Hey kids listen to first cut off Electric Aguments the Fireman!

Damn Google hasn't been updating my posts here, I hope they do so now!
What the? hear that? that's Paul McCartney & Youth...aka 'The Fireman'
Your in for some music for your ears with the opening notes from the, harmonica.WOW! this isn't a dance record like some of those lamo's are posting-online:

'McCartney's making a new dance album with his alter ego' well not the first track anyway. Ssorry,this isn't no dancer- techno track-but a rocker, a hard rocker!.

If you like bluesy rockin music this first cut off the Fireman's new album is for you, titled 'Nothing too much just outta sight' The Fireman knocks this one outta the park with it's edgy sound & rawkin guitars ala Led Zeppelin with a 70's classic rock vibe.

Listen to that harmonica! this is nothing like Macca has ever done before unlike the last two Fireman albums.. Come to think of it? never this hard hitting and raw., lol



Nothing too much just outta sight-The Fireman

Thanks to Maccaspan for picking this up off Radio One in the UK and uploading it to YouTube, so that you, me, us, we, can have a listen. Diggin it? listen to it a few times, shocking isn't? Quite different than 'Life long pssion' another track posted here from Electric Aguments posted below....comments......

The Fireman Finds His Voice With Brand New Album!
from Paul McCartney.com
The Fireman Finds His Voice With Brand New Album Electric Arguments
Album Release Date:
17th November 2008 Amazon has Nov 18th

The Fireman has officially spoken! woohoooo!

The Fireman are back after a ten-year break and this time they have something to sing about. For the first time ever the The Fireman have found their voice, Electric Arguments is their first release to feature vocals. Electric Arguments is their third and brand new studio album and it’s not the album people might expect from the mysterious duo…hb woohooo too include vocals!

Earlier this year The Fireman donated a new track, Lifelong Passion, from Electric Arguments, to the charity Adopt-A-Minefield. This new track marked a directional change for The Fireman.

Lifelong Passion showcased a new more traditional song based sound with vocals, going against the sound of the first two albums. And so the speculation began. A ‘studio source’ was quoted in The Times as describing their new sound ‘like? ' Arcade Fire meets Led Zeppelin’. So what had The Fireman been up to and what does the album sound like?

Run don't walk, find out more at Paul McCartney.com lol or just click on em buttons on your computer! hehehe more later.

What will Paul do now another gig, new album, or tour?
Just wondering what Macca will be up to now, since the Israel gig is over? He scared the mess out of alotta people by going to Israel and playing there. Please don't let us worry our little heads again Paul., Will he be brushing up in the studio finishing his new album? I believe it will be another fireman album-see post below. "New album about to drop the fireman Rushes in".

A sample of the Fireman Rushes-Paul McCartney
This was part of the pre-show music of McCartney's tour 04, Please correct me if I'm wrong I've been known to be wrong on occasion,.ha!


Is Paul planing another obsolete gig, road trip, private intimate gigs? that would be very nice for intimate gigs especially for his hardcore fan followers, like me, & you!
hehehehe
or will Paul, be planing his next tour? Dang the economy is extremely bad in the states,. I'd be lucky enough to attend one concert I'd opt for more intimate settings and many venues, but than agian Paul McCartney is not Superman, so I suppose we can't be too demanding of his time.,

Still waiting on MPL to release a vid of the Israel gig, Ive been looking,.

Diverting the Paparazzi, brilliant! Surrounded by security and a gang-load of police Paul than was escorted to his hotel. Paul to give press conference this Wednesday afternoon . Be safe Paul, you and the rest of the band be safe! more later.,

Finally some television news coverage about Israel gig.,
Macca in Israel see right--------

I just watched a snippet on ABC news about Macca in Israel,. Paul traveled to the West Bank today, where he visited a music school,. chatted with kids & teachers, even playing his guitar? wow! really? than off too a local church, Nativity in Bethlehem – the site of Christ’s birth.. Good for you Paul!

He even stopped to sign some autographs., said Paul: "what we need is Peace"

Sir Paul McCartney gets even more protection than George W Bush
24/09/2008 Mirror.co.uk
~ plus my own lil take

The vast security for Sir Paul McCartney’s Tel Aviv concert tonight even dwarfs the protection given to President Bush when he visited Israel.
A 5,000-strong security team will ensure Macca, 66, is watched around the clock in the wake of death threats from Islamic fanatics.
*
(hb take: What the hell? right on! you protect Macca guys,.a 5000 strong security team,. freakin cool beans! I'm so happy and relieved to know this along with the other legions of fans and Paul's family, thank you!)

