I don't have any good theories, but this is highly unusual for a Faul tour.

(Reuters) - Former Beatle Paul McCartney, following his doctors' orders as he recovers from a viral illness after falling ill in Japan last month, has rescheduled some U.S. dates on his world tour.
"I'm sorry but it's going to be a few more weeks before we get rocking in America again. I'm feeling great but taking my docs' advice to take it easy for a few more days," McCartney said in a statement released on Monday.
He is expected to make a complete recovery.
The 71-year-old Grammy-winning musician canceled his sold-out "Out There"
tour dates in Japan and a concert in South Korea after being hospitalized for
the illness.
The tour will resume in Albany, N.Y., on July 5. Concerts are scheduled from June 14-26 in Lubbock, Texas; Dallas; New Orleans; Atlanta; Jacksonville, Florida; Nashville, Tennessee; and Louisville, Kentucky, have been rescheduled in October.
All tickets for the original shows will be honored for the new dates, according to the statement.
McCartney and drummer Ringo Starr are the only surviving members of the Liverpool band that shot to international prominence and made their U.S. television debut on "The Ed Sullivan Show" 50 years ago. The group's last public appearance together was in 1969.
After the group split up, McCartney formed the band "Wings" and has also had a long and successful solo career.

Some South American fans posted concert footage on YouTube of the Peruvian "Out There" concert. It's the usual theatrics and stage gimmicks and the dude simply cannot sing. He tries, but he sings out of tune. Maybe they decided he's such a bad singer, they have to do something.
Something's up, any ideas? Whatever it is, I suspect something is being changed that was going wrong, but what?

Those who attend don't care how badly Faul sings because it's clearly no longer about Faul. It's about old boomers wanting to recapture their youth one last time, and kids who regret being born way too late to experience The Swinging Sixties.
ReplyDeleteMaybe some Japanese Yakuza fan of the real Paul that knows the truth decided to poison him.
DeleteFaul's fingerprints never matched Pauls especially proven in 1960's Japan.
He's a very old man. He shouldn't be doing stuff like touring. It's embarrassing - he should get involved in gardening or something, , or take the grandchildren to the zoo.
