Milwaukee's annual summer music festival “Summerfest” usually
has its fair share music “legends”. This summer will be no different. The
legendary Paul McCartney will be coming to Summerfest and will headline the
Marcus Amphitheater on July 8. Reserve tickets for McCartney will
be available, all the way to the bleacher seats. For McCartney, this will be
his first performance in three years in Milwaukee, as he last played at Miller
Park in 2013. The Summerfest stop will be part of McCartney's “One on One”
tour, which will begin April 13 in Fresno, California and will end
on August 17 in Cleveland, Ohio. Stops in between will include
places like Vancouver, Minneapolis, Sioux Falls, Boston, Washington D.C., and
St. Louis. Songs expected to be played include A Hard Day's Night, Let Me Roll
It, I've Got A Felling, Here There and Everywhere, and Letting Go.
As many people know, McCartney got his start as the bassist
in the legendary rock group The Beatles. Together with George Harrison, John
Lennon, and Ringo Starr as the other three principal members, the group took
the world by storm in the 1960's and currently stand as one of the three
greatest selling music acts in history along with Elvis Presley and Garth
Brooks. Of the four, only Starr and McCartney are alive today. Since the
group's 1970 breakup, McCartney has gone on to a great solo career, releasing
17 solo albums to date, with the most recent being New, released in 2013. He
also recorded seven albums during the 1970's with the group Wings.
