beatlesfanrandy:
So four U.S. shows is all he's doing in 2015? No other rumors?
6...so far. (2 Fests, 3 "Out There" dates, and a N.Y. benefit).

Wow! That's his fewest in the States for several years! Unless some more announcements are coming.

IIRC, he did only 2 U.S. dates in 2012 with an additional 3 or 4 shows in Canada.

He ought to play Virginia Beach, Va., it's a beautiful place as large or larger than Miami, population of Virginia Beach is 348,000 and 1.7 million overall including the surrounding county--I google imaged search it, gorgeous beach and city not very far from other big cities in Virginia.

I think at least one more in July

Midwest? Maybe more than one? August too?

I wouldn't get my hopes up for any of the three unless things have drastically changed
-
I would guess a show in the Midwest in July, since he is playing Chicago late that month.
-
Any rumors for a Tampa show. I think it has been a long while since he did Tampa which obviously is a huge market. He did do Orlando on the last US tour I believe and he has been to Miami several times. Not sure, but I think he has only been to Tampa once over the last 10-15 years.

The last time Paul played Tampa was in 2005...and it was memorable in that he fell into the open piano pit that night! He played in Tampa prior to that in 2002.

If you lived in Chicago, do you think anything is coming closer than what is already official? Do we think anything will happen in the rest of 2015 in the U.S. after Lolla? What are the odds Paul will play another big General Admission festival in 2016?

I'd say he'll come back to the US later in this year/2016. But he came by Chicago last summer too. Doesn't look good for anything else... What's even left (festivals) for him to play? Governors Ball in NY? Lol

You're a funny chap, "KingMacca."
-
another festival? might see that What you have to remember is Paul's people are always working towards the next thing. It really is an amazing machine! Right now I would say the question is whether there will be a fall (ish) set of shows or are they carving out time to go into the studio (which I have seen him say in an earlier interview this year)...Plus the fact that the two new archives are slated sometime this year (supposedly). The one thing you seem to be able to count on is whether the man is touring, recording or doing side projects that he always seems to be busy!!!

Firefly would be bad timing for me, but I really want another chance at GA. I think Lollapalooza is going to be out of this world. Was hoping for at least one GA festival in America next year, and one show somewhere like Detroit or Ohio near lolla, so I could get two Paul shows in this year. Does it look like Lollapalooza will be the final show of "Out There"?

He could do Coachella again right? It would have been 7 years since he played it. Or Paul could start his own four day festival. 4 days of McCartney music - every song he's ever written. McCartney Fest or Paulapalooza.

^^^^^ if he did this I would die. I would pay $$$$$$ to see this. Or if he started having GA floor at his concerts, or at least a split floor (one half GA other half seated to cater to the, ahem, older audience members ) U2 charges $275 for a top ticket but $70 for GA floor spots. It can be done Paul.

If you want to stand for that length of time, be my guest. No GA Floor for me ever again. Age has nothing to do with it. I'll pay for a seat, thank you very much!
