Sir Paul McCartney is planning world domination in the form of a massive farewell tour, according to reports. His next tour, with 100 shows spreading over two years' time, will be the Beatle’s last major musical outing, if the rumors are to be believed. McCartney, who turns 66 this month, plans to spend more time with his family, especially four-year-old daughter Beatrice.

According to a source in British newspaper the Sunday Mirror, “Paul explained that this tour will be the last big one. He wants to settle down and enjoy Beatrice's childhood.

"The tour will be the last time he performs in many parts of the world.”

The trek is scheduled to kick off in fall of this year, and McCartney is expected to net over $100 million, which translates to at least $1 million per gig. Dates will be released in a few weeks, with shows covering Europe, Australia, South America, North America and Asia. 

This farewell jaunt will be McCartney’s most extensive tour since he performed 108 shows in the United States, Europe, Japan and Brazil in 1989 and 1990. 

Beatrice, McCartney’s daughter with ex-wife Heather Mills, is expected to join her father for parts of the tour, as is his new flame, American socialite Nancy Shevell, 48.

Please come to the Maritimes(Canada)!? I've only seen your concerts on DVD and I'd love to see it live! Your music is amazing and I'm sure that many MANY others agree with me.
..Please?! haha. I was suppose to go to another concert this summer but I changed my mind as soon as I heard that you might be coming to a close-by city but was devestated to hear that it was a no-go afterall.
We would be thrilled to see you here.
Your music is wonderful.
A crazed fan,
Me :)

Happy Birthday Sir Paul! I have enjoyed your music ever since I was old enough to listen to it..........your music is timeless and I hope you will include Halifax in your final farewell tour.

There is so much beauty in your music, it would be wonderful if you could come share it with those of us in Nova Scotia.

I feel a bit of a special connection as me mum is also from the north of England, not quite Liverpool but close,(Manchester).

God bless and I hope to see you in Halifax!

I have loved, truly LOVED, Paul McCartney most of my life! I've seen him several times in concert but I must see him in this farewell concert, hopefully in Chicago or St. Louis. In 1993 I was blessed to have seen him in Milwaukee, WI with 3rd row, center seats. My good friend and I made a poster referring to his birthday and his love of pickle and cheese sandwiches and he gave us a thumbs up sign!! I will be truly sad if I don't get to see him again so I would love to know when tickets go on sale and for when and where.

I've been listning to your music pretty much ever since i was born...im only 17 but it is my DREAM to see paul mccartney live. that would be the greatest thing to ever happen. Please please please come to chicago or near there!!!!!

Anyone know if he's coming to Canada, Ontario?
And, is this a concert that needs tickets?
Last gigs he did, were free.
Help anyone? :)

Sir Paul
Any chance of a Western Canada Tour Calgary/Edmonton?. Elton and Neil have been here why not Sir Paul?
Your one of the best in the world and put on the best concert anyone will ever see . Your music is timeless and stirs emotions in anyones heart.
Lots of Fans here in Western Canada

Cheers
Ross


Sir Paul. I´m 42 and always has been your fa. I saw you in Mexico in 1993.
Please come again. Please make an official statemente with dates of your new Tour.
You are awesome.
Please dont´t ever stop make good music. Never.
Queretaro. Mexico

How the heck do i get tickets for this?

Paul, if this is your last concert, perhaps you may want to consider going to a place you've never played before...China. You and the Beatles have conquered the world. You might as well play at the world's most populated country.

Sir Paul, i'm just 18 but I really love your music. If it's your last tour, I guess it's my last opportunity to go to a Beatle concert. So please come to Barcelona, we're waiting for you and your music!
kisses
Helena

Sir Paul, please come back to Chile!!

I can´t believe you are coming to Argentina!!!!!!! It´S a dream come true.
You are part of my family as I grew uP listening to your music!

We all love you and hope to have you here ASAP!!

Dear Sir Paul McCartney,


I live in PA, USA and my uncle's sister's husband works for a major concert company and i'm wondering if by any chance u could contact him

His name is Michael Belkin,

Your unknown friend

C. J. C.

I think I'm talking for all Peruvians.
We heard that Paul is willing to play here. We hope this rumour is right.
We will be glad to have him here, to take him to Macchu Picchu, invite him a delicious Pisco Sour, enjoy our weather, and show him the warm hearts of all our peruvian people.
Peru is so close to Argentina, Chile or Brasil.
Please come here this final time!!!
You won't be sorry!!!
All our best regards to you!!!
