Now it's a head scratcher with the millions Paul probably spends in lawyers he couldn't get a deal on which he can leave England for more than a week in a row?
Maybe he simply doesn't want to be away from his daughter for more than a week at a time?
Good excuse to do some show in England then.
Don't worry, he will do something in England before the year is out.

That's of course true, but when work calls he can make one or two exceptions, right?

Come on, dear! Let's be friends anyway!
Now this one's for you, Frankie

In that case, it's going to feel like a loooong year.

Honestly, if I could get the time off and I knew just one person who liked Paul as much as me to go with I'd probably have gone to Warsaw, Vienna and Verona all in one!

Well, tickets are a lot cheaper in those European venues as well!

I wish I was Brazilian
Be careful with what you wish for, it may come true and you might end up living in a favela
What's a favela?
It's a place where poor people live: a slum. But I'll refrain from making jokes about the present state of the economy in Argentina.
What's it like where you live? I won't joke about Argentina, either. I'm British, so.... can of worms!
I live in New Mexico, so don't even get me started!!!
haha...I'm in Illinois. Most of our politicians are so corrupt that they end up in jail!

So, about PAUL MCCARTNEY

Aw, what about the rest of UK/GB :

With Verona announced....you know have your full slate of European shows
If that's true, I hope every effort was made to fit in a show in Denmark to make up for last year's cancellation?

I forgot about that. Poo! That's really bad. They promised to make up for it, too.

That's right. The people there are really getting the shaft.

Oobu, got a very valid point there for sure. But nothing this time out. With the UK suspiciously missing from all of this, I am hoping for the return of Christmas UK shows. Or perhaps, let's not dismiss the possibility of more dates in the fall to support the new album. Figure this leg will end mid August just in time for the yearly vacation in the Hamptons

If the list of rumours from BeatleFan is true and complete, I'd like to try and go to New York and Washington DC. But when I think of venues, I speculate Madison Square Garden and Verizon Center. Last time he's been in both cities, it's been outdoor stadium shows.
I agree that it will most likely be stadiums - am wondering would he play the MetLife Stadium out in NJ, as he hasn't played there for a while - possibly not since the '93 New World Tour? He's played every other major stadium in the city over the last few years so I'm feeling like he may think it's time. I'll most likely pass if that's where he ends up - I'd seriously consider Italy and/or the UK (which I'd love to do anyway) before doing the Brooklyn / Meadowlands commute, which is usually a nightmare from start to finish. However, I'd gladly sell body parts and/or relatives on eBay if he'd play the Barclays Center!!!
I'm thinking MetLife, possibly Citi Field... Maybe Red Bull Arena... I have a feeling it will be over in Jersey. Don't think he'll be doing arenas, but I would love the Barclays. If he were to do MSG, it would have to be before July, before the renovations, or September, after the renovations. Have you seen a show at MetLife or the Barclays?
Saw Paul twice at the old Giants Stadium - the new MetLife Stadium is very nice but again, just a nightmare to get to depending on where you're coming from. A bus and several trains involved each way for me and at my age, I honestly can't be bothered. Driving out there is even worse (not that I have a car anyway!) - I still hear stories of people spending hours trying to get back from events there - no thank you! Your shout on Red Bull Arena would be *tremendous*, KingMacca - actually, it's brilliant. Seating capacity there is larger than both MSG and Barclays, it's outdoor, easy as pie public transportation for those who want it - can someone float this to Paul's people, please?! I've seen a number of shows at the Barclays Center now - I like it a lot (and yes, would love Macca to play there!) - but think it's too small for this round of shows. He will want to be outdoors and playing for as many as possible. So, fingers crossed it's Citi Field again, slight hopes up that it'd be Red Bull Arena, but gut is telling me Met Life Stadium.
Red Bull Arena would be amazing. It's outdoors yet it's smaller, easy to get to as you said, and would make an incredible concert venue. I saw a soccer game there this summer and I couldn't believe how small it was. Plus, the staff are nice and the prices are a little less expensive for food. Not like Yankee Stadium where it was $10 for a hotdog and fries. But I'm used to high prices, I go to Yankee Games many times a year and the stadium is only 35 minutes away, a 40 minute train ride. Here's hoping for Red Bull Arena!

Bob, is there definitely no chance at all of a summer UK show?
