Vegetarian cooking ain't cheap. As Paul McCartney preps his concert this weekend in Phoenix, Ariz, promoters are shelling out $7,000 for a mobile kitchen that can churn out the same quality food five-star restaurants can. KTAR in Phoenix reports that McCartney's team has to ensure 100 crew members get fed, which shouldn't be a problem, since the kitchen they're renting can handle 6,000 people. And since you can't to be too careful on the road, McCartney brings his own chefs. He's even looking to get his own mobile kitchen to take on the road sometime in the near future.
McCartney's latest studio album was 2007's 'Memory Almost Full,' although he released a live album last year called 'Good Evening, New York City,' which culled material over his three-night run at New York's Citi Field, a nod to the Beatles' classic 1965 performance at Shea Stadium. After this Phoenix gig, McCartney's 'Up and Coming' Tour includes only a few more stateside shows. From there, he heads back to the homeland, where he'll headline a few shows this June, including London's Hyde Park on June 27.
