McCartney Set to Rock Israel

Posted by Janice Bryant On September - 2 - 2008

This month Paul McCartney will be performing in Tel Aviv. Forty three years ago the Israeli government banned the Beatles from playing, stating that the group’s amplified and strident music could corrupt Israeli youth morals, according to Haaretz, an Israeli news site.

Reportedly last week the concert was confirmed by McCartney’s manager Barry Marshall. The venue was approved even though it doesn’t meet the performer’s requirements of having 250,000 seats. McCartney will be performing at Park Hayarkon on September 25.

It is expected that the current world tour for McCartney will be the last large scale tour for him. According to the Sunday Mirror, McCartney would like to settle down so he can spend time with Beatrice, his daughter.
