Paul McCartney NOLA Roll Call

Me and the Boat are IN

In with the Mrs.!!!

Ridiculous set list.. never thought I’d ever hear Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite live. Really brought the house down at the end with Helter Skelter and Golden Slumbers/Carry that Weight/The End

think about this

paul mccartney is 76 years old.

he and his band played 35+ songs over 2 hrs & 45 minutes without taking a break except for the encore. paul played bass, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, mandolin, ukelele, grand piano & upright piano. the show had explosions, pyrotechnics, an elevating stage, a dancing drummer, tributes to both george & john, songs from the quarrymen, the beatles and mccartney's solo career, a 10,000 person sing-a-long, stories about jimi hendrix, russia and beatles' recordings, and frequent and sincere acknowledgement of the fans

i dont know what else anyone could want

the show:

"A Hard Day's Night"
"Junior's Farm"
"Can't Buy Me Love"
"Letting Go"
"Who Cares"
"Got to Get You Into My Life"
"Come On to Me"
"Let Me Roll It"
"I've Got a Feeling"
"Let 'Em In"
"My Valentine"
"Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five"
"Maybe I'm Amazed"
"I've Just Seen a Face"
"In Spite of All the Danger"
"From Me to You"
"Dance Tonight"
"Love Me Do"
"Blackbird"
"Here Today"
"Queenie Eye"
"Lady Madonna"
"Eleanor Rigby"
"Fuh You"
"Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!"
"Something"
"Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da"
"Band on the Run"
"Back in the U.S.S.R."
"Let It Be"
"Live and Let Die"
"Hey Jude"

Encore:
"Birthday"
"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)"
"Helter Skelter"
"Golden Slumbers"
"Carry That Weight"
"The End"

I'm glad to see he is still well enough to perform. I watched the karaoke show he did on YouTube a couple years back and he looked like he was getting a little frail but he still sounded pretty good when he performed at that bar. Should be a good show.

You forgot the roving horn section.

Probably as good a show as I’ve seen. 76 y/o and he’s still got it. Wow!!

1) I’d never gotten the chance to see him before and 2) just because his setlist is comprised of some of the same songs every time, doesn’t mean it’s still not a really good set list, you douche.
