5th-beatle:
It will be very cool if he opens one of the concerts with Can't Buy Me Love. Anyone else would like that?
I definitely prefer Eight Days a Week. It would be nice to hear Can't Buy Me Love after Jet.
-
How about Eight Days A Week as the opening song on June 07 and Can't Buy Me Love opening on June 08?

Yes. Magical Mystery Tour exhausted itself.

What do you think about that all the board members who go to the show will hold the same sign. We can ask Paul to play a specific song that we will decide to ask together, If we all hold the same sign, we can catch Paul's eye easily. What do you think about the idea? Do you have any idea for a song we may ask for?

It's worth a try! Frankly, any song which is not in his regular setlist would be great to hear, especially Another Girl!

I would vote for Everybody Out There should it's not reincluded in the setlist.

Another Girl is a good option, VM/RS and Junior's Farm too. What do you guys think will be the best? We have just a month until the concert.

Do you want to know a secret. Played twice during a 2003 soundcheck. Two tribute with one song!
-
The only fair chances are 'Alligator' or 'Big Barn Bed'.

If he'll play Big Barn Bed it'll be wonderful!
-
So what's the decision? Big Barn Bed? Another Girl? Junior's Farm? Is there any way to create poll in the comments section?
-
I'm always interested in hearing more Wings songs: Big Barn Bed Helen Wheels Silly Love Songs Soily Beware My Love Goodnight Tonight Any of these would be awesome!

Many of those songs mentioned above were played in 2009 or 2012 over here. Plenty other not rehearsed for years. The only way to succeed in this kind of thing is to pick an irregular song, though one which is recently fully rehearsed or easy to fill into the set. 'Ram On' was done because he had the ukelele in hand anyway, and he played the song before in soundchecks. Same can happen with 'Big Barn Bed'. Then, 'On My Way To Work' was proposed during perfect spots in the set, with instruments aligning to how they rehearsed it, and had the "goodwill" factor. Hoping for anything truly offbeat in McCartney's set is a pipe dream.

Yes, That's the point. We need to ask a song that the band knows to play, something that was omitted from the setlist and was played during the 'Out There' tour. Junior's Farm can be a great option in my opinion, Another Girl too. Coming Up and Letting Go was soundchecked during the tour so it can be an option, any other ideas?

'Letting Go' was played in 2010-2011 already, 'Junior's Farm' in 2011-2013 including Rotterdam, Antwerp. Also, both won't happen with 'Hi Hi Hi' and 'Listen To What The Man Said' and 'Nineteen Hundred And Eighty Five' already in the current set. It's either 'Big Barn Bed', maybe 'Alligator' or 'Bluebird' or it's a lost cause. Unless someone makes a birthday sign for an old staple...

Got To Get You Into My Life, C Moon, Let 'Em In, Hope of Deliverance, Ram On, Bluebird, Flaming Pie , Penny Lane, Birthday, Every Night Drive My Car, One After 909, Things We Said Today, Junior's Farm, Big Barn Bed was all soundchecked in the last shows.

'Big Barn Bed' can be AMAZING!

Got To Get You Into My Life, C Moon, Let 'Em In, Hope of Deliverance, Ram On, Bluebird, Flaming Pie , Penny Lane, Birthday, Every Night Drive My Car, One After 909, Things We Said Today, Junior's Farm, Big Barn Bed was all soundchecked in the last shows.
'Got To Get You Into My Life', 'Birthday' and 'Drive My Car' are uber-staples, played in the majority of gigs in 1989, 1993, 2003, 2009 and 2012 he has done here. 'Flaming Pie' had the 'solo track in early set packed in between Beatles hits' spot for 6 years, played in 2009 here. Same for 'Junior's Farm', see above. 'Let 'Em In' was a staple, played in 2003 over here, 2012 in Antwerp. He won't skip a 'new' addition on piano over it. 'C Moon', same. 'Penny Lane', old staple, gets out for Liverpool in 3 weeks. 'Ram On', done in 2012 here, played "spontaneously" no less than 20 times. All these made place for the "new" or earlier additions, some after being completely worn out, and are pointless to ask for. 'Things We Said Today' is a good one, but it's a rotation song in the slot of acoustic songs anyway, if he decided he's going to play 'And I Love Her' and 'I've Just Seen A Face', then that's it. 'Hope of Deliverance', this would be the #1, but I can't see McCartney overhauling his set on the spot, getting Abe Jr. to the front. 'One After 909', now this is a very good option, a rocker, easy to fill in. 'Every Night' and 'Bluebird', less likely, solo, deeper cut (for his target audience during those gigs), ballad, seems to be saved for South America for some daft reason. 'Big Barn Bed' could be what 'Ram On' was for 3 years, the best option.
