CHICAGO (CBS) — Paul McCartney could be headed to Chicago this summer for two concerts at Wrigley Field.

The Sun-Times reports that the former Beatle may play at Wrigley on July 31 and Aug. 1

The Cubs are on the road during that time, and those dates are not listed on McCartney’s tour right now.

The last time McCartney performed in a Chicago baseball park was in 1965, when the Beatles played at old Comiskey Park.

Wrigley has played host to several concerts in the past, including Jimmy Buffett, The Police, Billy Joel, Elton John and the Dave Matthews Band.

The sentence should have said that the last time he played in a Chicago BALLPARK was 1965. Story has been corrected and we are wiping egg off faces.
