I wouldn't be surprised if he uses the publicity around Glastonbury to annouce some U.K / Europe shows, which will be announced just after the festival and scheduled for later in the year. Oct/Nov/Dec for example.
I think he'll take July and August off after the U.S tour and Glastonbury are done with.
Just a guess though!

Any rumors of 2nd dates being added to various venues?
I'm thinking Hard Rock and Baltimore will get a second show; but then again Paul may need to rest his voice between stops.
Thoughts?
I wouldn't be surprised if there are second nights added for Hard Rock, Oakland, maybe Fenway...?
There are enough gaps in the schedule.
Unlikely. The man is 80.
Yes, but he's already doing back-to-back nights in Seattle, so he's happy to do it. I'd be surprised if more shows are not added. Not loads, but perhaps another three or four in either the smaller venues or bigger markets, so:
Hollywood, Fla
Oakland
Boston
Baltimore
LA
NYC / NJ

How did everyone do on the Amex presale?
I was able to get Winston-Salem; Hollwood, Fla; Orlando; and Met Life.
I managed to get Pit standing for Hollywood, at face value, so I am very happy indeed!
Now just need to try and get something decent on the floor for Orlando.
Has anyone looked at the seating plans for the different venues yet?
I had a look and there is quite a lot of variation.
Hard Rock Live has an all standing general admission 'pit' area. It was like this for The Stones.
Seattle shows the floor area as one big GA area. This can't be right?!
Oakland appears to have a small 'pit' area next to the stage and in front of the reserved floor seating.
The rest of the seating maps all look normal, i.e. the floor is 100% reserved seating.
I wonder if the current seating plans are accurate?

It's the same imagery and font used for the 'Freshen Up' tour. I imagine this is just an amateur mock-up.
Anyway, should be less than 45mins until the big reveal!

Billy Joel just played there, and I think Elton is due to soon as well.
So it seems they are really hammering the vintage acts!
Would not be at all surprised if this show was announced for Paul.
After seeing the Stones there in November, and staying at the hotel, it is really great to just be able to walk down from your hotel room, grab a beer, and hit the show!
Sounds great. Was it more expensive than usual? That's what I heard.
Yes, unfortunately tickets were priced higher than normal because it was a much smaller venue than the stadiums that they played for the rest of the dates on the tour. I managed to get two floor tickets, which were general admission standing, for face value, so I felt quite lucky. I would think perhaps that for Paul it would be all seating?
But to reiterate my point above, just being able to hang out at the hotel / casino before AND after the show, without having to worry about transport etc. sure was great!

I don't believe it. Venue is 7K peeps, much too small for Paul. Plus, it's not listed on the official site. Wish it were true, would be great seeing him in a small place but I doubt that it will happen.
Well, other artists that normally play bigger venues (The Rolling Stones, Billy Joel, Elton John...) have all played there or are about to. The owners of the Hotel / Casino have a sh*t ton of money to throw at booking the very best acts out there.
It's not listed on the official site because it's only a rumour at this point.
