Free Paul McCartney concert in NYC on Friday

Forums:

Location and how to attend have not been announced. There seems to be some sort of tie in with the album to be released, Egypt Station and MTA Metro cards, so maybe a special card get you in. Even if you don't get in, the concert will be live stream on McCartney's YouTube channel. 

Central Park ?  MSG ?

Couldn't be somewhere small like CBGB.

It will be somewhere small to reduce liability.

Location: 1221 Avenue of the Americas.

Not the Apollo.  

It will be a tiny show like the two he recently did in London.

XM Studios: 1221 Avenue of the Americas, NYC

& it will sound compressed & like crap.

If it happens, Paul was on XM today and made some serious erroneous comments about John Lennon, he will be hit by law suits for sure

^^ yup

Note to self. Stick to 8th Ave on Friday. 

Time?

u needed to enter thru spotify lottery

150 plus invited guests

Chuck here went a show there that's the count he gave afterwards.

It was great when Paul played on top of the Ed Sullivan theater for the David Letterman show 10 years ago.

Looked so fun.

I'm flying into Newark that day so if I decided to enter. thanks for the heads up

i went both ed sullivan shows and the highline ballroom show

Gonna be at Grand Central Terminal....

I entered the sweepstakes.  Haven't heard back yet.

But I saw where it's only 150 people.

Guess they'll probably do it in a TV studio where they have game shows.

In Brooklyn at the moment - turns out that the show’s director is a family friend - there will be a live stream. 

He shouldve just done Prospect Park and played to the masses etc....

I'm pretty sure that being an ex-Beatle allows you to do whatever moves you at any point of time. It's not like he really needs the extra exposure so he can become famous. Last time in NYC he set up shop in Times Square on short notice (hours warning) and had tens of thousands of people show up. This time he obviously wants to go more intimate. 

BTW, the new album isn't bad at all. 

Ha, no ski, im just being totally selfish...if he had played the park...i coulda gone, nothing more than that as a thought above etc...and ya, egypt station is alright...

Now Phil....

Got to hand it to Paul for being out there and still rockin' - but his voice is definitely getting shakier and warble-ier every tour.
