Notes: After another small break Paul`s American tour continued with three concerts in Chicago. The first concert was held on December 3 and was covered by most local TV news shows.
The usual clips of "Figure of Eight" were usually featured.
Unusually Paul doesn`t seem to have done any TV interviews while in Chicago probably due to the TV show "48 Hours" having exclusive access for the first two days of his Chicago concerts.
CBS Channel 2 did a nice review with a live cross just before the end of the concert with a very excited reporter.
