  • Par Richard Baillargeon
    par Richard Baillargeon Pour la 3 e fois à Québec, la 2 e fois dans mon cas, et pour la première fois dans une prestation à l'intérieur, Paul McCartney nous offrait un généreux périple à travers son imposan- te production d'un demi-siècle en musique-chanson populaire. L'événement lançait sa nouvelle tournée Freshen Up , le lundi soir 17 septembre 2018, dix jours seulement après le lancement, dûment célébré par les fans de Beatles Québec, de son album Egypt Station . Pour ceux qui avaient opté pour la version VIP de l'événement, la fête avait commencé en milieu d'après-midi. Mais c'est plutôt en tant que fan 'simple citoyen' que je m'approchai du Centre Vidéotron vers 18h 30, billet de la section 209 en main. Déjà, des files de spectateurs se formaient et déambulaient lentement en direction de l'angle sud-est de l'amphithéâtre, là où se trouve l'accès principal. Sur la Place Jean-Béliveau, il était impossible de ne pas remarquer le bus à impériale (double-decker bus) aux couleurs de l'exposition Ici Londres du Musée de la civilisation. Au second étage du véhicule, le groupe Les Respectables créait l'ambiance avec leur mélange de mélodies beatlesques, de standards pop et de quelques-uns de leurs propres succès. Je décidai cependant de ne pas trop m'attarder, ayant déjà perçu des mouvements de foule du côté des portes. L'entrée se fit aisément, la quantité des postes de contrôle facilitant l'exercice. Ce fut une excellente idée d'entrer sur-le-champ car le flot des spectateurs allait dès lors se faire constant jusqu'au début du spectacle qui eut lieu vers 20h 10.
