RE: Paul @ London 100 Club, Friday, 17 Dec, 12.30 pm - ARCHIVE
I thought i'd have the same expierience seeing The Sex Pistols but i didn't. Iggy Pop on the other hand... The point i'm making is that performances do it for me, i've never been a great one for just being awestruck. Although having said that i'll probably be screaming like an 8 yr old girl at a Beatles gig when i see Paul tommorow Some shit is just too immense. I want a performance though, a proper fuckin rousing performance, i'm not into these sort of judge panel gigs where everyone just sort of looks on as if they should have scorecards or somethin, fuckin get into it, it's rock n roll, its participative, you're not watching a russian chess champion, it's Paul McCartney P.S. none of what i just wrote was meant as a measure of disrespect to those who WERE just awestruck, i've been a Beatles fan all my life, i TOTALLY TOTALLY get it

RE: Live Music = Profanity, debate!
this ridiculous hullabaloo over things like swearing is just...well, ridiculous. It's a word, it's a word in the english (or whatever language the speaker is using) language, how can a word possibly be offensive? Words are a means of communication, a word unto itself, by definition cannot be offensive, language simply doesn't work that way, it's the intent behind a word that counts. How can you outlaw language? That's a level of control that i'm just not for and never will be for. We're talking about fuckin rock n roll here, now that doesn't mean that you have an obligation to be an arsehole but at the same time, Jesus, your kids do live on planet earth y'know, on building sites, in cafes, school, restaurants, everywhere on earth where there are words there is swearing, whats the big deal? I think it's actually quite expressive. And this whole crap about kids, i think parents get the wrong end of the stick here. I'm about to come across as very patronising here but don't blame me cuz the question warrants it. i dunno if you got the wrong end of the stick when you went to parenting 101 but your job as a parent isn't to somehow make it so children are completely unaware of offensive words, the job isn't to hide them from it, the job is to explain to them that these words, depending on context, are improper for certain occasions, THATS what manners and propriety is, not being unaware of the existence of words by trying to eradicate them from the dictionary or pass judgement on those that utter them on occasion. What exactly is derogatory language? Are some of you seriously suggesting that something should be done about the fact that people are derogatory towards each other?!?! How is that even possible?!?! I don't think artists should be stifled in their right to express themselves, if you don't like it, don't listen and if you don't like your kids hearing it then i'm afraid you're just not being realistic and, dare i say it, approaching the concept of parenting from an odd angle. That sounds awfully arrogant which i don't mean it to, i just don't understand how you could possibly cloak a child from that sort of thing, short of locking them in a closet and only bringing them out for meals and a wash.

RE: Not EVERYONE is OF the World, but only in it for a time...
I'm not sure what that post was about, whats Paul meant to've done apart from had an image of Obama at one of his gigs? I'm lost, clarification anyone? Does Jesus not like black people or something? Or presidents maybe? Politicians in general? I'm lost P.S. The Beatles are bigger than Jesus
