Paul McCartney Kicks Off 2023 Tour in Australia: Videos + Setlist

The post Paul McCartney Kicks Off 2023 Tour in Australia: Videos + Setlist appeared first on Consequence.

Paul McCartney kicked off the Australian leg of his 2023 tour at Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Wednesday night (October 18th), marking his first live performance in more than a year.

During the nearly three-hour set, McCartney mixed in his own solo hits alongside his work with the Beatles and Wings. As with his previous “Got Back” concerts, Macca opened the show with “Can’t Buy Me Love” before going into Wings’ “Junior’s Farm” and “Letting Go.” This was followed by his first performance of the Beatles’ “She’s a Woman” since 2004.

Though none of the songs from Macca’s most recent album, McCartney III, made the setlist, he did run through “Fuh You” and “Come On to Me” from 2018’s Egypt Station. He also reached back into his catalog for songs like “Maybe I’m Amazed,” “Here Today,” and “Dance Tonight.”

And as he has in the past, McCartney played The Quarrymen cut “In Spite of All the Danger.” Among the Beatles highlights were “Hey Jude,” “Love Me Do,” “Ob La Di Ob La Da,” “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise),” and “Helter Skelter.”

Check out fan-shot footage and the full setlist below.
