    Agree with you...McCartney is #1 on my list for shows to see. I had the chance to see him in 2009 at Citi Field and didn't. I want to get tickets for the Yankee Stadium show but I'm also waiting to see if he announces more dates.

    Hoping for a Hartford show or two!! :D:mrgreen:
    Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

    Hopefully no one. I've never got the chance to see Paul before, but he puts on a 3+ hour show so not sure if he has an opener or not? Any insight would be nice ;)

    Probably not. I don't think he had an opener for the Up and Coming Tour. He doesn't need an opener.

    Apparently Sir Paul is coming to my home town, REGINA, Saskatchewan as well, though no official announcement is expected until Friday. This will be great! My teenage daughter is a HUGE Beatles fan, while I tend to enjoy Wings a bit more.

    It's a pretty big deal to this city of 200, 000. The Stones played 2 sold-out shows here to 90 thousand people a couple of years ago...would be great if Paul did as well!

    Can't wait!

    I looked on the presale site (but I couldn't buy tix cause I don't have an AmEx card).
    Looks like nosebleeds are $30, uppers are $60, lower-uppers are $100.
    Anything main floor is $250 and up.

    Yeah, the service fees and "order processing fees" are a load of crap.
    I got one in section 218, row 13.
    Never seen a concert at Wrigley, went to see the Cubs a very long time ago...I'm guessing our seats shouldn't be bad. I'm pretty sure from people I've heard who have seen him before that he has screens up during the show.
