Paul McCartney: Live ITunes Stream Show and PBS Special

Share

I know–it’s a lot of Paul McCartney news this week. He gets a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday afternoon. Then at 7pm Pacific Time he’s doing a concert live from Capitol Studios in Hollywood. The show is a live stream on ITunes featuring the whole new “Kisses on the Bottom” CD that Tommy LiPuma has made into a kind of instant classic. It’s unclear how big the audience can be since the Diana Krall band and all the recording equipment are filling the place up. I’m told the show will be turned into a PBS fundraising special at some point soon. Then of course Paul is honored at the MusiCares dinner on Friday night, and plays the Grammys on Sunday. If he makes a surprise appearance at Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy show and dinner on Saturday that will be the trifecta, so to speak. A long and winding weekend!
