As you all know, Brian is my guy, but it's gonna be a while before he lives down that whole "minty fresh" overstatement.
He's NEVER going to live that down
what was it : ops:
A few years back (I forget which tour it was before. The Up and Coming one I think) Brian tweeted that this tour was going to be 'minty fresh'. Which of course got everyone really excited. I mean if one of the members of Pauls band said it it MUST be true! Well it wasn't true He rolled our 3 or 4 new songs and the rest was same old setlist we've been seeing since 2002. Which has led to the standing joke of folks on the forum wondering if Paul's next gig is going to be 'minty fresh' whenever he announces a show or tour...which, of course, it never is

Seriously though the guys need to bang their heads together and think we've been playing these tunes since the year dot, what about if we added in etc.. Won't be getting hopes up for the 24th :

It wasn't a few years back! It was just last year! I know because I've only been on this forum a year and I read it here. I believe he was talking about the U.S. portion of the tour last summer.

Yep, it was last year. Minty Fresh. Yeah, right. Like in a if-you-drank-Darth's-bong-water kinda' way.

I don't care about minty fresh. I want some tarter control in my tours.

So far...not gettin' any whiffs of "mint" in the air.
Ya' know, if Paul read this, he'd say: "You want a whiff, mate? Well, get a WHIFF of THIS!" (you can imagine the rest)

Does it involve kissing his bottom?

You're pretty much on track.

And I'm guessing the word "bottom" would be replaced by a harsher word, and that he wouldn't be using the album title in a fun, whimsical way.

I wish the fans in South America and elsewhere would stay away from Paul's hotel.

Why? Paul himself enjoys that, he even has videos and pictures of those crowds posted on his official website.

True. He even called it "Maccamania" at the site. But I can see 5th-beatle's concern, though.

That's like with his wedding too. Some people wanted it to be private & for fans to stay away. Same with by his hotel. I think if people (fans) didn't show up his feelings would be hurt. He's so used to this stuff by now, what difference does it make. Unless they get unruley of course...then throw the book at em but I think he likes the fans.

5th Beatle isn't the one with concern. It is me. I don't think fans should have been around Paul's wedding either. When Paul is having his wedding, that should be private. When Paul is at the venue that is public time. Away from the venue, it's private time. That is my opinion.

I think he would be very hurt if his fans didn't show up for him.

What's the deal with new avatars not showing up on here?

I agree with you. I've been pretty outspoken about his private time versus public appearances, and the ride to and from the hotel prior to a gig is part of the show. Paul wouldn't have his vehicle window down with a video device in his hands if he hated the attention. Even with his wedding to Nancy, he was loving the fans being there. He posed, waved, etc. He didn't run to his vehicle or into the building. He was grinning from ear to ear the whole time. He didn't exactly try to hide the wedding date, either. When he's on vacation, etc., that's a WHOLE different story, mind you.
