"Out There" 2013 Setlist Critique and Suggestions
-
Oh I'm hoping for Hope of Deliverance.... also wish to hear Sun is Shining, Celebration, Tequilla, anything from the sound check, that we never get to hear!! Couldn't afford it again this year and could have had 3rd row!!
But am going to Italy where I'll need binoculars, but it will be awesome to be in an arena under the stars listening to my favourite musician ever, with a good friend of mine!!! Just heard Tom Petty doing a night at the Beacon Theater. He had a thread asking for requests, and then he played 3 of the 5 songs I requested!!! It was so exciting
Songs that I had never thought I would hear him ever perform!!! Covers even!!! Such as Willin by Lowell George from Little Feat!!! (I asked for that one) The true fans WENT WILD with happiness... He only played about 3 of his hits the whole show. Probably the best show I've been to in a long time!! It was a smaller venue and probably wouldn't work in a stadium setting. Elvis Costello is another one with his Spin the Wheel tour. Love that every night is a different show!! So cool...

Paul has blatantly said time after time that he stops playing a song when him and the band are tired of it, and they keep a song in the set because they love playing it. Then, there are the elite few that are "untouchable"...Hey Jude...Let it be...yesterday...band on the run...live and let die I love talking about the setlist but everyone on here gets hung up on the same damn "issue" over and over again on here.
:
They got tired of playing HOPE OF DELIVERANCE after four shows? Sounds weird to me, but if that's their choice, they got tired of it, ok. Aren't they tired of LET ME ROLL IT yet? That wasn't even a hit.
They may have gotten tired of seeing crowd reactions that were less than the rest of the set, when he has Beatles songs that can keep the reactions at the concert high. Obviously Paul REALLY likes "Let Me Roll It"...and I'm glad he does!

I've seen him do it eight times. Would love to see him do it in Albuquerque. If not, I am quite ok never seeing him do it again.

Hey? Just thought I'd get this thread ready for tomorrow? Saving Martin some sweat on creating the thread. We have one confirmed song that was played tonight at the rehearsal, and the platform is right in the same spot as the rehearsal photos. The confirmed song is "Let 'Em In" Just 24 hours and counting....
I will be very interested reading the reviews of McCartney's concerts at the Barclay Center in Brooklyn NY. The NY media has seen McCartney quite a bit the last few years so I wonder what they may say about set list for this tour.

NY LOVES Paul. After 9-11 concert and 12-12-12, they wouldn't dare diss Paul. They don't they love him. I get the scoop. My cousin is a NY Times writer.

Hardly objective though is it? a writer should write about whats new,not whats passed and great the good that was done it should be about whats there on the night warts and all.

Excellent points, the review should be about the performance that night. The reason I mentioned the set list is because NY media has seen McCartney a bunch the last 10-15 years. They are not like other cities who have never seen him or it has been 20 years so they think something like "Here Today" is something new - lol. I am just wondering if they think the set list for this tour is "minty" fresh and if they like the new song selections.

they are talking about the Brooklyn, NY concerts which are happening this weekend. Looks like Paul zipped into Vienna, yes, but he has to be back in NYC by Saturday.

He just made a lightning trip to Vienna. Stayed long enough to say Goodnight Vienna...

Funny, I'm having an exhibit of Linda's photos tomorrow. And as long as he's in Brooklyn anyway, he can drop by.

I don't believe for one second that McCartney drops songs because they aren't classics with staying power, I think that's a complete and total fabrication and not true at all! McCartney drops songs simply because he doesn't want to perform them anymore, it's just that simple, he may decide to perform a song again but it's totally up to his descretion. If he thought a song wasn't classic and didn't have staying power, he probably wouldn't perform it in the first place. McCartney just wants to do something different that's all. Sometimes I think people try and pass off their personal feelings about some songs onto McCartney.
Just my opinion, but having seen Paul perform in Brooklyn both nights, I have a feeling "All Together Now" may not last the duration of the tour. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed it, however the remarks made by Paul following the song both nights "not one of my most intellectual tunes" may be a clue. I guess we'll see as we continue "Out There".

Doesn't matter. It's still a Beatles' classic from the Yellow Submarine Blu-ray released last year. It's also a "deep cut" and the press is loving this tour. I bet he'll keep it in for a while.
