Yeap. What is really funny is, that on the Macca board quite often The Rolling Stones are mentioned as an example of a band which mixes it up every night..."he should look at The Stones how to do a setlist!"

A little history, far from complete, of what Paul has added each year in the last decade:
2017 & 2018: He's kind of been resting on all those since and not really added anything new of note. Really just From Me To You and Let Em In and the added horn section.
Yes, that list is besides the obligatory new songs he adds to each tour when he has a new album.Quote

He added 3 brand new songs!

McCartney is fantastic with using his entire catalog. I cant think of a song I really want to hear that he hadnt played yet

Not sure I'm reading your post correctly RollingFreak, but he did play Why Don't We Do it in the Road at both Desert Trips with Neil Young.

You're absolutely right, and actually I remembered that. My bad. So yeah, the only Beatles Paul led song I can think that he's never revisited is Oh Darling, which is pretty damn good. Its actually incredible.
I forgot how @#$%& awesome that was when Paul and Neil did that song:

I think he did this one as part of a medley with "Love Me Do" on the Flowers In The Dirt tour (might have been a one-off)...very different '80s-style arrangement, if I recall.

He did but its a little too different to truly qualify as playing that song. Especially now that he's doing the original Love Me Do, I'd basically pretend that PS Love Me Do never actually happened lol.

Really? I think he does a fantastic job but I can certainly think of tons I'd love to hear. Admittedly I'll give you he's done really well with the Beatles stuff and has basically played almost every song he sings lead on at least once:
Oh Darling
Why Don't We Do It In The Road
Solo material there's a ton he never touches:
Smile Away
Uncle Admiral Halsey
Back Seat Of My Car
Eat At Home
The Mess
No Words
Helen Wheels
Call Me Back Again
Beware My Love
Again, all things considered its a relatively short list which is insanely impressive, but I could still think of things I'd LOVE to hear.

Paul McCartney was absolutely blistering in Glasgow last night. One of the best performances I've ever saw from anyone and I wouldn't even describe myself as a huge fan. Really just went to strike him from my bucket-list but so, so glad I got a ticket.
