This past Wednesday my family and I went to see Paul McCartney.
It was magical.
I grew up listening to the Beatles and they are to this day my favorite band. I'll be the first that out the fab four, Paul would be my least favorite. Maybe that's harsh as I've never met any of them. Anyway, sitting there listening to the music and realizing that this is as close as I'll ever come to hearing a beatle play. He played more Beatle songs than I expected, and of course a tribute to John and one to George. I actually started crying during "Something" "Hey Jude" "Let It Be" and "Give Peace a Chance." Those songs mean more to me now than they ever have. I understand a lot more of what they were saying, and yet the meanings still change too. I am so lucky to have seen him twice now, and maybe I will get one more chance to. If not, I am so greatful that I was able to appriciate him live more than when I was 13. He is an amazing, tallented, and genius musician and no one can deny that.
"All we are saying is give peace a chance!"
