Paul McCartney has landed in Israel like a thief in the night!

Gosh Paul you have alotta guts. According to Ynet news Paul McCartney is in Israel landing there like a thief in the night in the wee hours of the morning,.muhahahaha.

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

~ 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 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.

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.

stay tuned!

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

No way Macca cannot being playing a gig in Israel?

No way Macca cannot being playing a gig in Israel?

Have you heard the rumours this past week that Paul McCartney is going to play in Israel this coming fall? Well according to Ynet.news Paul and band will be doing just that, this coming September. Paul and The Beatles have never performed in Israel do to a ban by Israels government.. 40 plus years ago.

You know, I just do not see a huge fan base there, never heard of any fans from Israel and feel it would not be safe for Macca at all period! Man I hope this is just a rumour.. Why doesn't Macca play for the troops in Iraq instead, in a safety zone? Well I suppose that is pushing it quit a bit. I'm not liking this idea at all..I worry about Paul's safety and security~ I'm NOT feeling this gig at all for Paul's sake

Who is going to protect Paul and the band the Israeli Army? thoughts anyone?
