The US Tour was Paul McCartney's second North American concert tour of the 21st century to promote his 2005 album Chaos and Creation in the Backyard. The tour began on 16 September 2005 in Miami, Florida, and concluded on 30 November 2005 in Los Angeles, California. It was a commercial success, grossing $77 million from 37 shows across North America and selling over 565,000 tickets. Rusty Anderson, Brian Ray, Paul "Wix" Wickens, and Abe Laboriel Jr. returned as the backing band, the first to fully remain intact for more than one solo McCartney tour, following the previous year's summer jaunt in the UK. McCartney's then-wife Heather Mills and their daughter, Beatrice, accompanied him on the tour and were in the audience every night. On 12 November 2005 in Anaheim, California, two songs and some dialogue from the concert were broadcast to the International Space Station and astronauts Valeri Tokarev and Bill McArthur. The songs played were The Beatles' "Good Day Sunshine" and McCartney's "English Tea", a song from his Chaos and Creation in the Backyard album. A concert film and documentary of the tour was released the following year. It is available on the DVD The Space Within US.
