Paul McCartney @ CitiField 7/18/09

Last Friday I got back from Europe, and the next day I was off to CitiField to see Paul McCartney with my friend Shane. I saw McCartney at the Garden a few years back, and the bad news is that the CitiField show is almost the exact same set list. Plus, since this was supposedly a "historic" show, there were rumors of special guests joining Paul on stage; but that didn't happen. on Saturday. However, since it's Paul McCartney - ya know, a former friggin BEATLE - I'll give him a free pass. He sounded great, and it was a beautiful night for an outdoor show. Set list? You got it:

2. Jet

He did Calico Skies this time, which is one of my favorite McCartney songs ever (I'm pretty sure he didn't do that one last time I saw him). But instead of a slow acoustic, he gave it a little "umph" with a full band including an accordion. The video's a little boring but the audio came out good:

Some cool news around the corner...I've been working with my new pal Jenny, who has been designing a brand new purgatorycomics.com (I've seen what she's got so far, and it's awesome). The DVDs are ready to go out and soon, ordering online will be a piece of cake.

Also, I found some inspiration in Europe (especially for some new characters I want to write). It was an amazing trip in general; I'll have to go into that another time. I'm still jet lagged apparently, and I think I have a cold. So, bedtime for me!

DVDs are Here!

Today I went to Icon to pick up my 1,000 Purgatory Comics DVDs! They look great. Again, it's a bare bones disc with the movie and no special features, to allow for as much disc space as possible to be used in the Hi-Def film compression. If you're part of the cast or crew, I'll be mailing these to you as soon as I get back from my trip (I'm leaving for Europe tomorrow).

While I'm away, I have someone working on the new web site (purgatorycomics.com version 3.0). It will feature a way to buy the DVD online for $10 each. That will hopefully launch before summer is out.

I'm off to explore Europe for a couple of weeks, but I'll be back in mid-July to pick up right where we left off. I'm excited to finally have DVDs!!!
