Former Beatle Paul McCartney played two shows on August 5 & 6 in Boston, and set the record for highest two-day attendance for any concert in the history of Fenway park. Not only that, but live Nation Boston's Dave Marsden commented, "No one in history has ever had 33 hits in one night at Fenway Park" - regarding McCartney's set list, which featured Beatles, Wings, and solo hits. His earlier shows at New York's Citi Field and DC's Fed Ex Field have also received rave reviews.
McCartney has three more dates for his summer 2009 U.S tour, including an August 15 show in Atlanta, one in Tulsa on August 17 (which sold out instantly), and a finale in Dallas on August 19. Due to overwhelming demand, Live Nation and AEG Live have announced that they will release additional seats for the August 19 concert. The Dallas show is not only the conclusion of the tour, but is also McCartney's first appearance in the city since 2005.
