WEIRD PAUL CONCERT
GALLERY Here are photos
from some of Paul's nearly
300 live performances! Every
show that we have a photo or
footage of will be represented
here. Unfortunately we have
almost nothing for the time
between February 1991 and April
1997!! If you are one of the
many people who have taken
pictures of Paul onstage or
the few who have videotaped
Paul playing over the years,
please contact us if you can
provide any scans! Thanks!! |
