Major Event at the Carrier Dome is Paul McCartney

[Frozen]

I get it, big show. But when I hear major of that I'm not really thinking Paul McCartney

Fair enough. What would be a major show in your opinion?

Are there really any "major shows" anymore that do not involve Classic Rock?

I think the crux is event vs show.

For an event I'm not thinking of something along these lines... maybe an NFL preseason game, or a detailed announcement of renovations. A number of things in my mind could constitute event, but maybe that's a misinterpretation.

McCartney's a huge name, but, a major show imo opinion would be a band or act that is currently one of the tops in the industry. McCartney's mainly big bc of the Beatles. Wonderful in his current role, but not quite the same. I honestly put Billy Joel & Elton John significantly beyond him in their current format.

It's all about perspective I suppose.

Is that similar to seeing Lon Chaney walking with the Queen.

Saw Paul McCartney with my girlfriend at the Vet.
Doing the Werewolves of London!!!

That's uncanny!

That's exactly what I was thinking of!

Warren Zevon lyrics!

Wow.

It's like you read my mind!

I'm early 30's and I'm pumped to see him. I was hoping to be at the LSU game but I bought tickets to McCartney because there's a good chance that it won't happen. Several of my friends went to his shows in Albany or Toronto a couple years ago and said that he still sounds great and puts on a hell of a show. Plus how can you argue with the playlist? (And 41 songs!)

When I saw him at Yankee Stadium a few years back, he never left the stage during the concert. When his band mates took a break, that's when heated acoustic guitar or ukulele. The only thing keeping me from seeing him again is my hotel and plane reservations for New Orleans.

So the upper deck tickets seem to have moved pretty fast. Not sure if the second level is any good for concerts?

Also unless you're in rows A-E the acoustics stink. Gets weird with that overhang

That's what I was thinking, we had extra seats in H for hoops this year and I hated the acoustics. Not the worst thing for basketball, but it's everything for a concert.

Appreciate the advice!

I know we might as well not even talk about it, but what about the service charge! It was 24.50 per tix, that's insane; plus another $2 per tix for facility charge, so if you want 2 tix you are spending $55 extra.

Paul McCartney to perform in Carrier Dome this fall

Section 127, 9 rows above the floor. Should be very solid sight lines and acoustics, if a bit far back.

I liked when we used to enforce the anti-trust laws in this country.
