Thought the whole band were amazing last night.The 3 lads on the horn section brought alot to the show.Thought the set list was nicely balanced between Beatles/Wings/solo.Set/lights/Pyrotecnics was amazing.Not one ounce of trouble.Only my 4th time of seeing Paul but this has to be the best.Wonderful Christmastime was my highlight(with the snow falling)Mike McCartney was sitting behind me(didnt want to bother him for a pic)All in all,perfect night 10/10

3 hours 10 minutes?
The Hydro in Glasgow has an 11pm curfew, did the Echo have one?

Precise timing per my video timestamps was 8:25 - 11:26, so the usual 3 hours. I don't believe the Echo had a curfew, but I may be wrong.

It never really was 3 hours though, more close to 2 hours and 45 minutes. The Vienna shows were 2 hours and 45 minutes, and that was including interruption of people on stage. Krakow was 2 hours and 44 minutes, including people on stage. Copenhagen no one on stage, 2 hours and 45 minutes. Funny how he can time it pretty close, even with slightly different songs.
With the extra song for the UK leg, would say 2 hours and 50 minutes max.

Nice touch with the snow and the children seeing backup. Is it me or did he stop coloring his hair, looked a lot more grey?

You’re just now noticing this?! You must not look at the Paul McCartney Picture Thread. We’ve been going on about it for months. It started during Carpool Karaoke that he just let it go natural.

Well the times on my videos don't lie, it was 3 hours in Liverpool. Last year's MSG show with Bruce and Nassau show with Billy also both came in just under 3 hours according to my timestamps.
One thing I noticed was that in Quebec he cut the stories out almost entirely and dramatically reduced the audience banter compared to what I'm used to in NY. In Liverpool the stories and banter were all back in full force, so he seemed much more laidback and honestly I enjoyed it more. Quebec was the only show I've been to in a non-English-primary area so I don't know whether it was just tour opener jitters or whether he does cut back on the talking portions of the show in non-English places -- aside from his sometimes comical attempts at speaking the native tongue. If it's a more general thing that might explain the slightly shorter times in continental Europe.

I rarely look at any picture thread with the exception of his wife's thread. I much rather look at her - lol. Anyway, good for him he looks better.

Ah, I see he did TWO extra songs in Liverpool, he did both "encore rock rotation" songs on top of 'Wonderful Chrismastime', so then you get to 3 hours.
Yes, the reason why Copenhagen and Krakow had the same duration, while the latter had an interruption of fans on stage, was that he cut down all stories in Krakow, didn't even do the Hendrix bit (!) and that he added spontaneous crowd banter in Copenhagen.

Here's the kid, Harry Wyatt, watching himself in the video of Fuh You at the concert.

Great night,much better than 2015,he really seemed to be enjoying himself,the set list a nice selection,the band as ever in top notch form nice to see him do the three hours not often get that nowadays,would have loved to have had penny lane included but ive seen that already so it was no biggie it not being there.
Merch a little disappionting the t shirts bland for my taste so didnt bother,a rare event for me.
So quite possibly the last time i'll see him in the flesh,i hope not of course but you never know.
