“They say it’s your birthday!!!”
That familiar Beatle song may be directed at one of its writers today, as Paul McCartney celebrates his 67th birthday! There was more fanfare for this occasion three years ago, as the lyrics of “When I’m 64” (from “Sgt. Pepper”) resonated as the milestone marking a long and distinguished career—that is STILL going strong.
Faithful readers of this blog will therefore be the FIRST to know that 94.9 WHOM is putting together a TERRIFIC promotion-that hopefully will start on Monday-that will send one lucky listener to Halifax , Nova Scotia to see McCartney LIVE on July 11th! Of course, if it all falls apart, I will have egg on my face, but we are confident that our friends at The Cat (the highspeed ferry) will partner with us to deliver this incredible concert experience!
The show will be at Halifax Common –and will include two tickets (duh), roundtrip transportation (with your car) aboard The Cat-and hotel accommodations as well! Let’s hope it all comes together.
It’s hard to imagine how an obscure singer from Liverpool, England, along with his bandmates became such an international sensation! After the Beatles, no member has had as much solo success as McCartney, in the process becoming one of the world’s wealthiest entertainers. Since the early 60’s , I doubt that anyone has been photographed more-or have had their life chronicled as much as the Fab Four-and Paul McCartney in particular.
Below is a clip of McCartney’s appearance on The View earlier this year:
