Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's an evening with Sir Paul.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Eighty three to go.
Speaker 3 (00:03):
But tickets are probably going to be million, seven hundred
dollars for sitting outside is parking offously just to be near.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
The building where he's said it'll be, it'll be stupid.
I can't imagine what it cost Nationwide Arena to book
Paul McCartney in there. They only have so many seats
that they can fill. I think twenty thousand is sold
the hell out if you get to even twenty thousand,
and I don't know that they'll have seats behind him.
(00:30):
He's not going to be in the round, so I
you know what I mean. I I although maybe they
do that. You would think that he would book a
couple nights in a row.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
I think that's exactly what I thought when I heard
he was coming. That that venue is we all of Ohio,
I mean Cleveland, Cincinnati. People would come from all over
to nation Wide Arena. He could probably sell out a
week's worth of shows there if he wanted to.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Yeah, he just turned eighty three last month. He had
a June I think it was fifteenth as his birthday
something like that.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
It was reason still looks like a bat Well.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
And so the diminished Is this a diminished Paul McCartney
And is it better than because let's face it, he's
and I'm not wishing that he would die, but you know,
he's in the back nine of his life slash career.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
His voice is not nearly as strong as it was
just a couple of years ago. But it's Paul McCarthy
exactly on stage, exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
The Beatle, like the Beatle, you know, he's it.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Just FYI. The tickets at the very nosebleed sections are
four hundred and thirty bucks and they quickly go up
to well over one thousand.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, okay, I can't afford that.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I mean, there's no no possible way that I would
love to see this guy, but there's no way I
would spend that kind of money on those tickes.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
What do you mean on floor one?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
In floor two, they're fourteen to fifteen grand mmmm grand?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, or one hundred, no grand, fourteen to fifteen thousand
dollars a seat.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
The blood ticket floor to row a thirteen six and
fourteen dollars old.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
So there must be okay, so they're paying him that,
and think about it. If you're Paul McCartney. You're eighty three.
What an inconvenience it is for you to tour at
this point? And I'm putting words in his mouth. I
didn't read him saying that. But when you're eighty three,
there are a lot of different things that you have
(02:23):
to deal with. And if you're eighty three, if you're
seventy three, even sixty three, depending, you might be going, yeah,
tell me about it. And I'm just talking about in
your daily life. Imagine trying to be on the road
during that. I know it's just all the health things.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
I thought a chance to actually interview him because I
have a feeling, just a gut feeling. He probably loves it.
He did a great photo display. I don't know if
he saw this or not. They displayed it up in
New York City, but it was black and white photos
that he had taken during the Beatles first US tour.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Of the crowd, oh boy, of the piazzle. It just
his eyes. Think of looking at the people who were
looking at them.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Think about how many Think about how many people in
those photos are no longer on it right? A lot
of those people are no longer with us. Isn't that
crazy to think? About out of the thousands and thousands
of people, you got a very small percentage who are
probably even still breathing. And my point with where I
was going with that, with Paul and his age and
(03:25):
touring and so for him to think about the type
of money that gets him lathery, it's got.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
To be crazy and ring goes out.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
So that's why it costs thirteen thousand dollars for a ticket,
because I'm sure he's getting a million dollars a show
or whatever it is something dumb, well not quite a million,
but he's probably getting I mean, the tour is gonna
and the guys stop needing money. How long ago?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Oh forever? Yeah, so forever.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
But it's got to be a love.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Ringo is doing a tour now too. I think he's
doing thirty five cities if I'm not mistaken. His are
thirteen dollars and they're much cheaper thirty which you would
think Paul might give him a little taste, you know, Ringo,
won don't you joined up with me?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Come on?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
But it's he goes.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
You're eighty three. They work together still.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
A lot of the time, I know, But if you're Ringo,
you're going no, I'm not gonna acquiesced them. That's I guarantee.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Just come play drums and then when Paul needs to
go take a break for a while, you can do
your sixteen.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
You're beautiful in your mind.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Oh wait, I was just doing George Harrison. That my
I got my mind set on you. That wasn't Ringo.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
George, and George didn't have a son, did he.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I don't know see that. That would be so cool.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
If Ringo was sitting at the drum set and Julian
Lennon came out to play with Paul, I would literally
pee myself.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Oh geez, that would oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Yeah, oh my, oh my gosh, that's right. Then you'd
wake up because that will that'll be a dream. It
will never happen.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Julian was like John came back man, I just and
in his career was so short musically, he went into
other stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Tickets go on sale July eighteenth at ten am. Pre
sales starts same time on July fifteenth. Part of pre sale,
they're doing limited VIP packages, reserve seating, access to sound check.
You gotta have an enormous bank account to be buying
any of those tickets.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Gee, we're gonna need four on the main four. Can
you handle that for me, Mark.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Yeah, take care of that.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
We'll get you back, got it, no problem.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah, some other notable. He's going to be in Nashville
this fall. Tennis seat Nashville in November sixth, Pittsburgh November eleventh,
a couple of shows in Chicago. Oh, sure, do two
in Chicago, but not us. Only the one show here again,
that'll be when is that?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh, November eighthills out in like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
He may end up adding shows. Let's hope that happens.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, could be because people are going to look at
this the way I was just kind of framing it,
which is, this is probably the last time he's going
to tour, even though he's not calling it farewell and
it might not be his choosing, but this is probably
I don't know how many more, how many more of
these tours does he have left in him?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
This is it, And she's got a bit.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
You heard him playing in New York like six months ago,
where he was doing the little stopping at local clubs,
and his voice just isn't there anymore. This is just
for the thrill of seeing the beatle,
It's an evening with Sir Paul.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
