Uncle Joe Benson at the Paul McCartney concert, 10/25/02.

   

Another Friday (this time it was October 18, 2002) and suddenly there was Uncle Joe on Chris Taylor's ARROW 93 broadcast from the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim giving away exclusive passes to Paul McCartney's soundcheck.

Here's the "full" songs that Paul played in his 45 minute soundcheck (there were many parts of other tunes worked in as well):
(1). "Coming Up"
(2). "India, (take me back to India)" a song he made up just for doing soundchecks
(3). "Matchbox"
(4). "Honey Don't"
(5). "C'Moon" (an extended jam)
(6). "Calico Skies"
(7). "Blackbird"
(8). "Midnight Special"
(9). "Do You Want to Know a Secret"
(10). "You Never Give Me Your Money"
(11). "Carry That Weight"
(12). "Lady Madonna"