One security source said: “No one is taking anything for granted. (hb: I heard that!)

“The level of security is unlike anything we’ve seen. Everything is being done to ensure that this passes peacefully and without incident.”(hb take: damn straight!)

A massive security army guarding Macca includes 20 agents from Israel’s elite Mossad intelligence organisation as well as officers from Britain’s MI6. hb: I'm very impressed!

But the bulk will be made up of Israeli police officers who will throw a cordon around the Tel
Aviv park where 70,000 fans will watch the ex-Beatle.
*
The source said: “Only security and a handful of Macca’s entourage will be near him. Everything is tailored to ensure he is 100 per cent safe.” hb take: well they better be protecting their butts as I've mentioned in another post~sheesh,. Bryan, Wix, Rusty & Abe too. I'm so happy to read the news, oh boy, my eyes have water in em, big time,-smile..,

Paul McCartney concert in Israel touches a nerve
9:48pm Los Angles Times

Uriel Sinai / Getty Images
Paul McCartney signs autographs in Tel Aviv, a day before his first scheduled show in Israel. He is expected to perform before some 50,000 people.

Pro-Palestinian groups urge him to boycott Israel, which banned the Beatles in 1965. He will perform there for the first time Thursday night.
By Ashraf Khalil, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer

September 25, 2008
JERUSALEM --

There's a new Israeli government being formed amid great uncertainty and divisive haggling. On Monday night, a Palestinian plowed his car into a group of Israeli soldiers in Jerusalem, injuring at least 13 people.

But Israel's popular Army Radio news station is spending much of its airtime playing the Beatles' greatest hits. Callers and local celebrities are being asked to reminisce about their favorite song by the Fab Four or Paul McCartney.

*McCartney arrived along with a reported 80 tons of speakers, instruments and stage equipment. His band and entourage occupy 21 suites at a luxury Tel Aviv hotel, and McCartney's grand-piano-equipped suite previously hosted former President Clinton and rock star Bono, according to local media reports.

Tickets for tonight's performance range from about $150 to nearly $1,500, the latter for VIP seats next to the stage in Tel Aviv's Hayarkon Park.

Ted-Nugent offers security services to McCartney

Wildman rocker TED NUGENT has offered his services to SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY - as a bodyguard.Nugent has offered to head up the former Beatle's personal security detail when McCartney performs in Israel on Thursday 25 Sep08.

And, despite the fact the Cat Scratch Fever hit maker is an avid hunter and McCartney an animal rights activist, he urges the Brit to take his offer seriously after learning of death threats from Muslim extremists if the ex-Beatle plays the concert to mark Israel’s 60th birthday.Nugent tells WENN,

"Regardless that Paul and I have our obvious social, cultural, and culinary differences outside of music, I will not bend or waiver to voodoo religious whackjobs and neither should Paul."

The U.S. rocker and National Rifle Association official insists his training with military specialists and various law enforcement agencies make him the perfect security expert for rock stars like McCartney.He adds,

"It would be my pleasure to keep this legendary musical hero safe from terrorists and mad men, and then buy him a nice dinner of tofu. I’m Dirty Harry with a ponytail, and I’m at Paul’s service.”
Hb take: I actually think Ted Nugent would be an excellant choice to protect Paul,. but donot think Paul will take him up on his offer,.

Why Sir Paul McCartney is willing to risk it all in Israel
By Geoff Baker
Last updated at 10:06 PM on 20th September 2008

Paul McCartney performs in Israel on Thursday for the first time. The concert in Tel Aviv will be a security nightmare and rival groups are playing tug-of-war with Paul's personal politics.
Because he is seen almost universally as 'one of the good guys', everyone wants to recruit him to their side.
Israel, which famously banned the 'decadent' Beatles in 1965, is billing the concert as part of its 60th anniversary celebrations.


Paul is no Zionist and nor has he ever spoken up for the PLO, but he is a pacifist and hopes the two sides take a hint from the title of the gig - The Friendship First Concert.

