Paul McCartney Announces Tour
The newlywed is going to bring 2011 to a close with eleven shows across three continents....
It's been a good year for the legend that is Sir Paul McCartney: he was voted Best Live Act at the UK Nordoff Robbins Silver Clef Awards; he launched his own ballet and get married for the third time.
Now the former Beatle has announced his On The Run tour is coming home and he will bring 2011 to a close with 11 special shows - including his first ever in the U.A.E at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - three of which are in the UK.
Sir Paul said, "Playing live is one of the most exciting parts of my job. I'm really looking forward to the next run of shows and to playing places that I have never played before with my band. I'll be starting with my first ever U.A.E concert and from there I’m on the run across Europe and Russia, before finally getting back to my hometown of Liverpool in time for Christmas. My audiences seem to get better each year and the band and I love the buzz and feedback that they give us. I can't wait to see you all for some wild nights of rock n' roll and partying"
