Looking at the other setlists, he did Wheels after Mystery train in LA, but I did not know the title of this instrumental

Also I have a few videos, I will upload on youtube as soon as possible. I don´t know if there will be any problem with that as I don´t think it was permitted by the venue...

@ Bodo- Don´t push that setlist panic button yet. I think, unlike some other tours, that Paul isn´t going to be doing the same set every night.
My bet is that he´ll have somewhere in the ballpark of three dozen songs that he´ll draw on to come up with the 25+ per night that he chooses to play.
I think that if he´s playing a town more than one night that we´ll see some differences between the night, and that we´ll see songs appear, disappear & then reappear again...at least I hope so.

I thought Love and Hard Times and the Afterlife were accepted very well at the two shows I saw. On the other hand maybe Paul just felt they weren´t as popular with the crowd as the more upbeat songs. It will be interesting to see how the set list evolves as the tour goes on.

Just downloaded the zipped up recording of the Seattle show - it is brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

Can I just clear up this medley thing?

A medley is a series of songs played together where just a short section is played. Paul Simon rarely, if ever does this.

What he does is play two songs back to back without a break, like Kodachrome/Maybeline in the Concert In Central Park and Gumboots/Whispering Bells in The African Concert.

This is called a segue, as described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segue

Yes, I hope he doesn´t drop Afterlife when he gets to Toronto & New York.

Also, seems a bit too much from Graceland (would like another from ROTS -eg The Coast and hoping he might include Something So Right), although I´m pleased he has Boy in The Bubble and Still Crazy in the encore.

Thanks Matthew for clearing that up.

I would have wondered if Paul just played part of songs...that ruins everything.
