        Looked it up and he has played Fenway in 2009,2013 and 2016 so I don't think it really is a major snub.

        Maybe I'm amazed !!

          Hey, your nearest show is roughly 3 1/2 hours. My nearest is roughly 6 hours. I feel bad for west coast folks who are nowhere near a show (yet)

          off the ground

              Here in California you can be nowhere near a show within the same state, unlike some east coasters who can travel to many states within 6 hours. It's all about the radius...not the state. Paul can perform several concerts on the east coast within a certain radius, easily driveable, where in California he may do 2 shows with a HUGE distance in between them. Example: Sacramento and San Diego are 500 miles apart, but within the same state. Paul is doing many concerts in a shorter distance on the east coast.

                Same frustration here in Texas, although Shreveport is 6 hours, so it isn't horrible.

                    That's great, Nancy! It helps when you don't have hotel or transportation costs. I have to drive 200 miles to the closest venues this summer.

                      I'd be happy if Paul was performing 200 miles from my home.

                        Oh I'm not complaining about the 200 miles distance... I'd be happy to see him no matter what! Sending positive thoughts to my fellow fans on the west coast (and Boston!) and in Australia, Britain and Europe that you all will hear some good news soon about concert dates.

                          I understand because when McCartney last played Charlotte, it was basically a 15 minute drive for me and no interstate.

                          Maybe I'm amazed !!
