Paul McCartney returns to Hollywood Bowl on March 30th and 31st.
Paul McCartney will play the Hollywood Bowl on March 30 & 31st, his first concert at the venue since 1993, as part of his just-announced 2010 Up and Coming tour. As hes been doing in recent years, the latest tour will be a combination of markets hes never visited and those he hasn't played lately.
The tour opens March 28 in Glendale, Ariz., and brings him to Los Angeles two nights later. His publicists statement this morning announcing the trek indicates that for these shows hell pull out classics from throughout his catalog (Beatles, Wings and solo) as well as his 2008 album Electric Arguments (recorded under the pseudonym the Fireman). McCartney, 67, promises to include some never-before-played-on-U.S.-soil songs in the set, as well as ("I Want to) Come Home," his Golden Globe-nominated tune from the Robert De Niro flick Everybodys Fine.
Tickets went on sale Sunday, Feb. 28, at 10 a.m. Prices: $50-$350.
On his last tour he performed for David Letterman at the Ed Sullivan Theater, where the Beatles made their U.S. television debut in 1964. He also played several shows at Citi Field in New York, by the former site of the Beatles Shea Stadium concerts in 1965 and 66. The Fab Four also made historic tour stops at the Hollywood Bowl in 1964 and '65.
