Sir Paul rocking out 2009 with a European tour
The unstoppable Sir Paul McCartney will close 2009 on a bang, announcing the Good Evening Europe tour.
Sir Paul, 67, said: “This is my chance to bring our current show home to where it all began. Starting in Hamburg, ending in London and rocking everywhere in between. I’m very much looking forward to ending the year on a high.”
The tour will comprise seven dates and commence in the German city of Hamburg, where the Beatles played. Shows in the cities of Berlin, Arnhem, Paris, Dublin and Cologne will follow before a London concert at the O2 on December 22 – 46 years since the Beatles played their first Christmas show at Liverpool’s Empire Theatre.
David Campbell, chief executive of AEG Europe, owners and operators of the O2, said: “Since we opened over two years ago, Paul McCartney has been the dream act. I am absolutely thrilled that dream has now become a reality and this true British musical icon will play the building. It doesn’t get much better than this.”
