I don't know why but I don't like "Letting Go" song all that much, sounds kind of draggy to me, too slow or something, in parts. "Got To Get You Into My Life" is a sweet upper of a song. Exuberant. Some one said he sang "Can't Buy Me Love" with Bruce Springsteen, twice (?) !!
Close! He sang "I Saw Her Standing There" with Bruce twice Friday night.
That disappointed me. Why did he not do "Twist and Shout" with Bruce like he did in London instead of the same song twice?
It was weird for sure. It would've been better to do BOTH songs. It seemed like everyone on stage was really uncertain as to what was supposed to happen, so I thought maybe that's why it was done again? Or just as a cocky jab at the fact the plug was pulled the last time? I dunno.

Ugh, don't get me started. We ranted on that for awhile last week.

I loved it, reactions of the band (Brian Ray and Abe Jr.) when the boss - not The Boss - went off script for once. Great spontaneous moment, they were having too much fun.

Or even long and winding road, c moon or let 'em in. I feel that the piano set needs one more song

Honestly, I wouldn't have minded having that back. When I took my long-time fan of an Aunt last year in DC and this year in Tampa, she was surprised to have not heard it. That's why I've been okay with the recycling of some of these songs that have only had a break for about five years. Last night was my girlfriend's third macca concert and her there were ten songs she had never heard even though she has seen the "One on One" tour once already. It's all about perspective, and folks like us have an extra hard time remembering that I think.

I went to the 3 concerts last year in Argentina, and will be in Sao Paulo next month for my 6th concert. I'd take any change honestly, even if I have heard them before like long & winding, and the previous tours songs that he seems to be bringing back

To be honest, the type of changes he does this leg is what I'm campaigning for, for years. But then on a regular base at every gig at any territory, and not these "hm, after 10 years we gave this one a rest for a year and a half" choices. I would say 'Getting Better' (2002-2004)', 'For No One' (2004-2005), 'She's A Woman' (2004), 'Penny Lane' (2004-2005) etc. Not even mentioning regular solo soundcheck material. It also makes no sense to do 'One After 909' and 'Good Day Sunshine' once every 100 gigs, but then forcing yourself to rotate a song and having to go back to a song you dropped the other year after 500 shows.

I thoroughly agree. I would've been drooling for any of those and the ushers probably would've been tranquilizing me during my reaction to "Penny Lane". "One After 909" is really cool live, but it falls flat with a lot of the crowd. It rocked in Virginia '15. I haven't heard "Good Day Sunshine" yet...it would be a good replacement for Mr. Kite or Ob La Di.
-
Perhaps "Here, There and Everywhere" is more of a classic than "Long and Winding Road." More important. Superior. I have a soft spot for "Road," though. Wish he'd do them again.

I'd say (or I hope so at least) he's probably saving that kind of changes for a new tour that replaces one on one, next year maybe?

Well, that's another level. I hope for a potential new tour he digs deeper than those songs mentioned. The time for that is now, but for a new tour one expects 15 new additions, including solo material.

It's been a dream of mine to see him do "For No One." I've missed out on that one, and it's one of my favorites. I just think it's such a perfect song: it says it all in just a few concise lyrics. Maybe one of these days...

Knowing his history, he will re-add it in a beautiful spine-tingling arrangement next tour, and then drops it within 3 months before anyone outside a small part of North America got to experience it, for 'All Together Now' ...

Ha ha! Probably! And it won't be at a show I attend!

I never need to hear those three songs again. Ever. Oddly, I would gladly welcome Silly Love Songs -- a song I don't especially like -- in this set. I'd imagine it would be a great crowd singalong at this stage...and the bass is sweet.

I'm not watching from 'Let Me Roll It' until encore 1, but I see the Periscope user is broadcasting the full set, ay?

Seems so, so far. I've got it on in the background, and take a peek now and then. I'm having some trouble with this one, for some reason. The other night worked great.

Tuning in to check, ADITL again. Not going into the iconic climax but instead into the pedestrian 'Give Peace A Chance' must be the most tragic example of blue balls in rock and roll live history.
