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.

Woah. Thanks for mentioning. Insecure McCartney again ay...

This set list in OUT THERE tour is great but for my opinion missing some song which he always play : 1.Jet 2.A day in the life + Give peace of chance 3. Dance tonight
-
Yeah, I always like Dance Tonight & it gave Abe a chance to "show off" his dancing skills!
It's a fun sing along song.
-
I'm kinda happy that "dance tonight" is gone. It was losing the magic if you've seen the routine more than twice which I fully admit, is a problem that only the buyer is responsible for.
But I am REALLY gonna miss "Jet". I do not approve of that removal.
-
I totally agree with you, WixRocks!, really think "Jet" was one of the best songs in Paul's set list and such a fantastic live song, always had everyone singing along. I'm kind of surprised he's taken it out to be honest, since the crowd always enjoy it so much but maybe he just felt it's been in there too long.
