Up and ComingPaul McCartney just can’t stay away from our sports stadia, right? A mere 15,971 days after playing the ‘Stick, he’s back to play the ‘Booth.
“Paul McCartney has announced two new performance dates, the first at San Francisco’s very own AT&T Park on Saturday July 10th, and then at the Rio Tinto stadium in Salt Lake City on Tuesday July 13th, as part of his ‘Up and Coming’ 2010 tour. Keeping with his headline-making special concerts over the last few years, the tour will see the iconic star and his band play unique venues, places and locations; new cities he’s never played and familiar markets he’s not visited for a while.”
Get that? He’s not visited “for a while.” I”ll check you on that, good buddy.
(Did you know he was also in a band _before_ Wings?)
See you there!
“The July 10th concert date at AT&T Park will be Paul’s first performance within the City of San Francisco since The Beatles’ last concert tour appearance – at Candlestick Park on August 29, 1966.