There is also a private reason for Macca's visit - it represents a nod of thanks to those of Jewish birth who were instrumental in helping to forge the Beatles phenomenon. As a Beatle, Paul's manager, lawyer, song publisher and promoter were all Jewish. read the rest of Geoff's story here

One blogger's open letter to Macca

Dear Paul,

As someone who grew up in Liverpool, I read with sadness your that you were playing a gig in Tel Aviv, Israel on September 25th.
Your announcement is headed ‘My message is a peaceful one...’ yet the very people who are the victims of unrelenting violence, house demolition, aerial bombardment, land confiscation and water shortages are opposed to you coming to Israel. I refer to the Palestinians.

Forty-three years ago, when the Beatles were banned from playing in Israel, I like most people thought of Israel as some kind of socialist experiment in the making.

As someone who grew up as a Zionist, I believed that Israel had made the desert bloom and was surrounded by those whose only wish was to destroy it. Successive wars of conquest demolished these myths and in particular the relentless bombing of civilians in the Occupied Territories and Lebanon,.
If we are honest Paul, where John Lennon led you followed. When John Lennon gave back the MBE you were forced to do likewise. more of Tony's letter here at his blog

more on letters later.
Must read article from the Jurusalem Post on Paul McCartney a brief snippet

Speaking words of wisdom
By David horovitz

A full half century after The Beatles began to take shape, Paul McCartney still sounds awed, modest and appreciative when discussing the lasting resonance of their music. Ahead of his Tel Aviv concert on Thursday, McCartney talks here to The Jerusalem Post about his beliefs, about how he copes with near-universal fame, about the puzzling, even "magical" inspiration for some of his songs, and about his abiding, insistently optimistic outlook on life.

"I don't know if he was being unworldly or self-calming in suggesting similarities between the extremists' objections now and the marginal hostility to a recent appearance he made in Quebec or to shows played at Tokyo's Budokan martial arts arena.

But he wanted to stress that his message is one of humanitarianism and friendship. Indeed, this week's show, the latest in a series of one-offs that has seen him play to almost 700,000 people in Liverpool, Kiev and Quebec, is being promoted as McCartney's "Friendship First" concert"

Is that Paul?
Yeah!
How're you doing man?
I'm great. It's lovely to speak to you.

I have to tell you my sister and my mum were in the enthralled masses at Hammersmith Odeon in 1965…
I remember them well! (Laughs)

All they could hear was screaming, they said.
I know - that's all we could hear too... I must say, even though we couldn't hear anything, it was pretty exciting times.
You're the soundtrack to my children's lives as well. My daughter, who's 11, has just started learning bass and she's learning "Let It Be." That's the first thing they've got her working on.

Wow. It is fabulous, eh. We never, ever, thought that it would last this long. But, you know, it's a great tribute that it has lasted and that kids play it these days. I'm very proud of that fact.

It's third time lucky for Israel, right, after our brilliant government banned you and then the Wings dates fell through [in the 1970s]? Is this somewhere you've particularly wanted to play?

Yeah, you know, I'm always interested in visiting places I've never been to before, just as a tourist. It's always interesting to go to a new region. The offer of a gig came up. And it was somewhere that I'd been interested in. I'd like to go there and see what's what. I hear from a lot of people that Tel Aviv is a great place. more of Paul's interview here Juresalem Post

Long time ago when we was Fab Macca in Israel

One week until Paul & the band play Israel.,.and I still have concerns, I worry for Paul..
Who would have thought even 15-20 years ago, that a musician would be threatened with his own life for wanting to play in a foreign land? Now the mop-top Beatle of 1964 is threatened with his life in 2008, how freakin sad!

This shows you how dangerous this world has become. Ever since 9-11 this world has become crazier,. you'd never expect such craziness where it has become common place where terrorism is acceptable,. meaning US, in the free world have to deal with this crap on a daily basis. The war in Iraq, the war on terror.

No news orgs., have spoken about this on television, what:

"ahh no big deal just Paul McCartney being threatned with his life by some Wacko's in the Middle East,. it isn't news worthy,.Bullchips!"
Feel me now?

Do westerners even have right to step onto foreign ground forcing democracy onto a people and nations that do not believe in Freedom or Peace or even God?

