Sir Macca is coming. It's been 24 years since the living legend graced Australian shores, but he'll be back from December 2 to 11, playing Nib Stadium Perth on December 2, AAMI Park, Melbourne on December 5, Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane on December 5 and Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney on December 11.
The singer made the announcement via a Facebook Live interview with Tim Minchin. He also answered a series of fan questions. Here's what Time Out New York have said about Sir Paul McCartney's One On One tour:
"To an extent, you know what you’re gonna get from a Paul McCartney show: total professionalism from one of the most gifted and agreeable musicians of the last hundred years. But does that account for the moment Macca comes onstage, you realize you’re looking at a Beatle, and you forget to breathe? Or the grizzled sonics of his genuinely rocking young band? It does not. This is truly must-see viewing, take our word for it."
Sounds worth it, right? If so, write Tuesday July 4 in your diary and triple underline it. That's the date tickets will go on sale. Check out the Frontier touring website for further details.
