Paul McCartney Adds A Few Nights In The USA

After playing 32 shows in 30 cities throughout South, Central and North America in 2014, Paul McCartney’s “Out There” tour has more ground to cover. Last week he announced the first U.S. arena date of 2015 and now he’s back with two more gigs in the States.

The new shows take place June 23 in Charlottesville, Va., and June 25 in Columbia, S.C.

Fans won’t want to miss these gigs. After all, as Macca’s website points out, “the McCartney live experience is a once in a lifetime opportunity.” Audience members will be treated to state of the art technology and production, featuring “massive screens, lasers, fireworks, unique video content and, of course, the best songs in the world.”