Sheeesh, and here we have a group of people threatening the life of Paul McCartney who isn't a political figure or have an agenda, only there in Tele-Aviv to play music and have a good time. A musician who has as always spoke of spreading Peace & Love thru music...Just like the Beatles have all those years ago..

I'd say leave those nations alone that do not adopt the beliefs of the west., Music is a universal language that bring people together however, in this case extremist's do not understand it's meaning or symbolism now,. nor will they ever nuff said....

need a lil music? see George Harrison below

No matter how many protests by various groups or fans like me, for that matter. Paul McCartney will be playing his first time ever, gig, in Tel-Aviv this coming Sept 25.. that is 12 only, days away.
I wonder if Paul and the band are there now? Certainly we should be hearing from Brian. There is a contest on a local radio station (Quebec) to see Paul in concert. I have to find the link. I'm hoping Paul has a gang-load of security with him to protect him and the band from Political fanatics & protesters alike.!

Anyhow here is the link if you would like to click on it to possibly fly to Israel to see Macca

What about security for Paul?

I''d hate to see some dump-truck try and F-up this party....
Yeah know, I bet Michael would bring out a can of whip-ass onto anyone that got outta hand. Michael. geez, have you seen the size of those guns on that guy? friendly, easy going, friendly. I wouldn't want to piss him off! lol than we have Mr. Mark a quiet one, who seems to come from outta nowhere, remember Paris 04? He was soo nice I'll never forget his help.smile..Well if these guys are there to protect Paul, I feel I can sleep better now. Macca feels just like family to me, and I cannot help to worry? I worry about the band also..

If you have never seen Paul McCartney live, I tell you this, It will be one of the most memorable moments of your life... E-V-E-R...! Truly..

WTF? Now Paul McCartney is receiving death threats if he plays Israel? This freakin bugs me real effin bad.,. I just received a Macca news alert that Paul is receiving death threats! This pisses me off, Damn and Paul still plans to play there? I have not read the links yet but will provide em.. on Jihad watch it's posted:

"SIR Paul McCartney has been threatened that he will be the target of suicide bombers unless he abandons plans to play his first concert in Israel".

Sunday September 14,2008
By Dennis Rice Sunday Express, edit: plus my own lil comments "hb take"

SIR Paul McCartney has been threatened that he will be the target of suicide bombers unless he abandons plans to play his first concert in Israel.

Self-styled preacher of hate Omar Bakri claimed the former Beatle’s decision to take part in the Jewish state’s 60th anniversary celebrations had made him an enemy of all Muslims.( hb take: what like other western musicians haven't played in the region before? why threaten Paul McCartney?)

Sources said Sir Paul was shocked but refused to be intimidated.In an interview with Israeli media yesterday he said: “I was approached by different groups and political bodies who asked me not to come here. I refused. I do what I think and I have many friends who support Israel. ( hb take:right, Paul, you shouldn't be threatend but I'd be scared and would refrain from stepping on ground there, you are much to precious to us that LOVE you!)

”Sir Paul, 65, should have gone to Israel with the Beatles in 1965 but they were barred by the Jewish nation’s government over fears they would corrupt young people. ( hb take: quite a bunch of BS simple)

Yesterday a number of websites described him as an infidel and suggested he was going to Israel only because of the reported £2.3m fee for the one-off concert. A message posted on one website said: (hb take: Infidel? now what would they know what Paul McCartney believes in he is a man of PEACE)

“Shame on you Paul McCartney for day trippin’ to apartheid Israel” and vowed never to buy his music again.Bakri, who made his weekly internet broadcast to fellow extremists from his home in Lebanon, where he has lived in exile since being banned from returning to Britain, said (hb take: man this guy needs to get a clue perhaps he would dig a Macca concert and set his head straight, well it's just a thought?

Sir Paul was “making more enemies than friends”.Syrian-born Bakri, 48, went on: “I heard today that the pop star Paul McCartney is playing as a part of the celebrations.

“If you speak about the holocaust and its authenticity never being proved historically in the way the Jewish community portray it, people will arrest you. People will you say you should not speak like this. Yet they go and celebrate the anniversary of 60 years of what? ( hb take: the Holocaust never being proved historically, huh is this guy truly serious?)

