Could it be so? Could the "once-in-a-lifetime event" that the CenturyLink Center is touting while playing coy be megastar Paul McCartney?

The CenturyLink on Friday announced a press conference for Tuesday morning to disclose the big coming event. The invitation's background featured a Union Jack, the British flag, which prompted much speculation. McCartney, the former Beatles and Wings star, was among the artists mentioned.

Now the popular website Bandsintown is showing a CenturyLink stop for McCartney . . . July 15. The Bossier City date is one of four McCartney concerts listed and the only one in the United States.

This is very random. Is North Louisiana ready to see the ticket prices for this show? Should be interesting.

I think Prince played Monroe three times in the early 80s and Garth played there 3 or 4 times.

Stones wanted to rent the Civic Center for a few days to rehearse before the '75 tour that started in BR. They were turned down due to being 'satanic'. That was also the reason why KISS never played Monroe when they were playing anywhere in the 70's.

when i saw him at American Airlines Center in Dallas I got a pretty good ticket that wasnt on the floor, but the next level up and it was center stage and that was $189, FWIW.

Yeah $100 is where I put the over under. This would mostly be for my 13 year old, I like Paul just fine but her Beatles stage is pretty big right now.
