Perhaps it will be something similar to his May/June 2004 tour of Europe.
It's about time. But knowing from experience I wouldn't get my hopes up too high. Those days are long gone. He will tour America full on and maybe throws in a few easy money makers in Europe over the summer. Also, the larger part including special moments like a tribute as 'Here Today' will still be the same as that tour. Frustrating, since when he does add fresh things he ditches it after one leg or never gets them to another continent ('Your Mother Should Know', 'The Word', 'Come And Get It' and so on) or swaps them for the same ol' same ol' after one tour ('The Night Before', 'Letting Go', 'I'm Looking Through You' and so on) or not even past one or two shows ('Every Night', 'Hope Of Deliverance' and so on). The reviews and concert attendees will mention this in Europe.
That is frustrating. I think he played "You Won't See Me" in the summer of 2004 and that was that. It's a great song. I never saw it live.
Along with "She's a Woman"!
Yup. Those are gone. But "Here Today" is here to stay!
Here today, gone tomorrow. ops:

The current rumors: February 14 - New York May - Latin America June 19-21 - Firefly Festival (the 18th is off, being his birthday) June - Paris (either the first half or the 27th) Summer - US tour Apparently there's also a rumor of a concert in London, but I don't know how reliable that is.
http://www.bst-hydepark.com Makes sense, no?
The only thing is that the show would be a late edition. Hyde Park usually seems to advertise most of those shows together, and give early notice. That's what I feel, anyway.

The Calling Festival, which used to be Hard Rock Calling and held in Hyde Park, is now going to be in Clapham 4th + 5th July. Looks like they have announced the Sat. lineup but not the Sunday one yet...Clapham is not Central London, of course...but?

OK, then that makes a lot of since as Hard Rock Calling, I think has had him in the past(or was he a surprise with another artist?). In any event, I think we need to pay attention to that Sunday slot announcement. How strong is the Paris rumour now?

Paul appeared at HRC on his own in 2010 and as a guest on Neil Young's show in 2009 and Bruce Springsteen's show in 2012 (the infamous "power cut"). BST announced last year's Arcade Fire gig only about six weeks before the event.
-
Now that the New York appearances are gone, it seems it will be another two months before he's onstage again. Unless there's another surprise, of course. By the way, one of the groups that will perform at the Rock In Rio 2015 Festival (September 18-27 in Rio de Janeiro) is called Hollywood Vampires: Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp and Joe Perry. Paul has recorded "Come And Get It" with them, how cool would it be if he decided to show up as a surprise guest?
-
The Calling Festival only seems to be on a Saturday this year. Everything on the official website is focused on Noel Gallagher as the headliner. The only thing not shown are the full line up for the day for minor groups. Other UK festivals have yet to announce some bigger names. Lovebox, Reading, Wireless, for example.

hi 5th Beatle, My boss just handed me my schedule to pick my vacation from June 2015-16...how do your predictions usually turn out. I have to pick everything by tonight! Not much notice ...would like to go to Europe to see Paul play France, or Italy or Holland... Any rumors on that?

Heard that already happened! Any more exciting rumors? I heard he might do "Something" by George... On the Ukelele to boot! An even bolder move by Paul than the song w/Kanye!

Did you know that George was a great ukulele player?

Hi! Unfortunately I cannot guarantee that any of the current rumors will come true, but it has been discussed here in this thread that he may play in France in June, and he usually tours the US in July/August. I need to plan my vacations too, and I wish Paul's team would announce his concerts 3-4 months in advance, instead of 4-6 weeks.

Firefly lineup leaked on the app. Paul is playing. Expect a formal announcement tomorrow. So- do you think Paul will tour the US before Firefly, then go on to the UK/Europe, then back to the US later in July, or do you think FF will be the first US show, and he'll continue onward? It seems like Firefly's place in the itinerary will be similar to Bonnaroo back in '13. It's gearing up to be an awesome summer!

How nice! Will his concert be on the 19th or 20th of June?

Unconfirmed. However, I have a feeling he'll do the Friday (19th) set. I think an East coast run will come with the Fest (NYC, Boston, Philly, DC)
