[Macho MAGA Man]

We're all getting old.

Lyrics need to be changed to Eighty-Two. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCTunqv1Xt4

Thanks for the link.

I am old. I remember the Ed Sullivan appearance like it was 20 years ago (LOL).

In some of the linked photos, some of the children do not look happy to be there... could’ve been just a bad shot.

I marvel when I see kids today (REM. I’m old... “kids today” is what we say), with Beatles Tee shirts, etc. It makes me think, “Yes. Their music is timeless.”

[plain talk]

When I’m 64 plus 18.

10 years ago, I had a custom sign made for my wife's garden,
"Digging the weeds. Who could ask for more?"

[EvilCapitalist]

My 11 year old nephew loves The Beatles.

[EvilCapitalist]

I take it 10 years ago your wife was 64?

[kinsman redeemer]

No...

"When I get older..."

I am 74 now.

[EvilCapitalist]

Fair enough.

[kinsman redeemer]

She was only 3 when this:

1964

[HerrBlucher]

Yeah Yeah Yeah!

[laplata]

Good one!

[Bullish]

Well Paul’s old and quite stupid... So there’s that.

[Jim W N]

I love the Beatles. They serenaded me through high school. Then I got tired of them. But years later I found myself once again loving these guys and their music.

Anybody have a video of a current McCartney? I’m willing to bet he’s aged better than Joe, but what do I know.

[1Old Pro]

As the Fleetwood Mac lyrics say:

… Well, I’ve been ‘fraid of changin’
‘Cause I’ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m gettin’ older, too
I’m gettin’ older, too

[jerod]

At least Paul is over that ‘dating girls with one leg’ thing he had going on. He’s probably still getting prosthetic legs thrown in his direction when he’s on stage. Those women are relentless.

And remember Tom Jones... You sniff one pair of panties and then boom... They’re throwing them at you like there’s no tomorrow.

Well Yoko is 91, she looked 91 back in the late 60’s.

[Inyo-Mono]

Anybody have a video of a current McCartney? I’m willing to bet he’s aged better than Joe, but what do I know.

No video but I first saw him perform live with The Beatles when he was just 24, they did a 35 minute show. The saw him live again five years ago at age 77 and he did a 3 1/2 hour long show. Only sat down to play the piano, he's in great shape.

Paul Meatless Monday McCartney. Lennon & McCartney were great songwriters. The Beatles were a tremendous band. Each individual was very talented on their own.
