Dancer?! Think I know which one I would rather be good at . . . Yes, you guessed it, writing and recording this song! Didn't see that one coming I'll bet!By the way, I'm not sure how my little Canon digital camera managed to get a few of these pictures. A couple of the stills turned out blurry though when I took them they looked fine. Also, two pieces of video were unusable because the camera just would not focus, fortunately the audio turned out fine.
Still quite happy to have had the opportunity to see Sir Paul yesterday. I believe that he is starting off his concert tour here in NYC at Citi Field-the new version of "Shea Stadium". So he plays at the Ed Sullivan Theater, homage to 1964, does it as a rooftop gig, homage to the Beatles Apple rooftop gig and starts off his tour at Citi Field, homage to the Beatles Shea Stadium gigs. Nice trifecta!
Am I reading too much into this? Most likely. As I recall, Paul wrote this song after hearing an interview of Pete Townshend proclaiming he had just written the most raucous rock song ever. Paul, not one to be outdone wrote this little dity in response. I can't help but think that recording a song like this could cause one to get blisters on their fingers.
Anyhoo, as promised I'm posting a few more pictures and "Helter Skelter" in its entirety.
