Brooklyn, NY, Barclays Center, June 8th - ARCHIVE

Wow-- Just got back from Barclays. Our train wasn't until 1:06... Anyways, BRILLIANT gig. Bathroom lines out the door during My Valentine. Louder than the past, and the gig seemed to go by much faster. Enjoyed every second of it, can't believe it happened. Cue: post concert depression

The setlist I posted earlier appears to be incorrect, pulled it from an article but found I've Just Seen A Face on youtube when it says Things We Said Today in the article. http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/music-arts/paul-mccartney-rocks-barclays-center-article-1.1367299

Just back from the show. It started much later than I thought it would. He took the stage around 8:50. Is that normal for this tour, or was he just late tonight? Highlight for me was Maybe I'm Amazed. His voice sounded so strong! I though All Together Now was great too, but I was partial to all the songs I never heard him sing before. I avoided all videos of the songs he premiered on this tour and was glad I did. Loved Your Mother Should Know and Rita, and Hi Hi Hi was a real thrill. Barclays is a great venue too. He seemed particularly chatty tonight ... same stories, but a bit more embellishment. I have two seats for Mondays show -- Section 8 Row 4. Great Seats and I can't go. If anyone is interested in them for face value let me know.
Yes, he was later tonight. Usually starts between 8:30 - 8:40. Probably had a lot of backstage visitors tonight from his NY friends and family!

Doesn't look like he used the same stage: http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/music-arts/paul-mccartney-rocks-barclays-center-article-1.1367299

This one matches the previous link except for Things We Said Today/I've Just Seen a Face http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/paul-mccartney/2013/barclays-center-brooklyn-ny-13d9e9d1.html What was new that he did not sing before??? (according to the Daily News article).

Who just walked in causing a stir down below???
It was Clinton. Which also is the reason there was heavy security on the floor. He was 10 rows back in the center.

Great review of the show in Newsday: http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/music/backstage-pass-1.811987/paul-mccartney-amazes-at-barclays-center-1.5440342 And apparently Paul told this story about the late Phil Ramone (who produced Another Day):
McCartney even dedicated ?Another Day? to producer Phil Ramone, who died in March. He added a nice story about how Ramone?s visit to the McCartney home in the English countryside had drawn the attention of the police, mainly because of Ramone?s big Stetson hat. At one point, McCartney caught himself, saying, ?I?m just going on now. I know. I don?t care.?
Too funny. Such a cute ole guy.

What a show last night at Barclay's!! First the soundcheck...Paul was wearing a jacket and tie. Songs played (15) were posted earlier. Great to hear Twenty Flight Rock after so many years...I believe '89 was the last time! He also did Bluebird which was also great to hear. As far as the show, Paul wore the "new" long dark coat which looked similar in style to the ones worn by Wings on their '79 UK Tour. I thought everyone of the "new" songs for the Out There Tour were amazing! I especially liked the opener Eight Days A Week, Lovely Rita, ...Mr. Kite, Your Mother Should Know, and Hi Hi Hi. Loved hearing We Can Work It Out with the full band treatment as well. But, the real highlight of the evening, in addition to seeing so many fans again, was Paul mentioning my son's English Bulldog, "MACCA"....see link:
A FANTASTIC SHOW...can't wait to see it again Monday!! -
So Hope Of Deliverance is gone for good. Boy am I glad I attended the 3 Brazil concerts.

Has Paul kind of stopped bringing people up on stage on this tour? I haven't really heard of many people being called up recently for tattoo signatures, etc.

Hey Mark...great photos. That soundcheck sure was fun!!

Simply WOW last night - can't even begin to express the elation: you all know how it feels anyway!
Think this comes in right behind '89 for me - just fantastic all around. Best bits - finally hearing Another Day live (my all-time favorite of his - yes it was slowed down but gorgeous afaic), Paul's clear enthusiasm in being back in front of his "hometown crowd", and - sorry but - watching him hike up his pants all night long....get that man some suspenders!
Seriously - he was simply brilliant. Roll on Monday! Some photos - hope you don't mind: [[/URL][URL=http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/hollydays64/media/McCartney%20June%208%202013/McCartney_130608_12_zps92b5a22c.jpg.html][img]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b586/hollydays64/McCartney June 8 2013/McCartney_130608_12_zps92b5a22c.jpg[/img">](http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/hollydays64/media/McCartney June 8 2013/McCartney_130608_07_zpsb3ef57ac.jpg.html]<img src=) [[/URL][URL=http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/hollydays64/media/McCartney%20June%208%202013/McCartney_130608_31_zps66e1d8cc.jpg.html][img]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b586/hollydays64/McCartney June 8 2013/McCartney_130608_31_zps66e1d8cc.jpg[/img">](http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/hollydays64/media/McCartney June 8 2013/McCartney_130608_23_zpseefc0717.jpg.html]<img src=)<---pants hike!

Did you actually see Clinton? I was sitting in the first rows of the second section and I saw all the security coming in with the Mayor and that created quite a stir. The bourough president was there too. Didn't see Clinton.

there were plenty of SIGN ME (MY WIFE, MY DAUGHTER, FILL IN THE BLANK) kind of signs last night and he ignored all of them (including the one in front of me, he def. saw it as the gal was most persistent to the dismay of the people behind her who were getting quite angry). The one he did comment on, "sign my wife" he mentioned it and said something like, I can't sign your wife at this point of my career.
