    Shame it's not live but have to take whats given you I suppose. 

    One of my favourite Beatles songs from one of their best albums. Got to get you into my life. 
    A song about cocaine.

    Does a single active singer have such a large selection of songs to choose from for a gig than Paul McCartney? Especially ones that would have every word sung. 
    Well I’ve only known Can’t buy me love so far. 
    You're just waiting for the Frog Chorus to come on
    Said that to my wife about 15 mins ago!

    Got to give it to the bloke.
    Without doubt the greatest sing writer in history and I can only hope I'm half as fit as him at 80

    Watching on bbc 1. 

    Sad to see Macca relegated to a backing singer. 

    How low have they turned his mic down !  
    Low enough. He sounds better than the last time I heard him, which was a bit painful.
    He sounds decent tbf.
    Bloody hell did anyone hear Shaun Ryder/Happy Mondays at I of W last week? 
    He was talking/shouting and I was genuinely concerned he was going to have a heart attack.

    Macca doesn’t sound as pitiful as I feared mainly due to his mike being so low in the mix and his band doing the heavy lifting. But such an obscure set list on the whole when you think what he could be playing. It’s his regular set list so far for this tour (no spoilers). You’d think for a Glasto sort of thing it would be wall to wall greatest hits.

    Most artists save the best for the second half.

    These setlists are always the same. 

    First half is basically the artists favourites, then the second half has the crowd songs.

    It’s difficult to be critical of an 80 year old and particularly one of The Beatles but Macca is showing his age here.

    Having said that, I doubt I’ll make 80 so who am I to judge!

    1985
    Maybe I'm Amazed

    So the old geezers don't forget where they are & start playing something else halfway through.

    Absolute snore fest from Noel Gallagher before he reached the Oasis songs 
    Nah.
    High Mountain is a top tune.
    I’d go to watch him just for that.

    Holy Mountain

    I’m wishing I loved Sir Paul more than I do.
    But I did like the one he wrote for his latest squeeze.
    Are we gonna get Mull?
