PREPARING THE RECORDING
This was recorded in the arena, standing a little left of center about halfway in the venue.
People kept moving around and the portable beer guy liked to pass in front of me several times.
There was some singing along, but all in all not too loud. Sound was quite good for this
venue. I've had worse there. The fireworks in 'Live and Let Die' were so suddenly loud, that
there is a little distortion. For the rest, this is a clear recording, considering I was 
surrounded by lots of people.
Tracks were slightly EQ-ed and volume was a bit corrected, but I kept the dynamics in tact. 
I use no compression. After correction, tracks were split at sector boundaries. 
Flacs are tagged for convenient playback on compatible systems.

ABOUT THE CONCERT
Paul McCartney is a legend. This was my first time seeing him live. He proves why he is a legend.
He delivers a perfect rock show with some of the best songs of all time. His voice is still good,
and though he didn't go for all the high notes, he knew where they were crucial and he did it. 
With lots of emotion and power. There was much interaction with the audience. He did an unplanned
version of 'Ram On' and an impromptu version of 'Yellow Submarine' which was started by the fans. 
Paul even got Rosie on stage in trade for treacle waffles, or so he thought. She got her hug, but
there were no waffles. It shows that Paul cares for his fans and he had a lot of fun. This man lives
his music. I was glad to be there and to able to capture it. It's not perfect, but listening to this
you sense the atmosphere. And that what this is about. Enjoy the memory.
