Pioneertown got its own version of Beatlemania when Paul announced he would play at Pappy & Harriet’s Thursday. The concert was announced at 10 a.m. on Paul’s website and Pappy & Harriet’s social media accounts. Within hours, thousands of people were milling around the dirt lot and winding road by Pappy & Harriet’s, hoping to get one of the 300 tickets scheduled to go on sale at 6:30 p.m. (Tickets cost $50 each, cash only).
As people continued to pour into Pioneertown, the venue’s original plan not to allow anyone to line up until 3 p.m. wasn’t working.
Some of the earliest people to arrive started to form their own line, and the first 300 people got markers indicating they would be able to buy their concert tickets when they went on sale.

Around 2,000 people were waiting outside the saloon by 2 p.m. Trying to prevent worse traffic or disturbances, the CHP made an announcement telling everyone who hadn’t gotten one of the 300 markers to leave.
Paul is in the area for the Desert Trip music festival at the Empire Polo Club in Indio starring classic rockers like the Who, the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. Paul played 8 Oct. and will return 15 oct.
