        I know it was done before, but you should add to 2010 "Maybe I'm Amazed" . I didnt think he would sing that one again.

            i think 'ronnie wood' new something we all didnt because he said on the way in it was the song he was looking forward to hearing the most.[old faces cover]. do ya think ronnie may have been given 'the nod'?

              Out of all of them, the most surprised I was, was when I was standing in a crowd in Kiev and Mrs Vandebilt came on, I never jumped so high in my life...and that stayed that way until he shocked us all with Ram on in Cardiff. I couldnt even speak when he did that

                When Paul did "Ram On" in Nashville, I was beyond elated.

                  I didn't know he sang "She's a Woman" in recent years. Wow, it sounds really good. He should do that one more often (drop Drive My Car or something)

                    That reminds me... what about songs you were shocked he dropped. I couldnt believe it when he didnt do Drive my car for a couple of shows, those were the best shows ever

                        Letting Go has been my favorite surprise. That performance is SMOKING. I'm really hoping he brings it back next time he goes out on the road..

                          Was surprised and elated he did "It's So Easy" in Tulsa, but I can't find a good video of that performance that's audible and clear. I'd love to hear him sing that. Haven't been able to, so far

                            Why does Sun is shinig get less than 500 views when there's so many thousands of Macca fans out there?

                            What was Oklahama like?

                              I was fortunate to see Paul in Lisbon in 2004 while visiting my brother who lives there.The set list had numerous changes from the set i'd heard the year before, it included She's A Woman, You Wont See Me, Flaming Pie, I've Got A Feeling, Helter Skelter, I'll Follow The Sun, For No One, In Spite Of All The Danger, Got To Get You Into My Life, Get Back, Penny Lane, All Things Must Pass and Drive My Car, quite a big change from the London show i saw. I agree on bringing She's A Woman back, it would sound much fresher than Drive My Car.Hearing I'm Looking Through You on the last tour really showed that Drive My Car is surplus now, other Rubber Soul classics deserve airtime.

                                  When Paul said " the next one is for the Wings' Fans" during the 2005 concert in DC, I fell head over heals as he started singing "Too Many People" ! I felt it in my bones ! Best surprise EVER This is what happiness feels like !

                                  Coming Up !

                                    Not part of his set, but a general surprise was 'Slow Boat to China' - it was cool (as a one time thing) to see him do that

                                    The Willow turns his back on inclement weather

                                      I would be shocked and awed to hear any of those gems on Back To The Egg. Been listening to that album lately and its really great. Give me an Old Siam Sir and I'd be going nuts! .. I'd like to see Paul belt that vocal, bet he could still do it really well. and Rusty and Brian could get all over those big guitar lines big ol riffs.

                                      its like trying to catch the sun on the water..

                                            Oh god, YES! I've thought his voice these days would just nail it, but with no proof. That video was just what I've been waiting for! All My Loving is a fine song, but She's a Woman is a rocker! I also like I Saw Her Standing There. But, if he's going to a do an early Beatles song, this is it.
