KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Fans gathered outside Sprint Center early for Wednesday night's concert featuring Paul. Some of the fans said they expected his car to pull up to the gate, giving him a chance to roll down the window and wave hello to everyone before he goes in for a sound check.
One fan who splurged on front row seats for the concert said it was an early 50th birthday present for himself. He said there's a special reason he chose to pay the high price tag.

 "I'm actually looking forward to the sound check because that's when he gets a chance to play some stuff he doesn't normally play," the fan said. "And from what I understand, as opposed to just getting up there and making sure the guitars are right, (saying) 'Check, check check' and that sort of business, he'll actually play a small concert for us."
The price tag for that experience is a whopping $2,000.
At last check, some less expensive tickets for the concert were still available.
