PAUL: "THIS IS A FIRST... AND A LAST", PAUL AUTOGRAPHS FAN’s FOOT IN GREENSBORO CONCERT

• Paul said it was "a first.""And a last," he added. But there he was, on the stage of the Greensboro Coliseum, autographing the foot of a fan he had earlier spotted in the audience holding up a sign that read, "Trick or Treat, Sign My Feet."
  Cartney joked about the apparently Halloween-themed sign a couple times during his sold out Greensboro performance, then surprised the audience during an encore by bringing up the woman, who identified herself as "Nina," for a signing, which he said he had more or less "promised."
  Paul first sprayed Nina's foot with water or some sort of cleaner and wiped it off with a towel, coyly looking at the audience and shrugging as if to say, "Hey, whatya gonna do? It has to be done."

  Other highlights from the show:
  
  - Paul paid tribute to John and George. He played the heartbreaking "Here Today" (before playing it, he talked about the importance of telling people how you feel about them because you never know if you'll get another chance).He also played "Something," - first on a ukulele, and then a powerful full-band version. He talked about going to school with George as kids. Paul got on the school bus one stop before Harrison and they eventually began sitting together and talking about music.
  
  
  - The show itself was a special effects spectacular, with an endless variety of photos and effects appearing on the video screens behind McCartney, an elevating stage, and lighting and lasers in every color of the rainbow. But the special effects highlight was undoubtably "Live and Let Die," the James Bond theme McCartney composed. The stage exploded with flames and sparks flying everywhere. The pure heat of it all could be felt by audience members far from the stage.

  Paul and his band played a short instrumental snippet of Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady." Afterward, he told a short story about being friends with Hendrix and how after the Beatles released their landmark "Sgt. Pepper" album on a Friday, Hendrix opened a London concert just two days later with the title track. Unfortunately, he also knocked his guitar way out of tune in the process and Paul chuckled as he recalled Hendrix searching the audience for another rock legend, Eric Clapton, in hopes that Clapton might help him tune the instrument.
  - There was at least one glitch during the performance, but Paul handled it with grace and humor. At one point there was a loud humming in the arena. "You probably think this is part of the show," Paul told the audience as he and the band waited it out. "It's not." The noise sounded like it was perhaps the coliseum's air conditioning unit cranking up. The noise was stopped after a few minutes.
