Set List critique

Please God no. No tributes for George Martin. ENOUGH with the damn tributes.
but it would be nice to hear "In My Life" some tributes are needed but.. hmm.. if he is doing tributes for dead people (like his beloved wife Linda, George and John) so why is he making them to his actual wife?

It would have been nice to hear John sing In My Life. Not Paul.

any change in setlist could be nice

absolutly. Instead I prefer songs like Wanderlust or other solo juwels

Why do people hate "My Valentine" so much? I think it's classic McCartney.

I love it too. Talk about pure McCartney, this song is. And yet it has an evergreen feel about it, like it might have been written in the 1940's. Probably was and Paulie's lifted it from something...

It's "pure" McCartney indeed (are we gonna all be throwing that around now?) However, I'm pretty much over it live. Yeah, I get, it's for Nancy...but I've heard it five times live...and it's not exactly the most exciting song for a first-timer that it's worth keeping...I'm surprised there wasn't a worthy replacement on "NEW" for it.

I agree. At the risk of upsetting some folks, I like it better than 80% of the material on "New."
-
My Valentine is OK. It is not in the same category as Maybe I'm Amazed or My Love. It's a tribute to songs of that era. So were You Gave Me The Answer and Baby's Request, songs I prefer.

+1. Instant classic McCartney.

I love the song. My ONLY beef is he plays it for his missus at every damn show.

I mean...you know, can't he sing it to Nance over breakfast or something?

Now McCartney hand-picked a 65+ song solo compilation and overlooked 'Take It Away', we can say for sure that one will never turn up in any setlist...

Ha ha! VERY true! Besides, it's not like she is at every show. I can see doing it the night she is attending.

I don't think it's as deliberately nostalgic as those songs. I think it's a modern twist on a bygone era, sorta' like George Benson's updating of "This Masquerade."

Maybe Macca will play some of the lesser known jewels from "Pure McCartney" at his upcoming concerts
