Paul McCartney is eternally young.
The “cute” Beatle turns 82 tomorrow and he’s just announced new stadium dates.
McCartney will play South America this fall, then head to Europe for shows in France, Spain, and England. He already did a bunch of dates last fall in South America and Australia.
Remember, this isn’t like the Rolling Stones, where at least four people are the main focus. With McCartney, it’s all him for three hours.
The Stones actually played a tight two hour set on this current tour. But McCartney has so many hits, from the Beatles and his solo career, that three hours is nothing.
What’s the secret? No meat, a little pot, some meditation, a strong family.
Oh wait — I forgot to mention his fabulous “One Hand Clapping” album out right now. It’s a gem, a collection of live studio recordings made in 1974. These are now my favorite versions of those songs.
