Paul, 30/06 AND 01/07 Horsens, Denmark - POSTPONED
-
As has been stated already, I don't understand why only after arranging, booking, and selling tickets for these two shows, that Paul's people decided playing the shows made no sense. Methinks something is afoot, whether that be a retooling, Paul needing vocal rest, or the realization that having a tour now doesn't make sense until his new album is released and concerts could be used as promotion for that album. Didn't Paul claim to have given up smoking the funny-smelling cigarettes?

Perhaps people might agree with you if you weren't so damn rude. sh**ty 20k seaters? It's not a contest. Plus I personally think smaller venues are better. We have an 80k seater in Ireland and I wouldn't go to a concert there even if Paul was playing.
Well, there are those who get theArgentinean sense of humor and those that don't (like you, Sir). I was just explaining the person who said "Paul shouldn't go to South America again" why he shoould, that's all. Maybe you should read the text I quoted before calling me rude?
No, you were pretty rude. Humor usually works if BOTH parties are laughing. Just a hint... Oh, and the person you just responded to is a female, not a male.
Ok, so for me it was rude and idiotic suggestic Paul shouldn't play South America anymore, ok? There are plenty of cities (and countries) here where he never performed and he would easily sell many more tickets in these cities for a single concert than he would in any European or American city. Did you check how many people attended the 2 Recife concerts in Brazil last April? Who Paul shouldn't return to a country where 100.000 souls pay a high priced ticket to see him in 2 nights? Especially when that country is vast and has huge cities where he never performed. Where are Oobu and Nancy? Both are invited next time Paul comes. By the way, this is me backstage in Paraguay April 17, 2012 https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/540041_3949754548009_2053440798_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/534404_3975773038455_1411939556_n.jpg

To all Danish fans. It can't really make up for the cancelled gig but if you are in Copenhagen tomorrow, you might like to go to Tim Christensen's Paul McCartney tribute gig: http://www.bt.dk/musik/tim-c.-holder-foedselsdagsfest-for-paul-mccartney http://vega.dk/arrangementer/pure-mccartney-7164.html

It is ridiculous to get angry at fans here on the board who live in places where McCartney goes to perform. If he goes to South America and not Australia, so be it. Get mad at the McCartney camp, not at people who live in those places. :

I get it. McCartney plays where HE lives but not where YOU live.

While the fans seem to be quite enthusiastic in south America, I doubt anything will top the feeling in the arena when he performed in Liverpool at Christmas, and that was only to 15,000 people I think.

Dublin 2009 came pretty close and Liverpool 2010 topped it...that was only 1000 people. Size ain't everything!

Agreed, good doctor. Hopefully it's about the fun you have at a show versus how many people are squished into a venue around you.

Didn't Paul claim to have given up smoking the funny-smelling cigarettes?
you maybe right but Paul is a business man as well as a musician. he did list his profession as business man when he married Nancy don't forget if it's not financially beneficial for him to play a concert he will not do it. if demand says he should play SA, Mexico or the USA that's what he will do if he can incorporate Denmark in a large European tour he will do that Denmark may have been part of a two or three country tour that fell apart at the last minute forcing him to cancel. That's why he needs to announce dates in advance, and not piece together a tour on the fly. right now he's making money touring not selling CDs

Well, nothing can top the feeling I got seeing Paul in Brazil, nothing. And I'm Argentinean! But the Brazilian audience is second to none, regardless of how many peoiple attended the concerts. Even Paul seemed moved by the singing, the signs and everything else.

Now that was funny!

That is the bottom line.

Absolutely, and the same can be true of quite a few performers. He's not cancelled often, but when he has, it's either because of health reasons (lost his voice) or financial reasons.
