John Lennon (and Band) Live Concert - 2010-PICK the SONGS!!!

[Paperback Writer]

OK, dream-time, John is alive, he is touring, Macca style, 3 hour concerts, 38 songs.

In this case, he stopped writing music after Milk and Honey was released.
He went on into environmental and human rights causes, was very effective behind the scenes and in fund-raising and raising awareness for his favorite causes.

He went on to be great friends again with Paul, George and Ringo.  Resiting playing, recording or writing with Paul - he compromises.  The compromise, to remind and preserve his musical legacy, he looks to Macca and tours with a crack band and 38 inter-changeable songs. 

Listed below are my  38 songs to open the tour.  PLEASE PICK YOURS -  ADD, SUBTRACT and REPLACE WITH YOUR PICKS.  Most of all - have fun!

[2 of 3]

Well, now I am just sad.......that we will never hear this. 

Great list though...man...if the Beatles were all still alive...WHAT A SHOW!!

[mervap]

Funny how every time one lists a collection of a Beatles band/solo tunes I am STAGGERED by the sheer amount of quality in them...who else could do that? Great list!

[Greg]

Ha! Hey Bulldog.  Great one.  Obscure.

I would love to see him do #9 Dream.

I can't see 70-year-old Lennon doing Come Together or parts of I Should Have Known Better or Twist and Shout.  He couldn't hit the notes.  But, ...maybe.  I'm just guessing.

When he did New York City on the tour he would do...New York City off of Sometime in NYC?

Thanks, guys, it  was sad, but staggering in how many great songs he could call upon.
makes me lust for more Beatle live (clean) recordings and ANYTHING he may have recorded live, solo (or with  other musicians), besides what been out there.

[Kylenz]

I'm glad to see Nobody Told Me and the Double Fantasy tunes in there, they were the ones I instantly thought of. And Hey Bulldog too. All of that set list looks really good. I Found Out would be a good one - the Red Hot Chili Peppers once did a great version. And he could also get someone like Green Day come on as guest backing band for Working Class Hero!
