Sir Paul ensures dry gig
Sir Paul McCartney ensured his 3,000th gig wasn't washed out, as he arranged for dry ice to sprayed on clouds above the venue.
The Sun says organisers spent £20,000 in arranging for three jets to spray the clouds above St. Petersburg.
The operation worked, and sunshine broke through minutes before Mc Cartney went on stage to the cheers of 100,000 fans.
A source close to the 62-year-old said: "He thought it was a fantastic idea. The dry ice helps hold the water within the clouds."
A similar technique was also used by Russian president Vladimir Putin, ahead of the city's 300th anniversary celebrations.
His tour is set to end in front of 120,000 fans at Glastonbury.

Even better (or worse, if you prefer): the concert was not held in a stadium or outdoor arena but in a square in St. Petersburg's historic center, close to the famous Hermitage museum, in which are kept some of the most precious paintings in Russia. And the conservator of the museum is furious because the high decibels vibrations of the concert can damage the paintings. These are normally kept in a controlled atmosphere and don't even travel by plane because of the vibrations. But when all the area is rocked by Macca's lullabies...  |

Why paul get's a free pass and the Stones always ridiculed? I guess it's been that way since the 60's... |

" To dream the impossible dream.
To fight the unbeatable foe.
To bear with unbearable sorrow.
To run where the brave dare not go.
To right the unrightable wrong.
To love pure and chaste from afar.
To try when your arms are too weary.
To reach the unreachable star.
This is my quest.
To reach that 10K.
No matter how hopeless.
No matter how far.
To fight for the right,
Without question or crap from S.S.
To be willing to march into hell
For a heavenly cause.
And I know, if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful
And calm when I'm laid to my rest.
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable stars. "
