PAUL McCARTNEY TO GET BACK ‘OUT THERE’ IN OCTOBER
FIVE NEW NORTH AMERICAN DATES CONFIRMED
October 13: Columbus, Ohio — Nationwide Arena
October 15: State College, Pennsylvania — Bryce Jordan Center
October 17: Toronto, Canada — Air Canada Centre
October 21: Detroit, Michigan — Joe Louis Arena
October 22: Buffalo, New York — First Niagara CenterFresh off an undeniably historic headline performance at this year’s Lollapalooza hailed without exception as the biggest and best in the festival’s 25 year history, Paul McCartney has confirmed five new North American arena dates on the universally acclaimed ‘Out There’ tour.
First, Paul will return to Columbus, OH nearly 10 years to the day since his last appearance in the Ohio capital city to headline the Nationwide Arena on October 13. On October 15, Paul will play his first ever show in State College, PA at the Bryce Jordan Center. October 17 will see Paul back at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre for the first time since 2010 on the ‘Up And Coming’ Tour, followed by an October 21 in Detroit, MI — Paul’s first appearance at the Joe Louis Arena and his first visit to the Motor City since 2011 on the ‘On The Run’ Tour. Finally, Paul will make his concert debut in Buffalo, NY on October 22 at the First Niagara Center.
From The Buffalo News, October 23, 2015:
It was a concert that was five decades in the making. It was worth the wait. Despite the 50-plus years that Paul McCartney has been one of the most revered figures in popular music, he had never played Buffalo until Thursday night, when he performed before an adoring crowd of more than 16,000 in First Niagara Center. Waiting for their first opportunity gave his Western New York fans plenty of time to get fired up. And fired up they were, gobbling up every available ticket within minutes. […]
Song after song after song McCartney played are part of the fabric of our lives. There was no bad song. The reaction of the audience was astounding. People wiped their eyes and clutched their chests as much as they clapped and sang along.
This concert in Buffalo was the very last one of the “Out There” tour, which began on May 4, 2013 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
This was the 1st and only concert played at First Niagara Center.
