5 Absolute Truths About Paul McCartney's Future -Agree or Dis-agree?

[Paperback Writer]

Agree or dis-agree with these five Macca future truths!

1. He will never record with Nigel Godrich again.

2.Paul will radically alter his tour format - playing some stadium shows of all Beatle - Wings hits, only, some small venues with a "boutique" song set-list of under-played, under-performed solo/Wings "chest-nuts."  He'll play the usual hockey/basketball arenas only in very large cities where he sells out 2 or more shows on consecutive nnights in the same city - set-list reflective of recent list formats with 10 new songs substituted in for old ones.

3.Paul releases MAF#2 - 12 songs from the same sessions as MAF - just as good!  BUT lest structured, more stretched out, and slightly "jammy" ala Let Me Roll It, Letting Go

4.Paul starts publicly dating a lovely brunette who is 60+ years!  (looks 25)

5.Begins, with Giles Martin, a "LOVE" version of HIS solo/Wings catalogue - without the show, sound collage, only.

Agree or Dis-agree!

1. Agree

2. A land mine here...he will never please everyone....just pick 'em, Macca, and we'll come see you.

3. Sounds great.

4. Macca can certainly date anybody he wants....just sign the pre-nup, luv!

5. Never thought of this, but I'd buy it.

1. Agree. He's 'been there done that'. Did a great album with him but it's time to move on.

2. I hope I'm wrong but I have the sneaky feeling that he will continue to rely on his Beatle catalogue for the crowd-pleasers. I'd like him to play more 'under-played' material, well he did Helter Skelter, I'll Get You and Too Many People.. maybe there is hope he could pull out a few more of those, but the set list continues to have too much Beatle stuff. Not that that's a bad thing, but I want Paul to play Paul McCartney material. Preferably newer stuff mainly, with the old tune thrown in as an exception rather than the norm.

3. Yeah I agree, make it like the B-sides from chaos, like Comfort Of Love, I Want You To Fly, Growing Up Falling Down... I've Only Got Two Hands (the instrumental after Anyway).

4. Yep I know people in the gossip magazines see that as tragic and sad but I say GO FOR IT! 

5. Totally 100% disagree. Giles can't make a mashup out of peas and spuds let alone a Beatles catalogue. Freelance Hellraiser has already done it. Twin Freaks is awesome. Otherwise, leave it to internet DJs to do a more decent and innovative job.

1. I'm not smart enough to have an opinion, so whatever ya'll say...

2. I don't think so.

3. That would be crazy, mad, awesome...and there is probably stuff lying around...

4. Lovely Brunette: YES! But let's make her about 37....

5. It is weird to listen to this songs drums and that songs lyrics, and this songs bass and that ones' whatever...but it does work, in my opinion. And it shows that each piece can stand on its own and be recognizable (as someone said about Ring's drums once)...I would buy it too...

That's pretty specific....you must have someone in mind?
