Paul McCartney to Be the Wizard of Oz: 6 Show Australia Tour Announced by 81 Years Young Beatle

Share

Paul McCartney hasn’t just been relaxing all summer in the Hamptons, taking in “Oppenheier” with Steven Spielberg.

He’s also been planning a big tour of Austtalia and New Zealand and who knows where else:

At 81, Paul is bouncing around like a teenager. He’s got plenty of songs to sing, and millions of fans who want to see him.

McCartney’s US tour last year was a blast. And after seeing Bruce Springsteen several times lately on his tour, Paul accepts the challenge!

PS Paul also has an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London called “Paul McCartney Photographs 1963-64: Eyes of the Storm” Exhibition which closes October 1st. More than 250 photos from Paul’s personal archive. A fascinating look at an international cultural phenomenon, definitely a must if you’re in London!

Details coming…
