No, he's either saying "Ahh! Someone glued my hand to my forehead!" or "Pooooooo!! My armpit stinks! Anyone got an aerosol?"
I don't think he wears a wig.
He just has hair implants and dies his hair.
He doesn't have implants? :

At first I thought he was pulling a wig off. Now now...don't get all upset cos no, I don't think he wears a wig.
Neither does Elton. Oh, wait...

Now Elton is the one that ACTUALLY has implants...I don't remember what radio station it was on. But on his 2011 Rocket Man Tour w/ Leon Russell, a DJ actually asked him about it and he said it on air. He "rocked" the wigs back in the 80's and 90's tho...

Not sure if "cool" is the right word That's great! I really want to see him this year, preferably after a new rocking album comes out! do you have a setlist?

How else does he get that thick hair? My dad is 51 and balding!

If he actually had a wig or implants then he'd need to get a refund!

Elton John played in Albuquerque about eight years ago, just him and his piano at the Pit arena, 18,000 of us screamed and clapped through the show! A few years later he played here again with his full band at Tingley Coliseum, 12,000 attended, sold out show. He played SOMEONE SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT at that one, my fave Elton song! He is one of the greats, no doubt.

Great setlist, for sure. But too bad he doesn't do songs like "Momma Can't Buy You Love," "Little Genie," "A Word In Spanish" or "Healing Hands" anymore. Were any of those songs in that setlist from that great album he did with Leon Russell a couple of years ago?

Just read on FB someone asking Brian who chose to do LETTING GO, he thinks it was Wix, but then said not many in the audience were familiar with it. Then the person said they would love to hear SOILY and Brian said it is a great song, but again, no one in the audience would be familiar with it. I think that pretty much says it when it comes to the set list. Paul is going to play what the casual audience member is familiar with, not what the hard core fans want to hear from that early 70s album or 80s album.

It's reverse-psychology...to make us think they're not going to change it up. Well-played, Brian. Well-played. (denial ain't just a river in Egypt )

Ugggghhh... With a setlist as his no one in the audience can complain about not being familiar with every single song. I said it before, but Paul McCartney is an artist, a current even, not a friggin' jukebox! Does it matter an audience isn't spoon-fed the whole night?

Let us hope that Paul will eventually skip the stadiums and tour smaller venues for us hard cores! "That would be something .... really would be something"

Sounds like a plan to me.

It didn't help that he was coming onstage donning outfits that were neo/retro throwbacks to early Beatle-gear. In my heart of hearts, I am confident that -- based on The Africa Express thing/the Springsteen performance/12.12.12 -- Paul's planning to shake it up..but in a way that will continue to please everybody.

It would but lets be fair the cost of putting on a small show tour wise would have to be passed on to us the paying customer no one does it for nothing so i really dont see any chance of a small venue tour happening now at this point of Paul's career a shame no doubt but i just cant see it. And lets be fair here the touts would cream the tickets like they always do no matter where the tour is.

We already pay a small fortune to see him -- what's another couple of hundred bucks? Bring it on, Paul.

we have to make paul and the band understand that we want songs like letting go and solily.......... Occasional fans would not complain listening to letting go...they would just be happy just to be there......and that's the truth. Hard core fans are harder to please....so why not please the hard core fans instead of the occasional fans. Occasional fans will probably go to his show once, and that's it...hard core fans will go to multiple ones.

Yup, please it's not like it's casual for McCartney to skip over 'Let It Be' and 'Eleanor Rigby' for the sake of a slightly less obvious one, haha.
