1I am enjoying watching this video. My father worked part time for Burns International Security. At this concert his job was to be the guard for Paul. At one time we had a picture that someone had taken. It was a picture of Paul a young lady fan and my father. Someone stole the photo. When we tell people the story no one believes us. On this video I can see him in a few frames. Unable to freeze frame large and clear. would love to buy a copy of your video. My father had to explain the photo to someone at Burns. His explanation was, this man and his daughter appeared he must of had a press pass. My father said no photos. Paul said he would allow one. My father allowed only at Paul’s request. The photo shows my not so happy looking father. My father asked when questioned if he could have a copy. He was givin one. That is the photo I would love to get a copy of. Your video must be taken when they are leaving which had to seconds after the photo was taken. Again love the video and am going to tell my sisters and brothers. I have 3 sisters and 5 brothers. My son watched this and he got a kick out of seeing my father. He now must believe our story

2Wow! That’s a great story – thank you so much for sharing. I do not own this video, I simply put the video up on this website. However, I will see if I can locate a copy of the video for you. If I can help, I will email you privately.
Thanks again for sharing, and best of luck finding a copy of the photo, I hope you have success.

3(Regarding the above comment from Cathy) I am Cathy’s brother and I have seen the video on YouTube and was able to pick my Dad out in a second. It sure would be nice if we can indeed trace down a copy of the photo she mentioned. If anyone out there has any info please feel free to shoot Cathy or myself an e-mail at galogalog@gmail.com.
