  | A remarkable short and intimate concert by Paul in Nashville to tribute Phil Everly.

Quick and funny notes:
Ticket prices range from500 to 30.000$. When Paul asked a woman sitting in the 2nd row if she had bought that view, she nodded yes. Simon smiled: "I wouldn't have paid that."
Note 2:
Paul belongs now to the group of artists who use pre-recorded whistle tracks onstage (Me and Julio)

  | I read the article differently to you ,Bodo, that Paul did not use pre recorded whistle.

 | I agree with Brenda. I think the writer was trying to point out that unlike some others, Paul actually did his own whistling. |

| Ops, sorry.
Yeah I was wondering anyway why Paul should stop whisteling now. Remember his whisteling was bad in the late 1990s, then Jim from the band was doing the whistle solo for some time...and later Paul did it again (better than before). I wonder, did he take whistle-lessons? ;-)
Hm, so how can I delete that error now...
What does he author mean when he/she writes: "take note: artists who use pre-recorded whistle tracks onstage.
I mean, whom? |

I was surprised. I thought that he would really do a concert of mostly EB songs, arrangements of songs from them that marked him. Instead, it was a mini-acoustic performance of his stuff. Mystery Train: we know it by heart now; Here Comes The Sun: done in 2009 for the R&R 25th anniversary concerts in New Yorkl 'Will I Ever Be Loved': done for the Sting and Simon tour.
No, really, I would not have paid much for that show. |

 | I think it was a nice mix of songs including a duet with Brenda Lee for a wonderful acoustic tribute for Phil Everly and to raise funds for the COPD Foundation. Well done Paul!

| Well done indeed Paul and Mark. Patti Everly said that when she reached out to Paul to headline the private concert he was honored to help. Paul has always been very generous performing in very many benefits over the years. The set list included two Everly Bros songs" When will I Be Loved ?" and the duet with Brenda Lee "All I have to do us Dream"? It was a tribute to Phil Everly and not an Everly Bros Tribute Show. I agree with Ans it was a nice mix of songs and for a great cause which people who attended would be happy to support. |
