RE: Europe 2024
@boogieboy said in Europe 2024:
european tour must be announced very soon
I wouldn't be confused whether there are rumors or not. Rumors have been also small in the past, in my memory.

RE: Paul McCartney Says He Used AI to Produce a “Final” Beatles Song

@yankeefan2 said in Paul McCartney Says He Used AI to Produce a “Final” Beatles Song:
I had two thoughts on what you mentioned. When John wrote "For Paul" did he mean the song was about him and John was missing his childhood friend. Maybe the "For Paul" was in hope that John wanted Paul to hear the demo and maybe work on it one day in the future with him.
I think the song was for and about Paul. Listen to the lyrics!
This seems to be the case with the final Beatles version of the song, BUT not with the original demo by Lennon:
[Verse 1]
I know it's true
It's all because of you
And if I make it through
It's all because of you[Chorus]
And now and then (Ah-ah)
If we must start again (Ah-ah)
Well, we will know for sure
That I love you[Verse 2]
I don't wanna lose you, oh no, no
Abuse you or confuse you
Oh no, no, sweet darlin'
But if you have to go (Go), away (Ah-ah-ah)
If you have to go, well you the reason [?][Chorus]
Now (Now) and then (And then)
I miss you (I miss you)
Oh, now (Now) and then (And then)
I want you to return to me
'Til you return to me

Oh, now (Now) and then (And then)
I want you to return to me
Now (Now) and then (And then)
I miss you (I miss you)
Oh, now (Now) and then (And then)
I want you to return to me

They did performed "Everybody out there" during the concerts 2014 too. We were very happy to hear it at least at the soundcheck in Amsterdam 2015. And he did there Alligator too!
I just took a quick look at Something New. I think it was the passage (from 40min 33) that I remembered:
Abe: "This record is gonna be fun to play live... this is one of the first times we found like wow gonna be great to play at top to bottom" -
RE: Setlists
that's a very cool update of the current setlist!
I would only change:- Something to All Things Must Pass, While my guitar gently weeps, or Friends to go
- Blackbird to Martha my dear, I Will or Mother nature's son.

RE: Proposed "Nerd" Show
@yankeefan2
I understand the arguments for a deeper cuts selection of songs from the 21st century. Such a show would definitely have its charm, especially as those songs would be ennobled with it! My wife and me would certainly be one of the first to buy tickets . On the other hand, it seems rather improbable that McCartney would feel the same way, considering what he is still playing at the moment... And then there is the factor of his band that a song like "Maxwells Silver Hammer" could work very well.
Btw: I would be interested to know which songs the band have rehearsed since 2002 and havn't yet been played live. There could be some surprises. I mean to remember Abe? saying in the documentary "Something New" that they rehearsed the entire NEW album... -
RE: Proposed "Nerd" Show
What's about 5 "deeper cuts" from every decade?! I could also need a little bit time to think about a list. These are my top 5 songs I would like to hear: ballroom dancing, with a little luck, dominos, i don't know, pretty boys

RE: Setlists
Yes! I also suspect that he means something like that at best. At the end it's like Cavern Club (2018) or Pappy & Harriet's (2016) with a somewhat more daring setlist like the surpirse gig's 1991.

RE: Setlists
One of these days, he is going to put on a "nerd show" to satisfy the deep fans
hopefully it will happen before it is completely too late. He would also finally have a reason for an official new and fresh concert album.

RE: Setlists
@njr I too.
but I would like to understand it on the psycholgical level. The contradiction of McCartney's huge musical ability and the meagre variations of the setlist (regardless of how Beatles song-heavy everything is... ) + the same old stories remains a mystery to me . What happened to songs like Night Before, Another Girl or Your Mother Should Know? Other permanent live songs could easily be replaced with this songs....
