Just a note, tomorrow is supposedly going to be one of the hottest days of the year. So if anyone is thinking of standing in a queue for 10-odd hours, make sure you keep hydrated.
And use sunscreen!

Roll on Friday LIPA graduation and then December
How did one get a seat for this Q&A? Does your son go to LIPA?
I've got very good friends who look after me
no he's at Uni in Liverpool but not Lipa

LIPA set list from The Daily Beatle:
- I’ve Just Seen A Face
- San Francisco Bay Blues
- Every Night
- From Me To You
- Mrs Vanderbilt
- On My Way To Work
- Love Me Do
- Confidante (from the new album)
- I Lost My Little Girl
- Midnight Special
- An unfinished song about Blackpool, Southport and Scunthorpe
- We Can Work It Out.
I like this, a little bit different. He did "On My Way To Work" which I don't think he did live more than once before this time. Seems like he likes "Confidante" from the new album, maybe the next single? If he said it was Nancy's favorite from the new album then it is a keeper on the set list - lol. "Mrs Vanderblit" was a big crowd favorite for years and think it has been awhile since he played it. I also am glad he did "From Me To You" and "Every Night", two of my favorites. I still wish in "secret" shows he would throw in a song or two from his solo career that he has never done live. For example, "Little Willow" of "Early Days" would have been wonderful addition at this type of show IMO.

He really played "From Me To You?"
He did. He also told us that Mrs Vanderbilt is the favourite Wings song in the Ukraine
Yes, they voted that song in a few years ago. How was his new song Confidante? Did you guys happen to tape anything? We are all waiting to hear Paul's new album.
Confidante is fantastic he told us that it's Nancy's favourite off the Album. My son taped about 30 seconds of I've just seen a face. Not sure if anyone else taped it was a really intimate gig with about 4 to 500 people there.
Is "Confidante a upbeat song? Reading your post and I thought maybe it is the next single to be released from the album. Must be incredible seeing someone like McCartney in that intimate setting, glad you had great time !!

I live in Liverpool and went to LIPA today but couldn't get in so I stood outside for 4 hours to see if I could see him afterwards but I just got sunburned lol (on the upside I'll have a nice tan next week). Missed out on Echo Arena tickets for December so I'm really hoping to see him tomorrow but I don't know what time the gig is. Does anyone have any clues?

Argh that sounds so so so fab!!!!!!! Gutted i can't be there. I was in Liverpool yesterday! But i don't have any photo ID anyway, so i guess even if i was first in the queue i wouldn't be able to go. Boooooooo! I need to get some photo ID, don't go abroad and don't drive so no passport or driving license so don't have any!
Good luck to all who queued, it's so great he's doing this

Agree 100% Yankeefan...at least he is on the right track with some of these selections.
From a Beatle perspective, "From Me To You" would be a nice addition on the upcoming true tour. And how about PS I Love You and Martha My Dear...songs he's never done before.
Early Beatles....I know he does "I Love My Little Girl" from a history perspective but it is only half a song (sounds like a song a 14 year old boy would write) and he has done it before. From a history perspective, how about "World Without Love" the first song written by one of the Beatles (solely Paul) given to another artist (Peter and Gordon) that went #1 all around the World including the US and England. Now that would be a history lesson! I would love to hear Paul's version. But that would take some practice and rehearsal with the Band and that is something that Paul doesn't seem to want to do.
From a 70's perspective, Every Night and Mrs. Vanderbilt are good choices. But there are plenty of choices for 70's songs he has never done or rarely done before (Single Pigeon, Love in Song, Getting Closer, With a Little Luck etc. etc.)
From a 80's and beyond perspective ...the only Paul penned song he did was "On My Way to Work". That's a travesty! Again, there are so many from which to choose (songs that he has never done before). It shows ether his lack of memory or more realistic, his drive to do some serious rehearsal time with his band. Old classics like San Francisco Bay Blues and Midnight Special are known by all older musicians that Paul and his Band can do in their sleep.
I understand that Paul has just thrown these "secret gigs" for promotion for the "New Egypt" album but why he hasn't spent a little rehearsal time over the last few months to have an even more "creative and fresh" song list (for even these "secret gigs") just baffles me. Just some of the songs we have suggested in the other Maccaboard threads would really excite the "real and true" fans.

Just to clarify - there isn't a separate chart for England; it was #1 in Britain.
