Paul McCartney: ‘There are currently no forthcoming gigs confirmed.’ (2018)
Guess the tour page on his website didn't get the memo about the Austin City Limits Festival. ; )

That's the word on the street.

Yeah, it's never Keith's fault...

It was all fixed within a minute and then they got going again. I was there and it didn't bother me in the slightest. If anything, I found it quite entertaining in itself. It shows they're human, the music they play is really live and not some synthesised artificial rubbish. The fact that they recovered so quickly shows they can think on their feet and quickly fix, even in front of 60,000+ people.

But if a guitar has a complete and unexpected tuning, it's damn hard to get it right, believe me.

Keith is in charge of starting many songs. He is tuned up to max and the moment he is touching his guitar strings he is on and all over the stadium. He also shift out and in guiters on many songs, so everything is supposd to be like a clockwork. Still, I am surprised this kind of stuff do not happen more often.
I do a lot of cross country biking, and due to the volume ogf biking, the number of hours I bike, and the risk level, I do have one accident every year. Some times I damage a couple of fingers, other times I get scratches on my legs, or I am close to crashing into a tree. If you do not take any risk, there is no fun. I like it when Keith do shift songs fast and don't waste time testing guitars playing it safe. No harm done.
It is not a goal or a Key Performance Indicator to deliver a show with no glitches or false starts or any kinds of issues. What is important is the Wide Smile Level Indicator. And the Total Happiness Indicator. They were both peaking for me in Cardiff, so thank you Stones, thank you Keith, thanks to the entire band and crew, you made a show I will remember for a long time.[/quo
Hi BV i too do a lot of cross country biking and hiking, i agree, actually i would go so far to say i am always carrying some kind of injury as a result of my passions.
What amazes me is that at the age of 75 Mick holds onto this incredible standard of fitness but never once appears to carry an injury, not a sprained ankle or a limp of any kind. Not one slip or trip onstage in all these years.
Year after year tour after tour, no physical injury, at his age its unique.
I would love for Mick to make a health and fitness book of some kind, it's a pity he doesn't share his methods with the rest of us. He just says i do a bit of Ballet or Palates, but i think there is a bit more than that to how he keeps that body so young.
If you watch him this tour he throws and thrusts himself into the music and his movements totally belie his age. He is risking physical injury with every move but throws caution to the wind. Just incredible, an inspiration to us all, age is just a number .

Yes, he is totally amazing and I would love to know just what he does. Clearly, he is also doing some work with weights. Those arms!!!!!
