macca

i am not a beatles fan. never have been. never will be.
used to cause some problems when i was at annemarie’s, she was from liverpool and it seems if you are a scouser you have to like the beatles.
but i do quite admire paul maccartney. he has written some memorable songs, he did one of the best bond songs ever with “live and let die”, and he keeps making music when he has nothing to prove. he is rich and successful.
yet that hasn’t stopped him suffering.
with the release of his new album and his 65th birthday almost coinciding there was a secret london gig. around a thousand people were invited to attend, including gareth gates.
c’mon macca i know it has been a tough year or so for you, but crikey you must know more than a thousand decent and talent celebrities. just how many had to call off before you had to call on gareth to make up the numbers?
i feel a little miffed that i wasn’t in camden on the night of the gig, i reckon if i loitered near the door i would have gotten in to make up the numbers.
everyone go out and buy sir paul’s cd, that way when he launches the next one he can afford a better class of guests.

(mmm do you think i could write for the celeb gossip columns? after all i am going to need a new job soon.)

Maybe he's not your cup of tea, but there's no denying Gareth is talented! Perhaps Macca is more open-minded than you?

Sounds like a great show, whoever else was in the audience. I would have loved to have been there, but I know I would have failed auditions if they'd held them!!
