From the article:

Quote:
The pairing sparked an outpouring of Twitter sarcasm.

Quote:
While most saw the funny side, some took the comments as genuine, and unforgivable, musical ignorance.

Funny but Paul is my favorite Beatle, that he would team up for a song with a guy that wears his underpants on his head for live performance is proof the world is topsy turvy. Similar irony to a woman in a 100k mink coat picking up her dogs poop in a plastic bag and placing it carefully in the coats pocket. Serves him (Sir) right lol. :lol:

Macca must've been offered a lot of coin to work with that idiot. That's the only reason I can deduce why he would even bother with him.

Well, Paul is getting up there in years. Senility must be setting in. :|

:lol: So you read half of the article, become outraged, then post it here.
Ironically, in this world of instant media, lack of communication and mis-information has never been more rife.
I think Paul's generation (mine) are far more ignorant and closed minded about KW's work than vice versa.

Agree with you, but then again, how much talent does KW have compared to Paul , who has had more worldwide success?
There can't be many people in the civilised world who don't know who Paul McCartney is (apart from KW fans and a certain UK judge who famously asked "Who are the Beatles?")

Incidentally, we played Oldham Astoria the week after the Beatles did ......The manager came talking to us after our first spot and told us he'd booked them ages before they became famous, Brian Epstein had offered him 3 acts in their place , Cilla Black, The Fourmost and Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas , but he refused , as he knew the place would be packed out
As we were talking, a young girl knocked at the door and asked him if she could have a coathanger that Paul had used the week before (the manager never actually saw them, he was on holiday, so she, being honest, put a piece of tape on the coathanger so she'd know which it was ) He told her yes of course (she worked in the coffee bar part of the complex)

She searched frantically around and ended up asking us all to look under our coats, mine had the coathanger with the label bearing her name , so I actually used the same coathanger as Sir Paul

The coincidental thing is, her name was Michelle

As I said , she worked in the coffee bar upstairs at the venue and apparently had managed to get in the dressing room before the Beatles got to the venue and located Paul's stage suit (which I am told had "P M " stitched inside the coat) , then got some masking type tape and had scribbled her name on it and stuck it on the wire coat hanger ....Paul MUST have seen it, so you never Know!

Here is a picture of them there
