Paul McCartney playing on NYC streets

Sad that he's been reduced to playing on the streets of NYC.

Yesterday he did 7 songs on the street, so I threw a dollar in his guitar case.

The guy still has it!

A good friend of mine was given tickets to that show and said it was very exciting and a real thrill.

He played an outdoor show here in Halifax last week that was great.
Man, that guy has got presence.
I just sat at the skatepark (which was right next to said concert) with my uni and listened to the music instead of buying a ticket... I'm cheap that way.
Local music-fella Joel plaskett was one of the openers and he put on a most enjoyable show.

Yeah, if you check out the video link, you'll see Paul playing on the STREETS of NYC. A crowd gathered, nobody had tickets.

Yeah, it was pretty cool, all open air. Saw it on CBSNews.com. Good thing he wasn't in here:
