During his 2024 “Got Back” tour, Paul McCartney performed two consecutive concerts in Buenos Aires on October 5 and 6. Following performances in Chile and Brazil, he returned to Argentina for a third show on this day in Córdoba, marking his second appearance in the city since his “One On One” tour in 2016.
The song “New,” a staple of the “Got Back” tour setlist, was unexpectedly omitted that evening. Paul’s band swiftly transitioned the keyboard sound from “New” to “Lady Madonna” as Paul began playing the latter instead.
From LaVoz, October 24, 2024 (auto-translated from Spanish):
Happiness in its most absolute state. That contagious energy, born in the heat of songs that changed the history of modern culture in the last 60 years, started all its engines last night with the huge show of Paul McCartney and his band at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium.
Everything rubbed shoulders with the miracle. First of all, the chance to see for the second time in 8 years! the former Beatle at the Cordoba World Cup stadium.
Then, how extraordinary it is that this living legend faces a two-and-a-half-hour show at 82 years old, with the vitality and attitude of someone who will definitely be forever young.
And finally, the climatic truce that settled over Cordoba, after the ferocious storm that shook the city a few hours earlier. Despite a few drops that fell again in the middle of the show, it was an unforgettable, emotional, rocking and exciting party.
The celebration began early, with a Kempes dressed with the slogan Welcome Back Paul!, used in all the cities that were receiving this Got Back Tour.
The first to break the ice, at 7:31 p.m., was Zoe Gotusso, a great choice from Cordoba as the opening act, already with experience in playing in stadiums in the run-up to massive shows (she opened all 10 Coldplay shows in River in 2023). Accompanied by a drummer, a guitarist, she established the atmosphere of relaxation and warmth that her music transmits, played her hits (Ganas, Un bossa+, María) and anticipated something from her new album that will be released tomorrow. He also showed skill when the tracks failed him and he had to resort to the acoustic format. A well-deserved applause for her and her group.
DJ Chris Holmes warmed up the atmosphere by remixing songs from McCartney’s discography, and at 9 p.m., with English punctuality, the Sir appeared, with his emblematic Hofner bass in hand, dark suit and white shirt. Elegance is also its virtue. […]

Hi.
Although it was on the written setlist, Paul didn't play New.
Don't know if he missed or what, but he went from NaT to Lady Madonna... and the first two bars of the piano intro had the harpsichord patch of New, before someone changed it to an acoustic piano sound.
Great site, guys.
I'm on a weekly radio show/podcast called "Café Beatle", and we use The PMcC as one of our many references.

Thanks Pablo. I'm updating the setlist. And thank you very much for the kind words!
