Is this a Running joke ? Or was Appreciate really rehearsed ? Please confirm?
I think rehearsed is probably poor word choice. It sounds like Paul has that stupid tissue box guiar with him and they're screwing around on "Appreciate" for the soundcheckers.
Bo Diddley helped shape the sound of rock & roll with that type of instrument. I wouldn't dismiss it so cavalierly.

Thanks Audi, I was going to say it's hardly a stupid guitar!

I loved my first arena concert, and Paul mentioned that it was very cool for him as well. In fact, we all felt very close to him, as there were less than 10,000 people inside. I'll be at the soundcheck today and at the second concert tonight. Then I'm off to Peru tomorrow morning. I have been meting quite a few people from message boards (including this one) at the concerts. Some were prearranged, while others recognized me by my avatar. They have even told me I'm famous, can you believe that? And by the way, I was not joking when I said that "Appreciate" was rehearsed yesterday afternoon. It was heard by several friends of mine and they said it sounded great One more thing: the arena has free wi-fi, so I posted a few pictures live last night. Here is the link to my instagram account: http://instagram.com/carloshachem I'll try and do the same tonight. Here is one that I believe you will like. It was taken during "Blackbird", with my cell phone. I was in Row 11 center, and it felt like I could almost touch him as he waved at me:

One of the local newspapers published today the setlist of the rehearsal from yesterday, which was watched by students from a music school, and according to it, before "C Moon" Paul played "Martha My Dear". I'm not sure whether it was just the intro or the full song, though.

On his day off on Monday, apparently Paul and Nancy went bicycling around Santiago. Wouldn't it be a hoot to run into Paul cycling by?

Oh, man! If he played "Martha My Dear," that's awesome! If there was a Beatles song that needs to be added to his current setlist, this is definitely one that should be!

Night 2: as expected 'Eight Days A Week' back as opener. 'Save Us' etc.
-
Oh man, if Paul played "Martha My Dear" I would die a very happy fan. Patiently waiting for the Lincoln and KC stops. "1985" and "Martha" on the same night? Please please me.
-
Id love Paul to fiddle around on the piano with some white album...some kind of "Martha My Dear" / "Honey Pie" combo would be cool. I'll stop there because I dont wanna start thinking of more White Album songs Id love to hear from Paul...

Second night in Chile exactly as the concert in Uruguay minus "One after 909". Great show!
