Was Wings really that good??

[lobbybobby]

I was there in 76 at the Seattle Kingdome on June 10 at Wings concert, and I've seen the Who, Zeppelin, Genesis, Aerosmith, Foghat, Rod Stewart, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot, Bad Company, 38 Special, Journey, Loverboy, ZZ top, and many other back in the day, and I can say without a doubt that Wings could hold their own and rock with any of them, in fact very few of these band had a vocalist and bass player as good as Paul McCartney!

you lose all respectabilty for seeing twisted sister, quiet riot and loverboy in concert.

step away. just...step away.

I guess I should run away. I saw Men at Work in Atlanta in 83 or 84. Worst show of my life. That would be a fun new topic...."Worst Live Shows"

I guess I shouldn't poke fun. Who hasn't seen a crappy concert. I saw Eddie Money live. Eddie Money? I don't even like Eddie Money. Only show I ever walked out of before the encore even started.

Problem is when you have a Beatle in said band, no one really gives a crap about what songs Jimmy has to offer.

I beg to differ

lets face it guys
it is paul and HIS music
personally i love everything Wings
i have a hard time deciphering Wings as a band as they had so many line up changes
the band paul has now has been together far longer then any wings line up
but there is something there with this seventies period
a certain vibe or sound that paul creates that his band mates seem to feed off
he has never really duplicated it
best thing about that decade was Paul and his Wings
