McCartney said "this is rock and roll" and then played Beatles pop songs. Duh! Green Day and Velvet Revolver were Rock and Roll. Muse and Razorlight were rock and roll. McCartney - sorry no. Bad ending. Just like Stevie Wonder in Philly. Of course he is a Legend. But what does he mean to the youth of today. Philly should have ended with Linkin Park. Remember - this wasn't about raising money (in which case it would be valid to have the old giffers last) it is about making the kids realise what is going on. <BR/><BR/>Oh - and why the contradiction when I said the Floyd, clearly old giffers, should have ended Hyde Park? Because they were fricking amazing and the kids should be told what they missed. <BR/><BR/>I feel no reason to be consistent.Mr Portshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08842669319018647708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10464003.post-1120424713083435282005-07-03T22:05:00.000+01:002005-07-03T22:05:00.000+01:00It was brilliant to see Pink Floyd back together b...It was brilliant to see Pink Floyd back together but was it me or did Nick Mason look bored?<BR/><BR/>If McCartney dines out on Hey Jude one more time I'll personally pay to have him topped. It wouldn't be so bad but he didn't even write it.<BR/><BR/>Sorry but I found the event slighty self serving and self congratulatory.Tony Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004052797565652225noreply@blogger.com
