Abe says hell no to being a "Veggie"

[Chris Speers]

Look at Abe? Fanstastic drummer. Excellent singer. But, you know what? There's no way in hell that Abe went "veggie". I know McCartney is strict about the Veggie but when you drum as well as Abe - he gets cut a lotta slack. I hear McCartney actually saw him eating burgers and wings and he looked the other way. When Macca confronted him once about McDonalds' wrappings in the dressing room, Abe said with a moutful of meat..."Fuel" and MAcca sheepishly turned away and strapped on his bass.

Macca was heard to mutter to an MPL publicist "I've had many veggie drummers but none of them have had the fire and brimstone of young Abraham - it must be the meat and the diet".
