To me, the highlight of the show was "Maybe I'm Amazed." The early McCartney solo gem was fleshed out perfectly by the young band. By the time the song reached its false ending, they had pummeled the ballad into a surprisingly rocking few minutes. Paul didn't lay off on the high notes either. He screamed better than ever. The song was perhaps more important to the artist after the loss of its inspiration, his wife of nearly 30 years, Linda. He also dedicated "My Love" to her memory and to all lovers in attendance. The tributes that really touched the audience were understandably the ones to his ex-band mates. "Here Today" was done for John Lennon (this one gave me chills) and after a touching story about George Harrison's love of the ukulele, Paul played a purposefully loopy version of "Something" on one of those silly instruments given to him as a gift by George. The mixing of the poignant and the humorous is indicative of the skill and appeal that McCartney and The Beatles always possessed. By comparison, the September 11 tribute "Freedom" was less successful on multiple levels and was (intentionally) completely one-dimensional. Sure, it got fists in the air and had people singing along, but it just came off as completely contrived to be the anthem of that horrible time. I choose to believe that it’s heartfelt, but there's still something a bit icky about it. I would've much rather have heard the amazing new tune "Rinse The Raindrops," but that was not to be. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about the song choices. You can't do that at a show by someone of this magnitude. For "Live And Let Die," massive concussion bombs marked the tempo transitions with a deafening series of booms. After the song, McCartney mocked a heart attack that poked fun at his age. The truth is, he'll be sixty years old next month, and he looked amazing. He looked just like Paul McCartney. The video projected version of the man that reached the fans in the upper tiers of the arena made him look even younger as he played the same iconic bass that he used during The Beatles' touring days. He was also as funny and charming as ever. A hilarious story about "massages I have known" amply demonstrated the ease with which Paul has commanded his career. The body of the show ended with a double lighter waver. First "Let It Be" (which was almost phoned in tonight) and then the arm waving, everyone must join in finale of the "Hey Jude" "na-na-na's."
