The Space Within Us - A&E Press Release

Paul McCartney: The Space Within Us to Present Record-Breaking, Critically Hailed 2005 'US' Tour in Concert Special Made for DVD and Television

Never Before Released Concert and Behind the Scenes Footage Featured in October 28th A&E Television Special and on A&E Home Video DVD Release to Hit Stores November 14th


On Friday, September 16th, 2005, Miami's American Airlines Arena played host to Paul McCartney. It marked the opening of an all-new, totally sold-out, concert tour that highlighted yet more Beatles, Wings and solo music. It didn't take long for the 11-week, 34 show 'US' Tour to became the hottest concert ticket in America. As a matter of fact, by the time the tour hit the road there wasn't a seat available to the public. Those who were lucky enough to get a ticket heard Wings classics like "Too Many People," "Maybe I'm Amazed" and "Live And Let Die," Beatles classics "Magical Mystery Tour," "Good Day Sunshine," "Fixing A Hole," and "Helter Skelter" and music from Paul's solo career including "Fine Line," and "Jenny Wren." The 'US' Tour set list contained songs that had either never been performed on American soil before and others that hadn't been played live in nearly 15 years.
On Tuesday, November 14th Paul McCartney: The Space Within US will be released on DVD. The release, which will coincide with a one-hour A&E television special to air on Saturday, October 28th, will not only give those who missed US a better than front row seat to the concert, but will also bring those who were in the audience for the groundbreaking concert tour, behind the scenes.
