    Yes! Let's hope Paul finally pulls out "Martha My Dear" to play live ..and uses all the pyrotechnics previously used in "Live and Let Die."

    I can picture it now:
    Hold your head up you silly girl BOOM!
    What have you done? BOOM! BOOM!

    :D ;)

    Now that he has announced a couple of concerts (he will play at both weekends of the Austin City Limits festival) in the US, it makes sense to speculate that he'll do a few more either before or after those. It's also reasonable to believe his new album will have been released by then, so there will probably be a few changes in the setlist.

    The fireworks might work better with Rocky Raccoon, making an epic Western tune.

    Maybe finish up that new album that was part of out ticket price last year before shredding your voice on more performances of Maybe I'm Amazed and Helter Skelter.

    Naaah... he'll save that for sometime in his 80's ala Les Paul and Chuck Berry, doing residency at a smaller venue... :cool:

    Negotiations are underway for Paul's return to Brazil in November:

    Boom!!! Paul McCartney negocia volta ao Brasil em novembro. Rolling Stones, em fevereiro

    The first rumors (back in early March) mentioned that he's planning a more-extensive-than-usual tour of South America because it will be his final visit to the region. The tour would be centered around Argentina, plus concerts at least in Uruguay and Brazil.

    Since then, the man in charge of the stadium in Montevideo said the concert in Uruguay will be in October, rumors surfaced about negotiations for concerts in Argentina in October/November, and now we have news about negotiations going on for Brazil in November.

    I doubt Paul himself will publicly announce a "final tour", but I don't doubt his tour manager told the South American promoters about it (if that is indeed Paul's plan) and one of them leaked the info, as they usually do.

    Can't wait for the Give Ireland Back To The Irish/Luck Of The Irish medley. Plus it'll provide Paul's on-call Bagpipe players with another song that they can play. They are sick of trotting out the same old Mull Of Kintyre every time that Paul needs them. ... ;)

    Wouldn't the tour name be "One To Ono"?

    Not one of your better comments, Arnold.

    First, wrong instrument. Only Uilleann pipes acceptable here in Ireland and we don’t particularly want to hear that medley either. Thank you!

    I'm glad he's still touring at all, but if it's a new tour with a dozen different songs, that will be even better!

    From today's BBC interview:

    Are you are gonna go out and tour this new album?

    Yeah.

    When?

    Well, okay, we're just planning it now. And we definitely know we're out in September, and beyond. Because you've gotta book those now, kind of thing. And I know we're playing Austin City Limits, which is in October. I think that's been announced. Or did I just announce it? That's the only thing that's been announced, yeah. So we're playing that.

    And then, before then, before August, we might just do a couple of little gigs, just because they're fun. We once played The Hundred Club, we once played The Cavern, and those little gigs, they're really nice to do.

    And it not only takes you back to where you started, but there's the intimacy in the audience, and you can have a lot of fun. And you sometimes don't feel like it's quite so precious. Because if there's 40,000 people who paid all that money, you've gotta think about pleasing them. If there's only a couple hundred, and we're all having a party, you just think, 'We can throw in 'Matchbox,' or we'll throw in an odd number that we'd only do at sound checks or something. So they're good fun for that reason.

    In the BBC Radio 2 interview he also said he wanted to play "all of it" live referring to the new album. Yeah, we'll see....
