Paul arrived so late for the soundcheck (apparently due to weather conditions) that he had to cancel it. He however took the time to take a photo with the soundcheckers; and those were refunded.
From NewsOK, July 18, 2017:
I woke up, and my ears were still ringing.
Blame Monday night’s packed Paul McCartney concert at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. The former Beatle and solo songwriter ran through 60 years of material at maximum volume and sincerity as thousands of concertgoers sang along. McCartney’s catalog is the world’s pop song handbook. Billions of ears have been listening and half as many mouths have been screaming their affection for a lifetime.
McCartney also made history last night. His Oklahoma City stop of his “One On One” tour broke his own record for the biggest show at Chesapeake Energy Arena. The concert attracted 13,040 guests. The venue shared the news Tuesday morning.
The concert felt like years of studying for the biggest karaoke test ever. It was impossible not to giddily sing with the band.
From mop-topped boy band gems to his “New” material, McCartney belted nearly 40 tracks without an intermission during his three-hour set. No water break was in sight, unless he sneaked one before the encore. What a champ. There wasn’t even a moment where he looked out of breath.
The applause seemed endless after McCartney and Co. took stage at 8:25 p.m., a little late but I didn’t hear anyone complaining. I only heard requests for more.
If you’d closed your eyes during the opening notes of “A Hard Day’s Night” then you would’ve sworn it was 1964 again. I wasn’t around for a show back then, but I was eager to experience a concert with McCartney. Also, indoors with air conditioning.
“I have a feeling we’re going to have a lot of fun in this room tonight,” McCartney said to the crowd. […]
This was the 1st and only concert played at Chesapeake Energy Center.
