Paul McCartney Says Good Evening New York City With Upcoming CD/DVD
Fans of the New York Mets bid a tearful farewell to their beloved Shea Stadium this summer as it was turned into a parking lot for the adjacent Citi Field, now the team's home turf. They had a little help in drying those tears, though, from one Sir Paul McCartney who christened the stadium with a sold-out series of concerts (on the very ground where The Beatles once performed their legendary 1965 concert).

(JUST A FEW MORE REASONS TO HELP SAVE PASTE)Next week, I'll celebrate my 6th anniversary at this magazine. When I started as Paste's second-ever intern on June 1, 2003, we were still a tiny operation. Only five of us were in the office full-time: publisher Nick Purdy, editor Josh Jackson, assistant editor Jason Killingsworth, myself (who would go on to become associate editor) and my intern cohort, Steven Bevilaqua.
