I was lovin it - then had to duck out for a massive shite - then heard live and let die in my turdis - and came storming out looking like a tramp.

Putin has done a lot of bad but ensuring Back in the U.S.S.R. won’t get played at Glastonbury may be worst of all.

Yep I was there in 04 too. I even put up with the whole black eyed peas sub performance just to get near the front.  They were awful.

I'm obsessed, please sign to ask Sir Paul play some 80s

Peace

Yeah. And while his voice is understandably weaker, the band and especially the production values are sky high in comparison. 

[Yokel Again]

Was there in 2004, and can't wait to be there again. This time with the kids. 🙂

Very happy to see No More Lonely Nights on the last setlist.  Always liked that one.

Alas, I think it was just the play-out music. Absolute banger though.

Yes, watched from the back and hearing all the Na-na-na’s was quite something to behold!

[Pinhead]

Quality. Looking forward to that again this year. Will be a 'moment' I'm sure...

Hey Jude is very much one of those songs that I’ll actively avoid ever having to listen to if I can help it as it’s just so overplayed, but I’ve had the Macca setlist playlist on a fair bit lately so have temporarily given in to my avoidance and just imagining the finale belted out across the Pyramid field and me being in the crowd gives me goosebumps every time it’s on. I look forward to not listening to it again for a long time (maybe except set replays on the BBC..) but for now, those na-na-na’s are pure heaven to me. Can’t bloody wait for this, finally! 

[Pinhead]

I get this feelin too, but I kind of know I'll never hear it live like that again in my lifetime I expect, so I want a good one for the memory bank.

It's one of my favourite Beatles songs and it's over-played the same way that Stairway To Heaven is i.e. not that much these day.

He was very good. He spoke warmly about John and George. Hope he's as good for you guys.

I wasn't around when Stairway was out and my old man wasn't big on Zep so it's not overplayed for me. 

I can take or leave Hey Jude but I'll be singing along very loudly in 9 days.

Imagine having written Eleanor Rigby, Penny Lane, The Long and Winding Road, Yesterday, The Fool On The Hill, For No One, Paperback Writer, Drive My Car and many countless others I’m missing…and having no place for them on your current tour?

This guy is pretty good, I reckon.

Although now that you’ve mentioned all those songs it just makes me think of how good the set would be if he did play them.

I can understand him wanting to play newer material, but you're right. He used to rotate his songs fairly regularly on various tours, but it seems, with a few exceptions fairly static. I wish he'd try other non-Beatles songs too - the likes of Junior's Farm, Let Me Roll It are always in, seemingly. Would love to see him do maybe something different like Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey.

But it's nit-picking. It'll be amazing whatever.
