More About Paul McCartney

As the late, great George Harrison once said while accepting an award, "It certainly didn't hurt my career to have been a Beatle". Paul McCartney could say the same thing. As one fourth of The Beatles and one half of the incomparable songwriting team of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, he became a world wide superstar in 1963. Although The Beatles broke up in 1970, McCartney went on to form another chart-topping band, Wings. The Real Thing Paul McCartney not only knows how to write a hit song, but has an electric stage presence. Fans appreciate his high energy, genuineness and willingness to risk mistakes onstage. There's no lip-synching at a Paul McCartney show. Emphasis is on musicality and bringing the songs to life – no scantily-clad dancers and cheap special effects here. He also is an accomplished pianist and is perhaps the most famous left-handed guitar player alive today. His solo albums have been met with a mixture of praise and scorn, but McCartney never listened to critics or to record labels pressing him to go with current musical fads, such as rap music. Although fans may not like all of his songs or even own all of his albums, they do love Paul McCartney for his willingness to not compromise when it comes to his music. On The Road Again For over 40 years, Paul McCartney tickets have been a hot commodity, whether he was part of a group or touring solo.

Tickets to a Paul McCartney concert are treasures for the experience of seeing one of the world's best entertainers. Many fans keep the ticket stubs with them for years after the concerts as prized mementos of witnessing a true living legend of pop and rock music. Although officially Sir Paul McCartney after having been knighted, he still prefers to be called "Paul".
