Paul McCartney Secret Soundcheck Gig - Manchester 19 December 2011

On Monday 19 December 2011 Paul McCartney played a concert at the Manchester . Arena as part of his On The Run tour. This was my first McCartney gig and it was sensational. My super-expensive ticket included watching Paul and the band at the soundcheck - an amazing experience. I managed to discreetly record some audio on my phone of the soundcheck gig, skip to 02:35 if you want to get straight to this. The following day (Tuesday 20 December) I was listening to the radio and heard Stuart Maconie talking about attending the soundcheck and he mentioned the girls with the Argentina flag. It was then that I realised he was sat a couple of rows behind me and I had snapped a picture of what he was referring to at 01:38. So the first couple of minutes of the video has Stuart Maconie and Mark Radcliffe talking about the soundcheck gig on their radio show and my audio of the soundcheck itself follows.
