The 10th concert of Paul McCartney’s Out There tour took place at the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
It was the second of two consecutive nights at the venue. McCartney had previously performed at the BOK Center on 17 August 2009.
During the show McCartney dedicated ‘I Saw Her Standing There’ to a girl who was celebrating her 17th birthday. The girl held up a sign to attract McCartney’s attention, received a shout-out during the show, and had a song performed for her in the first encore.
.@PaulMcCartney just gave a birthday shout out to a girl in the crowd named Charlotte. Happy 17th Charlotte! Your sign paid off!
