-
Maybe it refers to Mr. Toad's Wild Ride and he will be playing in Anaheim, CA!

Yes, you'd think he'd add a few west coast dates.

Perhaps the "wild ride" could be more dates in NYC such as Radio City Music Hall and The Beacon Theater?
Doubtful. The NY area is pretty saturated already with Brooklyn, MSG and Nassau.
But if those shows sell out this week those venues have a chance as more shows being added. The Rolling Stones did something similar a number of years ago. just a guess of course

FlowersOnTheRun:
On Paul's Spotify page, it lists a September 30th show at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit
Saw that. They don't list the Oct 1st date, tho. They also show the 2 Tampa dates, but only one Miami date. Tomorrow's on sales could be interesting.

took off from work tomorrow just to get tickets from Monday's on sales and possible add ons

Rumor that it was moved as 30th is Yom Kippur

More on the way, hmm? Question is... when will they be announced?
Yeah, I have friends out west who are wondering!
I'm one of them, lol! I really think Anaheim should be in the cards for a show...
I could go for that.

Bob Gannon:

What do you expect? All the rumoured ones from when the thread took off again are now on sale, and the few prematurely announced ones (through Spotify/Songkick etc.) are awaited to be announcement, same with the ones in Brazil announced in the local press. Nothing more to discuss. The usual flat line on Europe and Australia.

hmm everything is on sale huh? Shows how much you know my friend.....answer...NOT MUCH. And while flat at the moment, I think you'll see at least a few Europe shows (just a guess reading into an earlier conversation with someone who does know....unlike you!)....I love people who know absolutely nothing post like they know what's up. It's quite entertaining. Well, for those folks who are Bob believers, stay alert and expect it at any time! And while he still may not be playing near you, you will still have more opportunities to see him if willing to travel.....remember, many shows/countries enter negotiations with Paul's people all the time...many do not get the shows so always take into account that nothing is Confirmed until announced by Paul McCartney's website! To all good luck tomorrow, and I think the other general sale is on Friday?

Stay alert and expect it any time, isn't that a tad melodramatic!?

nobodytoldme means that everything that has been announced at the moment is on sale. None of us are really privy to further shows (except maybe you). We were perplexed by your initial comment because it seems natural that the thread went quiet. None of us are aware of any further rumors (save Brazil shows in October), hence the silence on this thread.

saying that there is nothing more to discuss...I'm not the only one who took it as rude, several people contacted me off list pissed off at his post. Reading it, it's not the way I took it either.....

May 01 is a holiday (worldwide?), so perhaps they are waiting for it to be over in order to announce the rumored Brazilian shows, meaning later this week.

I was thinking the same thing. The journalist (he was the first and only source to announce these gigs) said ''may 2 is the day for the pre sale''. Some friends of mine thinks that is just false rumors, cause the journalist is not the best source about Paul... He is really wrong when talks about the ''tour commemorating the 50th anniversary of Sgt. Peppers'' but that is not the first time that the brazilian press says something like the ''Stg. Peppers tour'', I remember they announced in 2012 ''Paul is coming back with his new tour: the Kisses on the Bottom tour''.

Still think we may see several second nights added to the US cities even NYC as it seems he is setting up a residency there. Think more US cities will be announced soon. South America seems to be the hot rumor now for October. So perhaps The UK will get their winter shows? If the new album does in fact drop in September you may expect appearances on SNL and The Tonight Show as well as several local syndicated national shows that are taped out of NYC The website is pitching Sgt Peppers 50th Anniversary CD so there may be the tie in for Paul to mention that in Tokyo to sell some and hence to at least perform the reprise. At least it is being acknowledged All speculation on my part

In Tokyo, Paul added "Sgt. Pepper (reprise)" to the setlist, wore a jacket with Sergent's stripes on the sleeve, and mentioned the anniversary during the concerts...so maybe that's all he has promised to do and they've extrapolated from that?

What the heck holiday is that? May Day? One of our surgeons, long since retired, used to do a sing-song on May 1st (May Day) "May Day, May Day. Hooray, hooray. Outdoor f*#king starts today!"
