Macca`s , bank balance is a bit low , so start saving up people

From the N.M.E.

McCartney is in the process of planning a huge world tour for this autumn, taking in gigs in the UK, the USA, Canada and Australia.

Representatives for McCartney have been meeting concert promoters around the world this month to iron out the details of the tour, on which he is set to debut selections from an album's worth of new songs he has written.

According to the Daily Mirror, McCartney's tour director flew to Nova Scotia in Canada recently to meet with promoter Harold MacKay.

The duo discussed a possible date at the 50,000 capacity Halifax Common venue, where The Rolling Stones performed in 2006.

The world tour dates are set to be finalised in May.

I have always heard he is amazing in concert, is that true? Is it worth spending the money?? If it is I might just have to see if he is coming around Minnesota. Doubt it, but there's always hope.

I kind of hope he comes here, cause if he does, and I can afford the tickets, I think I will take my dad, cause without him, I wouldn't have ever heard the beatles.

Wonderful news! He comes through to California every couple of years or so it seems and I never have the money to go. But this time I will so I am very excited!

ok, i have HAVE to see this

Sgt. Pepper 45822 · « **Reply #10 on:** April 12, 2008, 09:39:01 PM »

Well I am rather scared, cause I called my local radio station, and they had not heard anything about him touring. I wish I could write him an e-mail or something he would actually get to read or see before he finalizes his tour dates, but I know that's next to impossible. It has been so long since he has been to Minnesota and now that I have a job and could quite possibly afford the tickets as long as I save up, I am unsure if he will Grace us with his presence. I really hope he makes a stop here, cause I really want to see him. If the tour dates come out and he isn't coming here, I am pretty sure I will cry.

i have already started trying to get some of my mates to get tickets if he hits scotland but most of them either dont like the beatles or only like his work in the beatles and not solo :O

PaulieBear · « **Reply #13 on:** April 14, 2008, 01:19:52 AM »

OMG I MIGHT BE ON CRUTCHES BUT I WILL SEE THIS

HeatherBoo · « **Reply #14 on:** April 14, 2008, 01:26:03 AM »

I'm not really into his solo stuff myself, but I just want to be able to see him live. I mean, he's not getting any younger so who knows when his last tour will be.

thats exactly my reason ive put to my mates who love the beatles but dont like his solo, at the age we are we missed the beatles and you never know if its gonna be our last chance to see him.

I'm totally into his Wings and solo material and he should perform much more of it! He's given the last TWO DECADES to the Beatle lovers, how about giving the fans who love the rest of his fantastic career a chance to hear that material as well!

Has anyone heard of any more news of Paul touring? I found a rumor from the Macca Report that he wants to tour America next year and is ready to announce that this month--but I have not heard anything official.

Not a thing, but of course rumors never stop circulating. Two good sites for news:

http://abbeyrd.best.vwh.net/fabnews.htm
(A great site for Beatles-related news)

http://www.paulmccartney.com/
(Paul's own website. The "latest headlines" module is often updated.)
