-
At least many more fans will be able to enjoy Temporary Secretary live in October.

That's if it stays in the setlist... which I'm hoping it does!

My prediction: he will keep it and play a song from the Tug Of War album as well.

Yeah...you didn't get to hear it at Lolla...shame he dropped it at that venue. Totally would have been the crowd for it.

From Uncut Magazine, October 2015:
"[McCartney] talks enthusiastically about his desire to perform a show where he is unshackled from playing "Hey Jude" and the big hits, and can instead focus on the lesser-known tracks from his catalogue."
HA! We'll see...one thing we know is it certainly won't be happening this fall...
Elvis Presley tried that once: opening night Las Vegas 1974. To his ears and thinking the general reception was underwhelming. The next night he was back to the stock standard audience pleasing numbers. Like Elvis, Paul's a populist - not a brave artist (at least on stage).

Might be a great opportunity for Take It Away, don't ya think? -Rubber Soul13

I can see it already. He'd have to read the prompter for the entire show. He already relies on it for songs like Ob-La-Di...which he's been singing since 2009! He wouldn't just be glancing at it. He'd have to be glued to it!

It'd be a great opportunity for so many songs yep. But he also spoke about performing New in it's entirety and doing an all Fireman show too. He rattles these ideas off from time to time usually when he has something to push. Some ideas come to fruition, but many do not. That's Paul.

Not brave NOR very confident in his own work.

I could see him sticking in Take It Away for the October concerts though. I think it's a great concert number (and one that many on the board have mentioned as well) and would coincide nicely with his re-release of Tug of War. -Rubber Soul13

I'm sooooo glad that I'm not standing right now....

The set list will be the same. It is still the OUT THERE tour.

Right, but there have been some variations here and there on the setlist over the last couple of years, though.

Yeah, Another Girl is a good example. But Take It Away?? I'd be shocked.

I wouldn't expect many changes till at the very least...next year.

Look at the "changes" we picked up for this most recent addition to the Out There tour. Temporary Secretary Can't Buy Me Love One After 909 Got To Get You Into My Life ...am I missing any? I wouldn't expect any more changes than we just saw. Maybe 2-3 song changes and I will be in complete shock if he plays anything from Tug of War or Pipes of Peace (other than Here Today). With the exception of the Band on The Run Reissue he has literally made NO mention of ANY of the archive releases on stage.

You're probably right. I'd LOVE to see Wanderlust or Ballroom Dancing, but it ain't gonna happen, I fear.

Edit to my original post: Forgot "Another Girl" ! I think "Ballroom Dancing" would be a very odd choice for an arena concert. I don't really see the crowds getting into it. "Wanderlust" on the otherhand, would probably get a better response than say "My Valentine" has been though.

He also played Good Day Sunshine at the Norway/Sweden gigs in July, and Birthday has been added in on a few occasions. I agree its a perfect opportunity to do a song from the reissues, if Paul can learn and perform Temporary Secretary, then anything is possible!.

Would kill to hear 'The Pound is Sinking' in concert once TOW reissue comes out. It would go over well I would think, with all the tempo changes
