Paul McCartney concert chronology

Out There! Tour is the name of a world tour by Paul McCartney that started on 4 May 2013.[1] Following the announcements that McCartney will play at Warsaw's National Stadium,[2] Verona's Roman Ampitheatre,[3] and Vienna's Happel Stadium in June,[4] for the first time since 2003's Back in the World tour.[4] He will be playing in Belo Horizonte, Goiânia and Fortaleza, all in Brazil – his first time playing in all three cities.[1] He will be playing in Japan for the first time since the Driving World Tour back in 2002.

Background

The first official show announced for this tour was the Warsaw show. In this announcement, a statement stated that the "Out There! Tour" will "see McCartney and his band travel the world throughout the year, even visiting some places they've never been before."[2] At the press conference for the Brazilian shows, the manager of the Brazilian leg explained that the "Out There! Tour" will feature a new lighting rig, a platform to carry McCartney into the audience, and new songs into McCartney's live repertoire.[5] The tour's announcement was taken at an unusual pace. Rather than announcing the full tour in bulk, each show was announced individually at different dates and times. This gave each venue an opportunity to be exposed in the spotlight. The production was teased in rehearsal photos leaked online, and later released on McCartney's website before the first show in Brazil. These photos displayed elements of the production including a scissor-lift platform that carried McCartney six metres (20 feet) into the air, and the use of laser lights. The first show revealed new video graphics and a stage floor consisting of illuminated LED panels.

In South America

McCartney being swarmed with Grasshoppers in Goiania.

After much success in Latin America during the Up and Coming and On The Run tours, a petition was started in the town of Belo Horizonte for McCartney to perform in the city. An announcement from PaulMcCartney.com listed three Brazilian shows to begin his 2013 tour.[1] The tour started on 4 May 2013 in Belo Horizonte and continue to Goiania and Fortaleza. This marks his first time performing in all three cities. McCartney was greeted on arrival with billboards across the town of Belo Horizonte welcoming him to the city. Fans were camped outside of the stadium for days to earn a good spot for his show. On the first night, McCartney played several Beatles' songs live for the first time, including "Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite" and "All Together Now".[6] This show was performed to a sold out crowd of 55,000 fans.[7] As a sign of appreciation during "Hey Jude", fans held up signs that read "Thank You" to McCartney after responding to their petition. At the next show in Goiania, the stage was swarmed with grasshoppers.[8] The Esperanca Grilo, which translates to the Hope Grasshopper, swarmed the stage, equipment, and even the band and crew during the show. McCartney even made notation of the grasshoppers during "Hey Jude," as he sang the line "The movement you need is on your shoulder," turning to his shoulder, singing to the grasshoppers.

In Europe

The first announcement of a show for McCartney's 2013 tour came on 20 March 2013. With the headline "Paul McCartney Is Getting 'Out There!'" a performance was listed for Warsaw, Poland at the Stadion Narodowy.[2] This performance on 22 June 2013 will mark McCartney's first ever performance in the country of Poland. In the hours following this announcement, a second European show for Vienna, Austria was listed for 27 June 2013.[4] This concert at the Ernst Happel Stadion will be his fourth ever concert in Vienna and his first since 2003 during the Back in the World tour. A third European show for 2013 was announced on 26 March 2013, to take place at the Arena di Verona in Verona, Italy for his first Verona performance.[3]

In North America

McCartney commanding a sea of fans at Bonnaroo 2013.

