They DID do that at one of the rallies. Last year seems like about ten years ago, but I'm sure they did that!

All of these liberal elitists sit around and say "hey, lets have a TV show about us interacting with each other, everyone is just dying to watch us". Unfortunetly, they appear to be right, but I don't watch these things for even a second. You're wrong about this one. Why do you think we are all still watching?

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Some New York City firefighters got the visit of their lives on Friday when Sir Paul McCartney dropped in at downtown Manhattan firehouses to hand out 100 tickets worth $2,000 each for Saturday's Madison Square Concert benefiting victims of the attack on the World Trade Center.
``We found out that some of the guys here didn't have any tickets,'' said the former Beatle, whose father was a fireman.
``This concert is happening to honor brave guys like these, so when Heather (Mills, McCartney's fiancee) told me they didn't have tickets I thought, 'Well, we've just got to fix that, haven't we.'''
Accordingly, McCartney dropped in on ladder company 55 on Broome Street and ladder company six on Canal Street, both of which sit within blocks from the smoldering ruins of the World Trade Center where some 5,000 people were killed in the Sept. 11 attacks by hijacked jetliners.
McCartney surprised the firemen, who his publicist Geoff Baker said were ``sitting and talking, having coffee,'' handing out 100 $2,000 tickets to the concert.

THat brought me back - it was August 1971 and Who's Next had been in the stores for a week. I'd already memorized the album and saw them in the 16th row at Boston's Music Hall. Most concerts on that tour were outdoors, so when they brought all that equiptment into the 4000 seat MH, it blew the doors (and my ears) out!

HEY!! Don't EVER mock the GREATEST Rock and Roll Band in history! They're extremely talented s--theads. Let's face it. And it's been a long time since "Gimme Shelter."
Can Mick redeem himself? Let's see...
To: Miss Marple
You are just the person I was thinking of.....with your cataloging memory! See post #484.....didn't this actually happen? Or did I dream it!!
To: Aquinasfan
Anything before the Who doesn't matter, except for the look on Susan Saranwrap's face when she mentioned Mark Green.
...Uh...Harrison Ford was drunk.
To: Greg Weston
I wish you "seasoned" Freepers would not rub in that you had the chance to see The Who live!
To: Amore
I like your answers...could you "like" me from what you know?...either way ....God Bless Us All
