Video: 'Paul McCartney & Wings - Wild Life (Newcastle, July 1973)'

(Tuesday, July 10, 1973, approximately 9:30 p.m. British Summer Time, following the 8:00 p.m. BST scheduled start time for opening act English pub rock band Brinsley Schwarz; during the Wings 1973 UK Tour) — Paul McCartney’s British-American band Wings performed tonight at City Hall in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, on the 18th and last stop and the 21st and last performance of his Wings 1973 UK Tour.

It was the the final stop and final performance of the band’s 16-city, 21-show tour of England, the largest tour yet for Wings.

Unlike the surprise appearances of the previous year’s Wings University Tour and the spontaneous nature of the follow-up Wings Over Europe Tour, here the tour was announced in a more normal fashion and fans could buy tickets ahead of time.

It would turn out be the last Wings show for guitarist Henry McCullough and drummer Denny Seiwell, both of whom would leave the band the following month. The band’s next tour would begin on Sept. 9, 1975, with two new members: guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and drummer Joe English.

Before tonight’s show, Paul and Linda McCartney were interviewed for the July 11, 1973, edition of BBC’s northern nightly news program Look North.
