Paul will be performing at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Monday, the 17th and Tuesday, the 18th of December. He will be performing Wonderful Christmastime by request for the triplets. Message board moderators and their families will be given tickets somewhere between the 5th and 15th rows.....run with it, Roberto!
Now that's my kind of rumor!

When 2/3 of the set consists of 8 years of an almost 50 year long carrer something's wrong imo.
THIS! Great post!
I've always said that he could do maybe 6 songs from each decade. Someone care to whip up a setlist like that?
How's this... *Please note, I counted "Flowers in The Dirt" for the 90's since it fits more with that era of style for Paul. Also, I count Vintage Clothes---Feet in The Clouds as one song. 1. I Saw Her Standing There 2. Jet 3. The World Tonight 4. Take it Away 5. Coming Up 6. Lonely Road 7. Ever Present Past 8. Wanderlust 9. The Long and Winding Road 10.Yesterday 11.Tug of War 12.Heaven on a Sunday 13.I Do 14.This One 15. Hope of Deliverance 16.Pipes of Peace 17.Fine Line 18.Vintage Clothes 19.That Was Me 20.Feet in The Clouds 21.This Never Happened Before 22.My Brave Face 23.Listen To What The Man Said 24.Uncle Albert Admiral Halsey/ 25.Live and Let Die 26.Let it Be 27.Hey Jude ENCORE 28.No More Lonely Nights 29.Silly Love Songs 30.Get Back 31.Goodnight Tonight ENCORE 32.Beautiful Night 33.Band on The Run Personally, I would love this show. BUT, even I would like more Beatles tracks. But it is possible, to have another six beatles songs in there, and thes et would be a normal length for Paul's show. Because let's face it, just because he has 50 years of music to cover...some years were better than others!! Does anyone really believe that what he did on "Revolver" in '66 is equivalent to what he did on "Press To Play" in'86? Don't get me wrong, he needs to balance the set more but, I think Beatles songs should be more at just under 50% of the set, and not 66%...or 20% like above.
I think that setlist just needs some tweeking to adjust for his voice now. Not bad though. oh...and I need Hiway in there.

No can do...one of those dates is my birthday & he already committed to me to be in Chicago for Wonderful Christmastime!

Well, as it stands....I don't think we have any reliable rumors. The South American rumors for December were said by South American fans, to be from an unreliable source. So... We got nothing.

Right in my backyard, I love it. lol

Um, ok! THEN, on Dec. 20, Paul will play Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, and he will perform SILLY LOVE SONGS for the first time since 1976. Except he will play it THIRTY times!!!

As an encore, he will perform a set of unreleased Beatles and Wings songs and personally sign the Tour Programme of Maccaboard members (Mods first, of course ). To top it off, he will have another follow-up performance on a beautiful secret private island in the Atlantic (with pre-paid flights arranged for the attendees) and he'll make it snow in the end... Or at least that's how the rumor goes... :

So I can understand, we are starting these rumors. lol

He will give me the master tapes to the recordings of Carnival Of Light and the completed version of Now and Then, all for myself!

Nooo! Let's trade! I've just discovered these are fakes too (all the fine print is in Russian and there are no logos or even a record label)... The mafia!

Anita, that's the best rumor I've seen since 2010!!

Maybe part of the reason there are so many young people is that you have General Admission there and the older fans (like me!) would not be able to handle that chaos.
That's probably true. It's very hard having to stay in line for several hours (days, even) under the sun and the rain. In one of the concerts the promoters allowed people over 60 years old to enter the stadium before the rest. That was a bad idea, as those older fans were later crushed by the thousands of people behind them. That caused them health problems and they had to leave.
Nancy R:
Edited to add: Well, I see since I wrote this that you've been discussing "old farts" in a derogatory manner!
Not me. Please read the posts again.

So what, you just want Paul to become a stale oldies act so you can see him twice a year?
No, I would love to hear a bunch of obscure songs, as I have previously mentioned. But Paul has said in many interviews that he's always going to perform the songs he believes most people want to hear, which are his "hits". I choose not to be upset about that, since it's not my decision. I'll just enjoy the show.

I don't think a lot of us North Americans really do, and I wouldn't lump all of Europe in their either. I think its mainly the home land, but at least you can say the South Americans know respect and how to treat and talk about a legend that is for sure. Wish I could have gone to some of those shows. They looked as if they were amazing.
They were amazing indeed, but I would also love to see Paul perform live in the USA and Europe. I bet it's a different experience, and it would also be an opportunity to see new places.
