The Rarest Paul Song You Seen/Heard Him Perform Live
-
I went to the Syracuse show last night and was bummed about no Women & Wives, one of the Fenway shows will probably get it. We shall see, but that one will wind up being very rare it seems.
I didn't know what to call rare from my list of songs, so I didn't include anything that was played on a tour leg (Like Come and Get It) also I don't do soundchecks so I don't have any sound check songs.

When I started this thread, I should have put what the criteria is. You have said what I should have---rare means-not part of a soundcheck or a tour set list, no matter how short the tour is. Unfortunately, Women and Wives seems like it will make the list. That is a great list! Fantastic to have heard all those payed live. I saw him do Mull of Kintyre on August 8, 2010 and looks like you were there as well unless you saw him on the 9th. You may have been at both.

Thank you, I have been fortunate I guess. I was at both Toronto show in 2010

For me it's been:
- Mull of Kintyre x3. I wasn't able to travel internationally and everytime he did it abroad and not in the US, I was gutted. Finally got to see it in Toronto and went again to Vancouver for it.
- Tequila! in Nashville 2010. I know he did it at a Hard Rock Calling in London. Not sure of another live, non-soundcheck, performance. When the rift started I could have sworn it was Brown Eyed Handsome Man.
- Ram On in London 2015. He obliged a couple of us in the audience. I've since tried to get him to do it without success. In the second Boston show this year I made a sign and we had a little visual back and forth, but ultimately he passed. Thankfully I'd hear it earlier that day in soundcheck from outside the venue.
- Hope of Deliverance 2012 - rare in that he hasn't done it much in the post 2000 touring era and when he has it outside of soundcheck, it's only been in Latin America - with the exception of a sole Florida show.

For me it was "I'll Get You" and "Please Please Me" on the 2005 US Tour. That whole show was full of surprises!
Some other rarities that come to mind were "Another Day" and "Good Rockin' Tonight" at the New World Tour concert in '93, and "Venus and Mars/Rock Show" at the Hollywood Bowl in 2010.
But i guess by your "criteria" the only real rarity was Venus and Mars/Rock Show in 2010.

Paul just did Oh Darling with Chrissie Hynde at the Tribute Concert for Taylor Hawkins on 9-3-22.

Definitely a live rarity, I think the one and only live time fr that one.

Yes, 1st time ever. I think he said 1st time in a hundred years! lol

As of Saturday night, I can state it must be Oh! Darling.
It has some competition from Temporary Secretary - I was there at both 02 concerts in 2015 when he debuted it live.

I just listened to P.S Love Me Do for the first time and I have to say it's really cool. I doubt he would do that type of thing now.
Thank you for sharing.