“Instead of supporting the people of Palestine in their suffering, McCartney is celebrating the atrocities of the occupiers. The one who is under occupation is supposed to be getting the help. “And so I believe for Paul McCartney, what he is doing really is creating more enemies than friends.”Explaining his comments, Bakri told the Sunday Express: (hb take: you can't fault a man for what he truly believes but this is a bit extreme.)

“Our enemy’s friend is our enemy.“Thus Paul McCartney is the enemy of every Muslim. We have what we call ‘sacrifice’ operatives who will not stand by while he joins in a celebration of their oppression. (hb take: did he take a vote stating every muslim hates Macca or am I missing something here?

“If he values his life Mr McCartney must not come to Israel. He will not be safe there. The sacrifice operatives will be waiting for him.”

Lawyer Anjem Choudary, who last week chaired a meeting in London at which extremists claimed the next 9/11-style atrocity would be in Britain, said:( hb take: these guys are fanatical,crazy, maniacs.,.period)

Sir Paul had allowed himself to become a propaganda tool for Israel.He added: “Muslims have every right to be angry at Paul McCartney. How would the world react if he wanted to have a concert in occupied Kashmir?“They would not allow it to happen but because it is Israel he can play. (hb take: blah blah blah boring!)

A country which, as the celebration indicates did not exist 60 years ago, only exists thanks to stealing and occupying another country’s lands.” Yesterday the comments drew condemnation from Palestinian sources and outsiders.( Hb take: as it should)

Omar Barghouti, of The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, described the threat as “deplorable”.Patrick Mercer, the Conservative MP for Newark and a former Shadow Security Minister, said:

“One could dismiss Bakri as a ranting extremist but history has shown that he has an ability to twist minds, so his comments should not be underestimated. (hb take: I'd take a threat like this pretty seriously-what a jerk.)

“If Sir Paul McCartney wants to play at the 60th anniversary then it is the worst form of illiberalism for Omar Bakri to restrict the artist’s freedom in this way.”A spokesman for Sir Paul declined to comment on the threat, saying: (Hb take: yes, many are pretty speechless also how could one comment for Paul?.)

“Paul’s Friendship First concert is about his music. Paul’s is a message of peace.”Tickets for the concert range from £70 to £230.

what a bunch of crap you cannot reason with a bunch of maniacs!

what do you think thoughts anyone?

Paul McCartney says Michelle was written for Michelle Obama

New Yawk, NY-- Sir Paul McCartney said today the famous Beatle's song, 'Michelle', was written for Michelle Obama. The ex-Beatle was in New Yawk today for treatment on his marijuana addiction. Sir Paul says he smokes "about 20 joints a day, or maybe just 11.  (ya mean Snoop Dog right?)  " He hopes Michelle Obama has heard the song and hopes she enjoys it.

Sir Paul said the idea for the song came about one day when he and John Lennon were smoking some great Turkish hashish back in 1965

"We were talking about the future and all the famous people that weren't even born yet. We were both so stoned! We wanted to write a song for them, to let them know we were thinking about them anyway. It was my idea, John stole it of course, the asshole! Michelle Obama was only one-year old at the time but we knew she would be famous one day somehow." said Sir Paul through a thick haze of marijuana smoke.

"'Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds' was written for Lucy Diamond. She will be the first president of the world in 2200. Also, 'Lovely Rita' was written for Rita Maid. She won't be born for another thousand years though. I forget what she will be famous for. God, I'm still so stoned!

"Sir Paul had many other anecdotes to share but forgot them. "Memories almost full now, the hard drive is all gummed up with hash tar now. God, I miss those days. I'm going over to the Dakota Building now to see John. Won't he be surprised!"

The story above is totally ficticious thanx to The Spoof... but this was funny lol

What to do when your hot and irritated? Plus Beatles Mix & Mash

It's freakin hot!
Man it's damn hot over here where I live. The heat makes me lazy and sleepy at least we could have some kinda breeze, right? Been having a heat wave in the bay area now for almost a week and I'm not in an air conditioned place at the moment, but my tight quarters of an apartment and I tell you.. it's making me uncomfortable. My favorite time of year is the Fall wish it would hurry up and come soon.
Geez, I could only imagine what animals feel like..ewwww..the poor lil creatures.

