Is the rest of Macca's body going on tour or just his back? :P

Paulie freshened up the set list:

V&M, Rockshow
1985
I'm looking through you
Everynight
OBD, OBD
Letting go
Two of us

I just picked up a couple of tickets to his Glasgow show - never been to Scotland, really looking forward to this one!

My thoughts exactly. Although he did Everynight on the last tour. He's finally pulled out some great old tunes. Good for you, Paul!

Maybe it was 2002. I've seen multiple shows on each tour. They are all starting to run together. Maybe it was on the back in the US Tour.

I met Denny Laine a few weeks ago and he said that Paul was considering that shortly after Linda passed but then decided that it wouldn't be right without her...

I guess we should be happy to hear him in any capacity. It's easy to wish for things that COULD be. Instead of looking at what we do have. For example.. everyone here would LOVE to see Paul break out the 4001S on tour, but i'm guilty of having this thought overlook the fact that we're still seeing rock royalty Rick or no Rick

I'm glad he's playing all these Wings songs. The typical Beatles material needed a rest.

Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five was a shock and opening with Venus & Mars/Rock Show was great too. Too bad Rock Show got cut for Jet. Pffft. Letting Go was kind of a random one to pick. The youtube vids I saw didn't have much of a cheer when that one ended. I guess nobody knew it!

Heading over to Scotland tomorrow, catch the show in Glasgow on Sunday! Hoping he does Mull... V&M and Letting Go will bring we right back to 76 in MSG. Always wanted to see him in the UK, this is going to be sooo cool! 8)

Sounds like a great trip, Andy. I would think there's a very good chance of hearing M o K. I remember reading how he saves it for "appropriate venues." Sunday's would appear to meet that criterion...enjoy!

This is an interesting article about concert ticket prices with a McCartney image. I didn't realize that his concert tickets were so expensive:
