Please Please Me – McCartney ‘US’ tour encore, 2005

US Tour

Paul McCartney threw the first Beatles #1 into the setlist for one of the encore performances recorded during his ‘US tour’ and it appears from the footage that this ‘pleased’ the audience very much. The ‘US’ tour began on September 16th, 2005 in Miami FL and finished on November 30th, 2005 in Los Angeles, CA. The tour name “US” stands for both “us” and the “U.S.”, where all the gigs were played. Put together for promotion of his latest album Chaos And Creation In The Backyard, the tour included 37 shows with a great account of it appearing on Paul’s DVD The Space Within Us. Paul’s band members on the tour were the same as they’ve been since 2002 and include Abe Laboriel Jr. (drums), Rusty Anderson (guitar), Brian Ray (guitar/bass), and Paul ‘Wix’ Wickens (keyboards).

I always see people in the audience with tears in their eyes. Hearing Paul perform the old Beatles songs affects me the same way. I've seen Paul six times over the years, starting in 1976, and I get misty-eyed every time. Funny, but I can't help it!
