This was the setlist at his last show. Question is, at what point would you be taps aff?

At the first ‘hard’.

To say that’s considered a “weaker” set list for McCartney, Jesus Christ. No one else on the planet could put together a 38 song setlist like that.

May have already been discussed, but what do we think the chances are there is less Wings/Solo stuff and more Beatles?

im excited to see him, but from songs 2 - 21 there’s a lot in there that doesn’t get me going…

I hope you're right. He has plenty of good songs from his Solo/Wings career, but i'm sure we can do without such filler as Dance Tonight, Let 'em In, and Queenie Eye

I haven't got it, it isn't in my pocket
O-U-T spells out
That's out"

 

Wow, truly the greatest songwriter of our time!

Don’t you worship the guy who wrote Stagger Lee?

I think the ratio will be similar tbh. Egypt Station might drop off completely and maybe you get a couple extra Beatles tunes there, but probably around 10 of the solo/Wings stuff are staples at this point.

[Avalon_Fields]

I’m ok with plenty of post-Beatles songs, it’s a bit more authentic for him to play his own stuff solo/Wings as well as the band he used to be in, it shouldn’t be just a Beatles tribute act. There’s plenty of sub-standard albums he needs to completely ignore nevertheless.

You can debate that on your way to London 😉

That's from an old playground game and rhyme, he didn't write it. I'd presumed everyone knew that but it's probably an age thing.

It's also a callback to one of The Beatles Xmas Records.

Well you've got 50% of Oasis beforehand. Some would suggest more...

There has never been a party involving Scott McLeod.
