Someone posted awhile back a typical McCartney setlist.
Was that in this thread?

I don't think I'm familiar with his non-Beattles stuff and I want to get a feel for what he plays.
That said, I probably know his songs and just don't realize it.

You can find some recent setlists here: www.setlist.fm/setlists/paul-mccartney-13d6bd15.html

Couldn't wait to get home to check it so I had to ask here, lol.

Never to early. That's really just enough to keep me away this year, honestly.

Hope its fun and I hope you guys love it.

Garageland, do you outright dislike the Beatles or just think they're overrated? I can't find the original discussion.

Macca: I want to believe.

I realize he is huge, but would his music style be more of a Sunday closer?

Easy pal, he's no WSP.

There's no way Macca isn't Saturday.

No, he takes .001 seconds off in between songs, like many bands from that era. Part of the reason he's so awesome.

[glennron]

Honestly hearing him tell stories about how he's using the same guitar for Yesterday as he did on the Ed Sullivan show and how he was basically sh*tting his pants leading up to the performance make seeing him worth it. Then you just get a bonus 2.5-3 hours of excellent music.

No.

Sunday closers are designed to be acts that a portion of the fest want to see but the rest of the crowd have no problem missing.

They will put less popular/big acts on Sunday night because a lot of people have to/want to leave on Sunday before night time.

Paul is too big of a draw to put on Sunday night.

At first I was actually like "meh" at this announcement.

Then I saw the setlist, and am now ridiculously excited!
I didn't realize how much of his stuff I love, and of course all the Beatles stuff!

[Roo'adelphia]

Mumford into Macca on Saturday!

[hummers2187]

I'm thinking Fleetwood Mac in Macca on Saturday and Mumford into Tom Petty on Sunday

That'd be just swell.

[Mr. Belgian Manders]

The Pinkpop article does NOT read that an American festival booked him the SAME weekend.

It reads "American festivals seem like a more popular choice for Paul"

But doesn't mean that it isn't possible.

[iamthehorn]

Friday:
Fleetwood > Mumford

Saturday
Beck > Paul

Sunday
> Tom Petty

Thank you for the accurate translation.

[Camp James Bond]

Man.. I would 100 times over prefer the Stones cause we all know they aren't going out with 4 shows.

But Paul would be so good.

[krstphr]

Everyone just keep expectations in check. Don't get too excited and start changing your avatars or anything.

Stones Friday, Macca Saturday

My google translation has the article saying:

"However, the advent of Green Day announced earlier. Smeets also said that negotiations with Paul McCartney ricocheted. "American festivals seem to have something more important," said the Pinkpop boss."


So is Google translation wrong and there is absolutely no mention of "festivals" in the original language? EDIT: I see your translation now....gotcha.

It doesn't say "He was booked for a festival instead" but the idea that he can't play the European festival because "American festivals seem to have something more important" is definitely pointing int he right direction.

[Mr. Belgian Manders]

Friday: Mumford & Sons -> Widespread Panic LN

Saturday: Billy Joel -> Paul McCartney

Sunday: Fleetwood Mac -> Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Apparently he attended Coachella in 2011...So maybe he's just going
