BOYCIE:

I would be great to have a Unplugged sequel with the current band,but a proper tour to go with it would be great too.My set list would be as follows: 1.YOUNG BOY 2.FRIENDS TO GO 3.LITTLE WILLOW 4.I WILL 5.DON'T LET IT BRING YOU DOWN 6.BLUEBIRD 7.TEDDY BOY 8.THINGS WE SAID TODAY 9.YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY 10.ALL THINGS MUST PASS 11.(MARIE'S THE NAME)HIS LATEST FLAME 12.TWO OF US 13.SOME PEOPLE NEVER KNOW 14.RAM ON 15.HOPE OF DELIVERANCE 16.MULL OF KNITYRE

Good list. I would add Calico Skies.

MaccaBeatles:

Don't forget Silly Love Songs! I unshamefully love that song and bassline! Also some of the songs from the Beatles years, Rain anyone? Paul is an amazing bass player either way think of how many people he's inspired to play bass since 1963 for example.

Band On The Run has great bass parts too.

Nice idea, Audi, and I would make a few changes: I would ommit RDR because we have "The Cavern" on DVD, and I would add: - Rough Ride / How Many People / Motor Of Love to FITD ...

Are there live versions of "How Many People" (other than the Put It There home-video)" and "Motor Of Love"?

I have a version of How many people from a show called:Countdown on 22 May 1989.

I have, since, seen this footage. I think they performed that song several times during that promotional tour -- which surprises me, not only because of its subsequent obscurity, but because Paul and his band never did it on the '89/'90 tour or even in soundcheck, unless I'm wrong.

SusyLuvsPaul:

Self indulgent of me, but I wanted to re-read my concert review which I seem to recall seemed to describe the Second Coming (almost), it's in this thread somewhere

Glad you did because it reminded me of taking my daughters to see him. They loved the concert and thanked my wife and I many times for taking them !!

Well, I attended two shows at MSG and remember that Figure of 8 and Rough Ride didn't go over that well at all. I love Flowers In The Dirt, but at the time of the concert the album was pretty much out of the top 50 and none of it was being played on NY radio. Put It There got a great response, but half the crowd went for a beer during We Got Married.

I was at the first MSG show and while they crowd did not go crazy after "Figure of Eight" I still give McCartney credit for doing it. As he said at that time, he wanted to show he was a relevant artist and open with something new. I think that was important to do at that time because he had not played live in the US in 13 years.

I agree. Paul said that opening with "I Saw Her Standing There" (the originally planned opener) would've displayed a lack of pride in the new material.

Sgt._Pepper:

I've always LOVED his 2002 entrance! The big silhouette of the Hofner, Paul's shadow, and then, BAM! Right into "Hello, Goodbye"! It's truly memorable for me because it was the first time I saw Paul in concert!

Yeah , I Loved this too! The 89/90 pre-show movie was superb.I'm sure it was made by Richard Lester. It built things up to a frenzy going through all the years , culminating with "NOW" - and then Paul "magically" appeared - superb

Could Livia & I be any cheesier?

Realistically, I just can't see him coming back up to Scotland for a show ever again.

He played the SECC in 1990 and failed to sell it out, his next show up here was the Hampden one in 2010 and that failed to sell out too, so why travel all the way up here with the cost of crew accommodation when he knows full well that people like us are willing to travel down south to see him.

It's worth noting too, that tickets for the Hampden show were on sale on the day itself for just £5 (my ticket was £55 plus fees much like you two, I guess) to try and fill out the stadium and it still didn't sell out.

Much as I’d like to disagree with you Johnny, I can’t unless he was to announce a farewell UK arena tour - that might just generate enough “last chance to see a Beatle in Scotland” publicity for the Hydro to sell out. Sadly the days of Macca playing and selling out shows in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee and Aberdeen are distant 1970s memories

^ Ain't that the truth? Never gonna happen.

This is one song I will give him a break on. Linda played a big part in this songs backup vocals and I don't see how he would replicate that emotionally with somebody else.

New York, New York! $$$ set asde ( incluse tickets and merch!). Will settle for a "striking distance" anywher in the tristate area! Please, please, please!
