Happy Birthday


The one and only Sir James Paul McCartney; and noted film critic Roger Ebert, both of whom turn 66 today, June 18th.

By the way, Paste magazine is reporting that Macca's upcoming 2-year, 100-show trek will be the last of its kind for him. The lengthy jaunt, during which he'll play some territories for the very last time, is considered to be a 'farewell tour' for this reason. Although McCartney will surely undertake smaller performance commitments in the future, it's said he's decided to scale back on his touring after this undertaking to spend more time with family, especially 4 year-old daughter Beatrice.

Oh, and in the meantime, here's our favorite: "Maybe I'm Amazed" live, from 1976. Enjoy!
