further back was best.

Being offstage by the curtains is pretty cool, I'd hate to watch a show where the rabble watches it.

Is it just me, or does he look more and more like Angela Landsbury every year?

At the concert
A) The tickets stated 7:30 PM start. The show didn't start until 9:18 PM. Since it was billed as a "family show," this start time was unacceptable.
B) Half the bathrooms were out of order with water flow issues until 7:45 PM. This problem effected women more than men.
C) They ran out of lids and straws for sodas.
D) Many credit card machines, and beer taps were not functional, at several stands only the syrupy Guniness was available. you had to go from stand to stand to find one that took credit cards, or the type of beer you wanted.
D) Paul performed "Michelle, my belle" live for the first time in years in honor of our First Lady.
All in all, I give the show a B+, the stadium management a F.

Yeah, my wife went and kept sending me texts of how much FedEx Field sucked ass - bathrooms not working, no credit card machines operating, etc. I laughed because it continues to prove that anything associated with Dan Snyder sucks dick.

I heard about the horrible traffic when I was halfway home from the show. I will say one thing, FedEx VIP access saves much time and trouble that the commons experience. Our bathrooms were fine, clean, very accessible. Food wasn't the best but was good. And it took a total of eighty seconds from the time I pressed my ignition button to when I was off the property. Great show, and it was fun actually meeting a Beatle!

Comments on the Washington post board about FedEx Field are ripping Danny Boy to Hell!
