Paul McCartney
1989-90 Tour
004-PMWT-Lyceum Theater Pre-Show and Press Conf
August 24, 1989
On this date Paul and the band took up residence at the historic Lyceum Theater in New York City for the day. A short pre-show for the press, followed by a press conference and then a rehearsal performance lat er that evening. The Pre-Show and Press Conference were captured here as broadcast on WNEW-FM in New York. Resident DJ at WNEW Scott Muni (who refers to the album as "Flowers in the Dust")had a regular afternoon show which always launced with a Beatles track or two. This day Scott was broadcasting from the theater to provide us with a glimps of what took place inside. While the Press Conference was apparently broadcast nation-wide on the Westwood One radio Network, the balance of what is contained here was a WNEW exclusive. The Press Conference does end short on this broadcast but I have never been able to confirm if more was included on the Westwood One broadcast. So if anyone knows please speak up. There is also a bootleg release of this material on Phantom Records but it is not as complete.
The final track in this collection is a Capital Records promo interview which was also recorded from the theater this day.

A few hours after the Press Conference a 90-minute rehearsal show took place but a recording of it has never surfaced. There was a fake floating around for a while but the actual show has yet to appear. So if anyone can shake that out of the trees I would be eternally grateful.