I don't even wanna drive anywhere! I don't have a damn pool either, I feel like a damn Grumpy Gus, laughin at myself. One thing that can bring you outta any funky mode is too listen to music, I'm just having a difficult time in choosing which vids to post?


Beatles-Green day Mash-up- Elanor Rigby

-whatta think? It would have been hella cool with cool vid to match .. but they did a great job this is crystal clear and Maasshed well... heheheh

Beatles in the Mix-Mash it up
I think it would be cool if someone would do a whole Beatles catalog of Beatles mixes. I had posted one months ago, perhaps this is what I will post, a Beatles mix, if I can find one. Yeah, Paul why don't you and Ringo come out with a catalog of Beatles mixes and what I mean by this is several songs mixed into one not just one songy remixed..like I have heard in the past..
Or a Beatles "Mash- up" If you haven't heard a a Mash-up well I'll post one than.. It would be a slam dunk I bet every Beatles fan would buy em..would you? just thinking.


Beatles & Pantera Mash-up- Elanor Rigby done quite well like the video

I wonder what Paul and the band are doing if they are rehearing for that gig in Israel? I don't like that he is playing there either. I cannot express how many times I don't approve, like I would have any influence on Macca, ha! Maybe Paul will take his new Beatles Monopoly game on the road with him to play with the band... I'm just too delirious now since its so HOT!!!lol
OK, I have spent hours looking for vids Ive been workin on this post for 3 plus hours now, dang~I'm am-bushed and sleepy~lol

Hillary Clinton doesn't have to worry about us women voters

Nope, I believe us women who are on the fence in whom to vote for this coming November will not be swayed by the Palin VP nomination. Ohh, this women is quite scary, I shudder the thought of Palin becoming Prez. IF McCain should win, on the other hand I don't see that happening. I like McCain's personna, but I don't see him as Commander and Cheif..
I know it, I'm just so entraced by this election! I will becoming back down to earth this weekend. Stay tuned! I'd vote for Paul McCartney tho in a heartbeat!

Just some random thoughts over the last week Poliics, Music and other crap Change is gonna come.
Hello vistors out there
Hello people, a lil shout out to the visitor from, Harvard, coolio thanx for the visit. I encourage all brainiacs to visit my blog, Book or Street wise, your all welcome. I see where my visitor's are " coming from "on the left hand side from my flag counter you can get one too at NeoWorx see banner below "neoWorx" you can click on this get one there if you like- makes your blog come to life..
On the Political front
Anyhow I hadn't posted anything over the weekend due to my constant thoughts over the week. The Hillary/Obama saga Hillary not chosen for the Democratic nomination, Obama's acceptance speech, actually brilliant. McCain's VP running mate, eek not a great choice in my opinion but hey what do I know I'm not a conservative, HA. I tell you this, she, Palin, has nothing on Hillary both sides have let experience fly through the window this is a great psychology dynamic.
A flip of the script Obama less experienced Harvard grad with vision and ideals with a VP who is all Washington insider... you know it. Than McCain maverick conservative Washington insider, who doesn't get it.( Obama on point with that) with VP choice with no experience. hummm?...

A script Shakespeare and Political Science majors would be proud of "Death in Politics as the world knew it."


Otis Redding-Change is gonna come

A must listen to Great soulful song by the Great Otis Redding enjoy the video!

McCartney in Israel?
Moving on, Paul McCartney playing in the Middle East, Israel, this coming September 25th
and me just not wanting him to be there...at all..as one of his HUGE fans,.....a big fat NO period! Why Israel? OK, I'm not hatin here people but why hasn't Paul played Australia instead, after he cancelled years ago? there is a larger fan base in Australia I'm most certain.. no free concert for Israel like recent Paul McCartney gigs you gotta pay.

Micahel Jackson is 50?
Than Michael Jackson turns 50 is there just somethin weird about that? Michael the lil boy that never grew up I don't see Michael as 50 but as a boy my God we're all getting older. I wonder if Macca will ever forget or forgive Michael for ripping him off for the Beatles catalog?

Words of wisdom
Like my mother used to say "The only thing constant is change"and we all have been wittiness's to all these changes this past week. A huge universal change is in the air which we
all can grow and benefit from.. A changing psychology of a nation..I'm intrigued?. A change is gonna come like Otis Redding once sang. Are you feeling it?
I'm taillights~hb
