Paul McCartney to Play Wrigley Field

Wrigley Field's recent status as a high-ticket outdoor concert destination continues. As expected, Paul McCartney will play the Friendly Confines July 31.

At last week's City Council meeting, 44th Ward Ald. Tom Tunney filed an ordinance on behalf of the Chicago National League Ballclub authorizing concerts at Wrigley Field on July 31 and August 1. Although the July 31 concert is confirmed, Tribune rock music critic Greg Kot believes a second show won't be announced until the first one sells out.

Tickets go on sale for the McCartney show June 20 at tickets.com. (Prices aren't available at this time, but do expect to fork out a good chunk of change.)

Boy...he just did not age well, did he? Have you ever seen the website that has pics of "aging men who look like old lesbians"? It's pretty funny...google it.

He would look much better if he didn't dye his hair, or, at least he needs to have some gray at the temples. The not-a-stitch-of-gray-hair, juxtaposed with his haggard-looking face, looks completely unnatural.

He looks fine for a 68-year old man. I don't know what you expect.

Although his hair style is admittedly questionable.

It's not that he looks horrible...but he started getting jowly and saggy really early. And when you look at pics of him when he was younger, he did have a certain amount of sex appeal. Some people just age better than others I guess..and yeah... in my opinion he should really stop using hair dye..it's not a good look.
