Two music legends will be performing in upstate New York this summer — former Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.

The men are not singing together or even on the same stage, however both are scheduled to perform just days apart at different venues — McCartney in Syracuse and Starr in Ontario County.

McCartney announced on Friday that his latest tour will include a stop at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse on Saturday, June 4. The stop is part of his Got Back North American Tour, which starts in Washington state in April.

The tour also includes performances at Fenway Park in Boston, Oriole Park at Camden Yard in Baltimore and Met Life Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Pre-sale tickets begin at noon on Tuesday, Feb. 22, public sale of tickets begins at 10 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 25. Prices were not listed.

McCartney last played the Carrier Dome in 2017. Two years earlier he performed in Buffalo.

Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band will be performing at the Constellation Brands-Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center in Hopewell, Ontario County, at 7 p.m. Monday, May 30. CMAC announced its summer concert schedule earlier this month. His tour begins in Canada on May 27 and travels along the East Coast for two months. Tickets are currently on sale through Ticketmaster.com.

Ringo Starr and his All Starr Band performed at the DCU Center on June 11, 2016.
