From reading some of the fan reviews he reportedly played "Freedom" and "Live and Let Die" back to back. He also came running out holding up an American flag during one of his encores.

I saw him during his last tour 12 years or so ago. He's a class act.

When Paul comes to Philly, I will be there.
I saw him the last time he was in town, 1990(?) and from this review, it sounds like the same concert. Which is fantastic as far as I'm concerned. I am glad he isn't at all bashful about doing Lennon stuff. I don't expect him to do 'I Am The Walrus' or 'Cold Turkey', but I will be very interested to hear him sing (the obvious Lennon lines):
I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved.
Man, I was mean but I'm changing my scene
And I'm doing the best the I can.
- (from 'Getting Better')
One thing is absolutely for sure - - with Paul McCartney, you get your money's worth.

Paul was the best Beatles songwriter. If Lennon were around today, he'd be pushing anti-American "remote control airliners" theories.

. . but his energy was infectious. It always was.
It always will be.

Bump for me! I'm going to see McCartney tonight, in what could be his final NYC concert!
And I got tickets to the pre-concert party in The Forum beforehand. I rock.
