VIDEO : Paul McCartney Says Custody Battle Led to His Newfound Love of Touring

Paul McCartney says he likes touring on the road these days, with a few months on, a few months off. Last year was his 27-date Out There Tour, and now he's traveling the U.S. for One on One, playing marathon sets of solo songs and Beatles classics. McCartney and his band will be on the road through the summer and early fall, closing with two Saturdays in Indio, California, on October 8th and 15th as part of Desert Trip, the classic-rock cousin to Coachella. His current touring pattern was initially forced on him during a custody battle over his youngest daughter, Beatrice Milly, requiring him to be close to home. He could only schedule brief runs of concerts on the road. McCartney told Rolling Stone Magazine that actually turned out to be great because it meant that he'd get time off. The enforced break led to him being hungry--and happy-- to get back onstage.
