weird that "You Won't See Me" appears on the official set list sheet (and on many set list web pages) and was NOT performed yesterday.
I guess "She Loves You" replaced it...just joking!

I saw some tv broadcasts of the Out There tour that were great. Will there be any official pro-shot video releases of the One on One Tour?
It's possible. I believe the last "official" video release of a tour was back in 2009.
Here is the setlist from opening show of the tour last night: "Matchbox," "It Don't Come Easy," "I Saw the Light" (Todd Rundgren), "Evil Ways" (Gregg Rolie), "Rosanna" (Steve Lukather), "Kyrie" (Richard Page), "Bang the Drum" (Rundgren), "Boys," "What Goes On," "Yellow Submarine," "Black Magic Woman" (Rolie), "Give More Love," "Back Off Boogaloo," "Oye Como Va" (Rolie), "I Wanna Be Your Man," "Love Is the Answer" (Rundgren), "Broken Wings" (Page), "Hold the Line" (Lukather), "Photograph," "Act Naturally," "A Little Help From My Friends"/"Give Peace a Chance."

Just looked at the Setlist from last night's Brazil show. Man, am I glad I didn't spend good money on this leg of the tour. Except for being one of the lucky ones that attended the MSG show and seeing Bruce as a special guest, Paul in my opinion is just "mailing it in" for the "real" fans of his total Catalog. Yes, he does a great show for the 1st or maybe even the 2nd timers (and very casual Beatle fans who have never seen him), but for true fans like us, it is a major disappointment in my opinion. I saw one of the comments on this show's thread pointing out that the fans last night were "treated" to hearing "Got to Get You into My Life". Was that the big addition last night? How many times/tours has he done that song since 1989. He didn't even do "Hope of Deliverance" that he sometimes had done previously for the South American/Mexico audiences.
BJ, all due respect, but I think your take is not really consistent with that of many of us going to the shows. It's not that we disagree with the larger point regarding setlists -- I'd wager the vast majority of us are in complete agreement that there are large pockets of Paul's overwhelming catalog that have been sorely neglected in his live shows, and if he were to shine even the slightest light on them we would be overcome with joy. However, as much as we might be frustrated sitting at home thinking about setlist potentials, it doesn't make much difference in our experience at the shows, which you can see from reading our accounts in the show threads. Trust me, if I was shelling out the $$ I have been for these shows and was meaningfully disappointed, you'd know about it.
I'm not remotely exaggerating or rationalizing when I say that I leave shows in a state of euphoria that takes me days/weeks to come down from. In 8 shows on the last run I didn't hear a single song (outside of soundcheck) that I hadn't heard him do before, the first time that had been the case for me, but that fact was the furthest thing from my mind during and after the shows. In fact, yes, when he did songs like Listen to What the Man Said, Got To Get You Into My Life, and Drive My Car, I *was* quite excited in the moment because I knew they hadn't gotten much play recently. Yet even that is a side point -- some of the songs in the set I've seen Paul do over 20 times, but the enjoyment never really wears off for me (though the 100+ers should speak for themselves!). I'm often surprised in the moment at how much I'm enjoying even the songs where the novelty has long worn off. In fact, I frequently find that knowing the show so well *enhances* my enjoyment, since I can excitedly anticipate what's coming, know what little things to look for or do to "participate," and can better observe the numerous differences between sets and performances, or details I may have missed before. It's frustratingly difficult to capture how it feels at Paul's shows even with the ubiquitous photos, videos, and scopes. I and others I've spoken to have noticed that our own photos and videos, as highly enjoyable as they may be to look at and watch after the fact, fail to fully capture the experience of being there -- how things really look, sound, and the energy of the crowd, band, and Paul feeding off each other, not to mention the spectacular quality of the performances and production. I have to say that if your entire view of the current shows is shaped solely by setlists and YouTube videos, I think you're both misled and missing out. This isn't to take away from the larger point that there is a lot more Paul *could* be doing to give the attention to his back catalog we all know it so richly deserves, and that doing so would greatly add to the joy we here already get from the shows while still entertaining the entire crowd more than Paul seems to realize. However, I think your assertions that the show is enjoyable only for casual fans or that Paul is in any way "mailing it in" are contradicted by much of the discussion elsewhere on this forum.

Here's "Got To Get You Into My Life" from Porto Alegre: (Love the video animation from Rock Band!)

Got To Get You Into My Life was played at MSG Sunday's show 9/17
Thanks Joyce, I can't remember what was played where after the recent NY NJ run of shows
Hi Phil...yea, Paul did a great job of "mixing it up a bit" during the recent New York area shows. I'm sure that trend will continue in S. America / Mexico. After 24 years, I'd like to know what's in store for Australia??

So you guys got the "seldom played" Got To Get You Into My Life. I believe it was only played once in the previous U.S. leg.
Danish Macca:
Was that the same reason in Horsens, Denmark? I forget now what year it was..
That was June 30 and July 1, 2012.
This show is no longer listed on Paul's schedule.

Maybe the band will do "Hitch Hike" for the people of Detroit.
they did it in 2011...
Yea...after doing it in 2010 at the Apollo in New York...good song!!
MansizeRooster:
looks like no new songs.. shame.
For the fans in Australia, they're mostly new!
Maybe the band will do "Hitch Hike" for the people of Detroit.

Looking forward to enjoying the show along with everyone, including @DrivinFan, @MaccaBassman, and the latter's student!
I think you two said you'll be at the soundcheck? I know what you look like from MetLife, so I'll try to find you and say Hi. Can't wait to see if you top last year's!
Anyone else going to be there?
I have faith in both of them, but topping last year will be hard! See you all tomorrow for the ROCK SHOW!
LOL...looking forward to seeing you tonight!!

There's no better feeling for a music teacher when you're told "Hey Mr.L I'll see you at the Paul McCartney concert Tuesday night." I'm doing something right
Great job, Mr. L!!

Be still my beating heart!! According to setlist.fm, McCartney just played Silly Love Songs! Please, please be true!!!
Didn't see Silly Love Songs listed, but he did play "A Day In The Life" after leaving it out for the 2 Brooklyn shows.
He played ADITL/GPAC at both Brooklyn shows.
You're right, Acres...sorry about that, I missed it.

...As much as I enjoyed it I still prefer the father and son team (you know who you are) who did it in NJ, I like to call them the mountain climbers.
