Paul McCartney Postpones U.S. Tour Dates Due to Ill Health

Paul McCartney has had to postpone some tour dates on the orders of his doctor.

As reported by ultimateclassicrock.com, Paul has had to push back the kick off of the tour as well as some other dates due to a viral infection.

“I’m sorry but it’s going to be a few more weeks before we get rocking in America again,” he said in a press release. “I’m feeling great but taking my docs’ advice to take it easy for just a few more days. Look forward to seeing you all soon.”

His ‘Out There’ tour was scheduled to begin June 14 in Lubbock, TX, but he'll now begin the run of dates on July 5th in Albany, NY, and six other dates have been rescheduled for October.

Last month, Paul had to cancel an entire stretch of dates in Japan and South Korea when he contracted an unnamed virus on the eve of the tour, which caused him to be hospitalized for nearly a week (those concerts have yet to be rescheduled).

Of course, we have your chance to see Paul in concert August 7th in Salt Lake City, Utah with a fantastic trip for our Mile High Club Members, and that date hasn't been affected by Paul's illness.
