I understand. Paul should go to the places he hasn't in years. There are whole continents dying to see him and haven't in decades. This is why he should really go to these places and make up to Denmark before he considers going to the same places again. There are people on here like you who haven't seen Paul in too long, and others who have seen Paul 12 times within 2 years! There's too much of the world and not enough of Paul to go around.
I think what people do not understand is that Paul does not pick the places he plays, the promoters and the markets decide that. He cancelled some Australian dates in '03 or '04 and he never went back. If the market is soft or soft for him he may not play there even if he wants to. Touring is complicated. Deals have to be made for every city and venue. Horsens may not want him or be able to afford him. It's simple economics and his concerts are a huge and complex deal. It's not just him and a guitar showing up. It's him and 200 other people in a gigantic expense of planes and trucks and cars and hotels, etc, and it takes months to put these tours together. McCartney on Tour is a business, not just a person. Perspective.
I believe Paul cancelled Australia because of tension in Asia area ie bombings ( memory's fuzzy not too sure on this one) and /or the nail in our Aussie coffin was the GFC the almighty dollar just didnt stretch this far. It was nothing to do with interest , crowd numbers (or lack of them!!!) Come On Paul Back to Australia Pleeeease! you haven't been here since '92 ! ( and remember Brisbane too this time!)