McCartney's first live information for 2013 was announced on 19 February 2013. In a special webcast announcing the 2013 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, McCartney was confirmed as a headliner of the festival in Manchester, Tennessee.[9] McCartney's specific date and set time was announced 1 May 2013. McCartney took the stage for this performance on 14 June 2013, with a two and a half hour set. Following the announcements of shows in Europe and South America, and Bonnaroo, a show for Boston's Fenway Park was announced for 9 July 2013.[10] This will be his first show at Fenway Park since two performances there in 2009. Following the Boston date are shows in Austin, Texas at the Frank Erwin Center for McCartney's Austin debut, Washington, DC for his first performance at Nationals Park, a return to the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[11][12] Shortly after the previous announcements came the confirmation of his first performances in Memphis, Tennessee and Orlando, Florida since his 1993 New World Tour, at the FedExForum and Amway Center respectively.[13][14] A performance for Seattle's Safeco Field was added to the tour, marking the first major performance at the park.[15]

McCartney also played at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana on 14 July 2013.[16] Due to popular demand, a second show was booked for Orlando, Austin, and Tulsa. A much rumored show at Miller Park in Milwaukee was confirmed on 15 April 2013.[17] This 16 July performance was his first show in Milwaukee since 2005, and his first concert at Miller Park. In a video released on 16 April 2013 by the Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival, McCartney was named as a headliner of the festival.[18] It was later announced on 24 June that McCartney would headline on Friday, 9 August 2013. This will be his first performance in California since his 2010 performance at AT&T Park in San Francisco.

On 18 April 2013, it was announced that McCartney would take the stage for the first time at the Barclays Center in New York City on 8 June and 10 June for a return to New York since his highly successful Yankee Stadium shows in 2011 and the 12-12-12: The Concert for Sandy Relief appearance.[19] With mostly American dates announced, in mid April, McCartney announced his first Canadian dates of 2013. Shows at the Investors Group Field in Winnipeg, Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field in Regina, and the Scotiabank Place (to be renamed "Canadian Tire Centre" days prior to the show) in Ottawa were all announced on 22 April 2013, just hours appart from each other.[20] This is to be McCartney's first performances in Ottawa and Regina, and a return to Winnipeg since 1993. On 25 April 2013, McCartney announced a return to the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City from his concert celebrating the city's 400th anniversary.[21] The show was played on 23 July 2013.

Many shows on the tour had anomalies from the average stage show, making them highlights. The first show in Orlando featured "Hope of Deliverance" in the set which was played in the prior Brazil leg of the tour. This was the only time the song was performed in North America this year as it was usually replaced by either "I've Just Seen a Face" or "Things We Said Today" for the remainder of the tour. The second night in Orlando saw the tour debut of "I Saw Her Standing There" in place of "Get Back". These two songs would usually alternate between shows. At Bonnaroo, which was the largest attendance crowd on the tour, McCartney performed "Midnight Special" because of lyrics referring to nearby Nashville. The show in Ottawa brought the tour debuts of the songs "Michelle" and "Mull of Kintyre" to the setlist. "Mull of Kintyre" was performed with the full Ottawa Police Service Pipe Band. In Seattle, McCartney brought onstage the remaining members of Nirvana - Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, plus their touring musician Pat Smear - to perform their collaborative effort "Cut Me Some Slack" from Grohl's movie Sound City. The three continued onstage with McCartney and the band to finish the encore, which included the first performance of "Long Tall Sally" since 1986.[22] "Birthday" was performed for the first time on the tour at the Plains of Abraham show, which also featured "Michelle". At Outside Lands, McCartney replaced "All My Loving" with "Magical Mystery Tour" early in the show. He also performed "San Francisco Bay Blues" and dedicated that song to both "Shelly" and the city of San Francisco. During the encore, McCartney brought the Kronos Quartet, who had already performed with The National earlier in the day, onstage with him and Wickens to perform "Yesterday". "Mull of Kintyre" at the next show in Winnipeg was performed with the City of Winnipeg Police Pipe Band.

In Japan

Almost exactly 11 years to the day since McCartney last embarked on a run of shows in Japan during the Driving World Tour, November 2013 will see him bring his all new Out There! Tour to Japan to play five shows in Osaka, Fukuoka and Tokyo.[23] The news was announced on 16 July 2013 on his official website. As the Osaka date and venue is "To Be Announced" the tour will go to the Fukuoka Dome on 15 November. A run of shows at the Tokyo Dome will follow taking place on 18, 19, 21 November.
