Sir Paul performs an outdoor concert in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada for 60,000.

I found this kinda interesting...

I found the Halifax setlist.

Since it's likely what he will play this whole tour, I'm hiding it under spoiler for people going to Citifield or other shows that would rather be surprised.

Awesome! I couldn't find the setlist last night.

Sigh. I wish I was in Halifax this weekend...

On a related note, Paul will be on the Letterman show this Wed. (7/15).

Paul McCartney Makes His First Visit To The Late Show
Wednesday, July 15th


The legendary musician, who, as part of The Beatles, made his U.S. television debut at the Ed Sullivan Theater on "The Ed Sullivan Show" 45 years ago, returns to that very stage to sit down for an interview with Dave. McCartney will also perform later in the broadcast.

If memory serves me right, he did a couple of shows in the Ed Sullivan Theatre which were specifically taped for an MTV series, "Up Close," in late 1992, just before Letterman took it over. So this would be McCartney's first time in that building in 17 years.

Hi all:

...Just curious...did not get to view these videos just yet...is the amazing Abe Laboriel, Jr. on drums for McCartney during this 2009 tour?
Boy, do I hope so. I love his playing!

Fingers crossed!

Ok I'll respond to my own post. Yep. Sure looks like Abe Laboriel, Jr. is there on drums!

Basically....I'm a fan. These shows will be great.

I still say it "Hafilax," quoting Mama Cass at the end of the Mamas & the Papas' version of Dancing in the Street, making fun of Denny Doherty's hometown.

40 years later, 67 years old and he's still playing all those songs in the original keys. Amazing.
