| Lol, Bodo is right to be suspicious...;-) I posted them here but they are not mine, I took them from the internet. But I had pretty good seats in the Orchestra section row 15 and 13 and enjoyed the concerts very much.
Thanks for asking Scaaty, the trip also went very well, I made a little fan tour through the city, CP, Brill building, Bleecker street, 59th street bridge etc. I have a good tip for who wants to see a great big picture of Paul (Graceland tour) hanging on a big wall at Radio City Music Hall, join the stage tour which is quite interesting to look behind the stage and see the picture of Paul.
Here you can find some more pictures.

| Ans I completely forgot about the Brill building,
but made a point of visiting the zoo - which most people here didn´t know it existed even those who had been to NY. One´s learns so much being a PS fan:)))
I have a photo of Bleeker Street I wont put it up cos then it would push out your fantastic shots!! |

| He did it in NY 2 years ago during the Surprise tour, truly one of his best songs. I got to hear it again at BAM and it was awesome |

| I saw a documentary about the Brill building the other day, behind the door it´s departed glory, not much activity nowadays. We went in, got the elevator to the fifth floor where Paul´s office is but all the doors were closed. But it´s nice to make a fan picture of the building. The musicshop next door has some rare stuff and a lot of Paul´s music books.
We spend 10 days in NY and also saw the zoo. CP is fantastic, we went there every day (our hotel was at the park) and the park amazed us every time, so much to discover there. |

when I was in the Brill Building lobby, there was a big tough security guard who wouldn´t let us get on the elevator. There is a really good book about the history of the Brill Building, but for the life of me I can´t remember the name of it.

| I wouldn´t want all those people
singing Paul´s songs, why? He would
be better off without them, I never
heard of any of them except Josh
Groban, but I would go to a Josh
concert to see him. |

| This is what I meant to post. It is the book about the history of the Brill Building.
Always Magic in the Air: The Bomp and Brilliance of the Brill Building Era |

others going to? |
