Seeing Paul McCartney perform live is like walking back through each chapter of life.

Far before I knew how to read or write, I was introduced to The Beatles. Even as time moves on and things change year after year, the music has always remained a rare constant. I would venture to guess that most of the sold out crowd at United Center these past few days would also agree.

Tuesday night marked just my second time getting the chance to see Sir Paul, and the first in nearly nine years. Having it be the final show of his 2025 Got Back tour made it all the more special. At 83 years old, it's pretty remarkable to know that after over six decades, Macca is still performing near three hour sets filled with the greatest music ever written with zero breaks.

Other than the first photo, which I took shortly before Monday's show, all shots below were captured with my iPhone on Tuesday.

An unforgettable evening.

"Dodger Power"

After being away from 35th and Shields for a bit, I returned to the ballpark last night and was happy to have captured a couple of cool moments.

Photo 1: MVP frontrunner Shohei Ohtani blasts his National League-leading 24th home run of the season, while tying Roy Campanella for the franchise record of nine consecutive games recording an RBI.

Photo 2: Just two innings later, Dodgers star first baseman Freddie Freeman belted his 12th as Los Angeles takes down the Chicago White Sox en route to their 50th win of the season.
