The emotions surrounding this tour are complex. For some, it will be pure celebration: a chance to sing along with a legend who has never stopped giving. For others, it will carry the bittersweet awareness that this could truly be the last time McCartney embarks on a journey of this scale. Either way, it is certain to be remembered as one of the most significant tours of the decade.
McCartney’s Got Back Tour has always been about more than music. It is about endurance, about memory, about the ability of songs to outlast their singers. At 83, his voice may carry the wear of years, but in that weathering lies a beauty all its own — a reminder that art is not diminished by age, but enriched by it.
This isn’t just another tour. It is a pilgrimage — one last chorus led by a Beatle who refuses to let the music fade. And when the lights dim in Chicago on November 28, it will not feel like an ending. It will feel like a promise fulfilled: that music, when it is honest and timeless, truly can outlive us all.
