Former Beatle musician Paul McCartney announced tour dates
Newlywed Paul McCartney is not slowing down his work schedule. Just a day before he tied the knot with his fiancee Nancy Shevell at Marylebone Registry office in London, the former Beatle announces 11 new dates across Europe for his On the Run tour.
"Playing live is one of the most exciting parts of my job," he said. "My audiences seem to get better each year, and the band and I love the buzz and feedback they give us. I can't wait to see you all for some wild nights of rock n' roll and partying."
The 69-year-old musician debuts in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E for the first time ever on November 13 to coincide with the Formula 1 race in the country. He then goes to Italy, France, Germany before returning to England on December 5.
After his 5 days brief in the U.K., McCartney will fly to Sweden, Finland and Russia for a live concert each before heading back to country. He will perform in Manchester on December 19 and closes the tour with a gig in his hometown of Liverpool on Dec. 20.
