First time seeing Paul tommorrow, is it worth rocking up at the gate open time of 4:30 , or can we afford to rock up a bit later ( also im a sucker for merch as he hasnt been to australia since i was 5...) .
Get merchandise as EARLY IN THE DAY AS POSSIBLE. The crowds ate so immense that it's pretty much impossible before during and after the concert.

Obviously someone in his entourage. Maybe Brian, Rusty, Wix or Abe? Who knows?

maybe it was Paul himself. Sometimes he uses his official account to post as himself, and he was holding an iPhone in one of the previous clips.

Can't be as Paul is seen in the video in the other car!

'sup with his meter piano AND vocal wise during parts of 'Lady Madonna'?
Nothing extreme, but he seems to water it down a bit, probably getting too difficult to play. Vocals sound okay btw. -

Nothing extreme, but he seems to water it down a bit, probably getting too difficult to play. Vocals sound okay btw.It's just a smidge slower than usual. He's never shown any slacking in his playing. Gosh, maybe even Paul is getting tired of playing it! Listen to this one that is way, way too fast right before it...and it makes the new one seem REALLY SUPER slow
-
Funny how the setlist variations doesn't even get posted any more, as repeated often beforehand, it was going to be a 'Birthday'/'I Saw Her Standing There'/'Get Back' situation. And indeed, night 3 got ... 'Get Back'.
Is that Rusty going into 'Hi Hi Hi' instead at the very start of 'Get Back'? -

Haha, indeed, the slowness is one thing and crazy in comparison. But he now plays more staccato - more simultaneous with the vocal lines instead of wobbling funky in between - and skips a few notes with his right hand during the breaks of his left hand, for example during the intro. And this is his party piece! Still nothing major, it just stood out.

Is that Rusty going into 'Hi Hi Hi' instead at the very start of 'Get Back'?It sure is! And Paul shot him a look right away! That is such a massive letdown to hear the end of Sgt. Pepper's Reprise and NOT hear "A Day in The Life" afterwards...

I'm not really hearing it, but I just hear a tiredness in it. It's not inspired or fun. Time to retire the old bird. And for the record, ever since he started playing it with Wings...he hasn't played it true to the recording. He has ALWAYS dumbed it down on stage.

Can't blame him, playing the same note for note set every working day, and then suddenly a change: this is the only time the "rotation song" got played before 'Hi Hi Hi', and it has a similar tempo. Abe Jr. and McCartney are on the same page though, given away by the open hat on the 4.

That's one unique trait that I've never noticed consistently from anyone other than Abe. He's already establishing the groove of the next song, the second the previous is done...even if Paul has an old repetitious story in between.
