The British–American rock bandWings was Paul McCartney's post-Beatles band who were active from 1971 to 1981. Their primary line-up was McCartney, his wifeLinda and guitaristDenny Laine, formerly ofthe Moody Blues. Throughout their years as a band, they embarked on a number of concert tours, varying in scale from their initial "DIY" tour of British universities to the epicWings Over the World tour.

Shortly after forming Wings, the McCartneys took the band on an impromptu tour of theUnited Kingdom'suniversities in early 1972, showing up unannounced and performing for whoever happened to be on campus. The band's intended first stop on the tour,Ashby-de-la-Zouch, refused to allow them to play, so the band moved on to the more receptiveUniversity of Nottingham. Admission to the first show was£0.50, proceeds being split up equally among the band members.

The lastConcert for the People of Kampuchea on 29 December 1979, which was the final date of Wings' fifth tour, was Wings' final gig.

However, Wings achieved notoriety for its aborted sixth tour, a January 1980 tour of Japan, which was cancelled before it even started when Paul McCartney was arrested for possession of marijuana while entering Japan on 16 January 1980 and was eventually deported on 25 January after nine days in prison, without Wings ever performing. Wings never again attempted a tour prior to their breakup in 1981.
