Paul McCartney performed the second of two consecutive nights in Pittsburgh, as part of his “Up And Coming” tour.
From Spinner, August 20, 2010:
Sir Paul McCartney was full of stories, jokes and trivia last night in Pittsburgh, Pa., at the Consol Energy Center, the final stop of his 2010 Up and Coming Tour in North America. The famed rocker even signed a woman’s thigh on stage, blessed a recently engaged couple and got friendly with a baby.
Oh yeah, he played some songs, too — 39 songs spanning five decades over the course of nearly three hours and two encores, more than half of which were Beatles tunes. At 68, McCartney might be giving Bruce Springsteen a run for his money in terms of performance length and endurance. […]
McCartney’s backing band will never be the Beatles, but their vocal harmonies, riffs and stage energy were quite impressive throughout the night. And McCartney? He managed to keep up, rock out, and hit the high note at the end of ‘Hey Jude’ — even at 68.
This was the 2nd concert played at CONSOL Energy Center.
A total of 3 concerts have been played there • 2010 • Aug 18th • Aug 19th • 2014 • Jul 7th

When Paul performed in Pittsburgh for his 2010 Up and Coming tour, he was the very first act at Console Arena. He was given a plaque to commemorate his performance. I made that plaque. I would kill to see a photo of Paul holding it.

Thanks Salvatore for this story ! Do you have a photo of that plaque by any chance ?
