It was such a surprize that the news item I watched never even mentioned that he was there!!! They only did a story that Billy Joel had done the final show there and that the first ever show at Shea was the Beatles in 1966! Interestingly, the Fox item above does not even mention that the Beatles held the first rock concert ever at Shea!!! It is certainly fitting that Paul should have been there for the last!!! :cheers:
 
Neat...really neat.

My old co-worker Skip Tullen (since retired....he taught physics with us), was one of the sound technicians at that '66 Shea concert.

<span style="color: #660000">Had my chance in high school and got to see
the Fab Four live. My mom was NOT amused when I began to grow
my hair for a Beatle cut! What a memory that concert is!!!

Unique thing for me was arriving on these shores in 1963 as a 16-year-old. No one had HEARD of the Beatles and were wearing "Princeton-cut" hair-dos and flat-tops. I already had a "mop-top" and was viewed as "rather strange", so I adapted to the "local look". A year or so later they started getting air-play with songs I already knew by heart!! A real "deja vu" moment in my life! I got to experience Beatlemania twice!!
