SAN ANTONIO – When Paul McCartney steps onto the Alamodome stage in San Antonio on October 25, it won\u2019t just be a concert \u2014 it\u2019ll feel more like a pilgrimage for many concertgoers. A cross-generational celebration of a living legend, whose songs still echo with love, memory, and the timeless power of music that truly means something.<\/p>\n
This marks the first time McCartney has performed in San Antonio since a 2014 benefit concert to open the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts.<\/p>\n
At 83, McCartney continues to tour internationally at a pace few of his contemporaries match. The Got Back tour, which began in 2022 with a run of U.S. dates, has since traveled through Latin America, Europe, and Australia. Last year alone, he performed more than 20 shows across multiple continents. <\/p>\n
Each night, he draws from a repertoire that spans six decades \u2014 from Beatles staples like \u201cHey Jude\u201d and \u201cLet It Be\u201d to Wings-era hits like \u201cBand on the Run\u201d and \u201cLive and Let Die,\u201d alongside selections from his solo catalog.<\/p>\n
In recent years, McCartney\u2019s live performances have been celebrated as both nostalgic and surprisingly vital. Billboard called the shows \u201ca bit of a religious experience,\u201d while Rolling Stone praised the singer\u2019s \u201cboyish energy\u201d and described the concerts as \u201ca joyful explosion.\u201d NPR wrote that McCartney\u2019s performance style remains \u201cfunny and fun,\u201d noting the effortless quality of his musicianship.<\/p>\n
Accompanying McCartney on the Got Back tour is his longtime band, featuring Paul \u201cWix\u201d Wickens on keyboards, Brian Ray on bass and guitar, Rusty Anderson on guitar, and Abe Laboriel.<\/p>\n
