UPDATE: Due to overwhelming demand, Live Nation and the Frank Erwin Center have announced that Paul McCartney will play a second date in Austin on May 23. Tickets for the second show went on sale as of 10 am on April 12.
--
This time around, Austin won the bidding war to bring Sir Paul McCartney to Texas, sandwiched between tour dates in Brazil and Poland.
The "Out There" tour is bound to be as longwinded and successful as the last, "On the Run," which featured a stop in Houston and upwards of 40 tracks on the set list.
Though he's been a solo artist for 41 years, no one buys a Paul McCartney ticket wishing not to hear "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" or "Yesterday" — and the man pleases his fans with solo, Wings and The Beatles material.
The May 22 tour date will mark McCartney's first performance in Austin, and the capital city is sure to beg him to stick around and stay awhile after the show at the Frank Erwin Center.
Tickets go on sale April 12 at 10 a.m. at Livenation.com and TexasBoxOffice.com, but if you're an American Express cardholder, you can purchase tickets before the general public from April 9 at 10 a.m. through April 11 at 10 p.m.
Reason enough to open another credit card? No word on ticket price just yet, but it's bound to be hefty. That credit limit may come in handy.
Paul McCartney played Minute Maid Park in Houston in 2012.
Don Toliver will perform at the Toyota Center on Thursday, May 14.
Texas rapper Don Toliver head to Dallas for a show at the American Airlines Center on June 13.
The new concert is part of Toliver’s Octane Tour, a 30-city run through North America that begins in Orlando on May 8 and concludes in Denver on July 5. In addition to Dallas, the rapper will perform in his hometown of Houston on May 14 and San Antonio on June 14.
He’ll be joined on all three Texas dates by by SahBabii, SoFaygo, and Chase B.
Toliver is touring in support of Octane, his fifth studio album that was released last month and debuted at No. 1 on both Spotify and Apple Music. Recorded during Toliver’s European tour and at sessions in California, Octane is inspired by Toliver’s love of cars and rally racing culture, according to press materials.
A Houston native, Toliver is also known for tracks such as certified platinum singles “No Pole” and “Private Landing” featuring Justin Bieber, along with multi-platinum hits including “No Idea,” “After Party,” “Lemonade,” and “Bandit.”
Along with the tour announcement, Toliver has unveiled the video for Rendezvous, a track he recorded with Yeat.
Tickets are on sale to the general public as of Friday, February 6 at LiveNation.com.
Various VIP packages are also available, including early entry and access to a pre-show VIP lounge. Find those details at vipnation.com.
