00:00I'll stop for a picture quickly, and I'll just take that one probably.

00:14Where are those, yeah?

00:17Hiya.

00:18Hiya.

00:41I'm here tonight because Paul McCartney has been my muse

00:46for I guess as long as I can really remember.

00:49I grew up listening to his music and then learned so much from his music as well.

00:54That's the thing with Paul McCartney, he's timeless, he's a legend.

00:58It seems like he doesn't age and the music doesn't age either.

01:02Nostalgia.

01:04I first saw Paul McCartney in 1963 at the Hume Hippodrome

01:12and he was on with the Beatles and they sang three songs.

01:16They sang Twist and Shout, Till There Was You and Please Please Me.

01:23So it's part of me growing up, so that's why we're here.

01:32I'm a big fan of the Beatles, I've been listening since I was 11 years old

01:38and I just started studying English because of the Beatles.

01:41It's my second concert.

01:45You can't miss one now because you don't know what yours is going to be about.

01:50Like anyone, he's got to step down soon and if we say this might be his last tour

01:55then we can say we've seen the last tour.

01:57And if he does have another one, we'll be there anyway.

02:08We'll be there anyway.
