Like with yesterday's announcement that, upon the completion of production details, more tickets were being released to the upcoming U2 show at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, today comes news that--again, upon the completion of "production details," whatever those are--more tickets are being released to Paul McCartney's Wednesday, August 19, gig at the spaceship.

Unlike with yesterday's U2 announcement, though, today's comes with explanation: "overwhelming demand." Well, hell, I should hope so.

The new tickets, which will be available at all price ranges originally set for the gig, will be released for sale to the public on Friday at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster outlets and through Live Nation.
