Set List critique

I'd like to know why the heck he dropped A Day in the Life. Hearing him play that was so spectacular.

Paul McCartney is definitely not the only who tells the same stories on stage over and over and over. As some of you might've heard, Dolly Parton pretty much stole the show at this year's Glastonbury Festival. I watched it -- great show. In addition to new songs, she did her signature tunes -- including "Jolene." After the song, she said that 'Jolene' was a woman who'd caught her husband's eye early in their marriage. Then Dolly joked that whenever she looks at her husband today -- old, balding, grey hair -- she wants to find Jolene so she can come and take her husband off her hands. Funny lil' story. Anyway, I just got a copy of Dolly's 2008 Live In London DVD -- from 2008 -- six years ago. And she told that exact same story. Oy. :
Still does not excuse McCartney just because Dolly and some other artists do it. I can't imagine they don't know that there are people who try and see them every time they tour and have heard the same story. Really, is it that hard for McCartney to say something different about George Harrison in his tribute.This is his old friend and he can't just say something about him every night without it be scripted - lol.

Bet it shocked McCartney that they voted for that song instead of a Beatle tune - lol

Now I am curious about what song a US crowd would pick if they had a vote.

Not sure, but I've got a feeling (ha, see what I did there!) that Americans would vote for a Beatles song.

oh yes...Americans in general may do that but I meant more like voting by fans...someone that hangs out here.

Sad but true and only because he does plenty of them and not really many left that would not have been played live before.

Wasn't sanctioned by Paul. I think some radio station or website over there.

Wouldn't it be something if Paul pulled out She's A Woman, Long Tall Sally, Help or Hard Day's Night at Candlestick Park tonight? Prediction - none of those songs will be played...will be same old set list with perhaps the predictable switch out of I Saw Her Standing There for Get Back :-(. Would love to be proven wrong though

I said somewhere else it would be epic if he opened with Long Tall Sally tonight, since that was the last song played there by the Beatles in 1966.

Four extra minutes added to "Hey Jude".

I would love to see Long Tall Sally as an opener. It would seem fit for an encore opener or closer, but I think he could make it work as a setlist opener.
-
Candlestick should be extra-awesome. I think he should go big and open with "I Saw Her Standing There" or "A Hard Day's Night."

SF perfect time to pull out EARLY DAYS!! What do you think?
