Paul McCartney announces more U.S. shows in Out There Tour

Following a hugely successful series of fall concerts in 2012, Sir Paul McCartney is back on the road this spring. The Out There Tour contains relatively few dates with just seven cities announced to date, but it looks like the 70-year old former Beatle is far from calling it a music career.

The U.S. 2013 Out There Tour dates are as follows:
May 18 – Orlando, FL, Amway Center *Newly announced
May 22 – Austin, TX, Frank Erwin Arena
May 26 – Memphis, TE, FedEx Forum *Newly announced
May 29 – Tulsa, OK, BOK Center
July 9 – Boston, MA, Fenway Park
July 12 – Washington, D.C., Nationals Park
July 19 – Seattle, WA, Safeco Field *Newly announced

Tickets to the Orlando, Memphis and Seattle dates go on sale this Friday, and are also available for pre-order on our website.

Here are six of the most intense, protracted, ridiculous, and productive breakups in rock music history.
