Paul McCartney U.S. tour 2005!

The Houston Chronicle, in this article by Ken Hoffman, suggests that Paul McCartney may be planning a new U.S. tour next year. (The relevant parts are in the middle of the article, but we've reprinted them below.)
The article says, and we quote,

Guinn said Reliant Stadium -- all 70,000 seats -- is "chasing" some major concert events for 2004 and 2005.

Paul McCartney reportedly is planning a 26-city U.S. tour in 2005. Is that one of the major concert events you're chasing?

"We're always at the mercy of scheduling and routing but, yes, he is one of the people we've identified," Guinn said.
However, a source we checked with says all indications Paul has given to associates up until now are that he will not do a U.S. tour. It's possible, even likely, that the newspaper report is purely speculative and grasping at straws, so to speak. We'll keep an eye on further developments and if we hear anything, of course, we'll let you know.

McCartney ready to reactivate When I'm 64

Sir Paul McCartney says he may perform The Beatles' classic When I'm 64 on his next tour.

McCartney, who will turn 64 on June 18, 2006, hasn't performed the song onstage before, but admits the getting time is near when it might be ready to "reactivate" the track which originally appeared on 1967's Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album.

He told America's National Public Radio, "It's getting dangerously close I must say. If I still have the urge and the energy and the desire to be on tour then, I think that might be the year that I reactivate that song.

"Funny story with that was that I was talking to some lady and she said `You know I play piano in an old person's home and I hope you will forgive me, but I play When I'm 64,' and I said, `Oh, that's great, that's lovely, it's a great tribute.'

"And, she said, `But, I hope you will forgive me because I have to change the lyrics because 64 is very young for these people. I have to do When I'm 84.'"

McCartney wrote When I'm 64 with its lyrics about spending summers in the Isle of Wight "if it's not too dear" with grandchildren "Vera, Chuck and Dave" while he was dating British actress Jane Asher.

Тур начнется 16 сентября в Майами и закончится в ноябре. Всего Маккартни посетит 38 городов.

McCartney's top ticket price will be over $200

In today's Wall Street Journal online there is a story about Clear Channel revamping it's concert business with a blurb about Paul McCartney's upcoming US tour. The article says that "blockbuster" artists like McCartney were unlikely to be affected by the changes at Clear Channel and that his top ticket price was expected to be "well over $200."

Бедно живут амриафролатиноканцы!
350 уев никто не хочет заплатить!

Все билеты - в Россию! И концерты сюда же перенести! Стыдно вам, господа забугорные, на нищую жизнь жаловаться!
