Is Paul McCartney Too Old to Perform?

[Mark Rink]

I thought I would never say this but when I saw Macca here in Philly he was hitting every note to the tee. But SNL I think he sounded like crap I was very dissapointed

he looks fantastic for a man of his age...he had a cought a cold and that is why he sounded like that...other than that, he is a showman...he can sing all the hours he wants in a row...he is perfect...we all will grow old, sooner or later, the that does not mean we have to stop livng and doing the things we do...he is just...perfect...we all wish we could sing lke him...the man is a singer not a model...listen to him...to the lyrics of the songs...

I would ask this question instead: Does Paul play too many concerts??

[gjh]

i suppose at 68 he could lighten the load
but i think there are 'too many people' that love him
and he always says how much he likes to perform...
i think its quite possible that we'll hear in the next few yrs that he's done
no more touring..after decades it will be over
Its so close to this becoming reality that we should embrace the fact that hes still getting up there

nobody's too old to perform, too ill maybe,
but not too old.

I wish he'd be a little more selective about the quantity of live performances he does. I want new music and he needs to be saving that voice.

I just hope Paul doesn't turn into Dick Clark, who obviously doesn't know that he shouldn't be doing TV anymore (if you saw New Year's eve, you know what I mean)
