The Pagemeister Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Believe it or not, legendary singer/songwriter Paul McCartney has never appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman. That ll changes this Wednesday, July 15th. What makes the appearance truly significant, however, is the location of the taping. Letterman shoots his nightly CBS talk show from what some fans consider to be the birthplace of the Beatles. McCartney, along with John, George, and Ringo, made his U.S. television debut at the Ed Sullivan Theater on "The Ed Sullivan Show" nearly one half century ago. On Wednesday, McCartney returns to that equally legendary stage to visit with late night icon David Letterman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pagemeister Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 I think the whole show will be devoted to Sir Paul, so it should not be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliet Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Hi Pagemeister: I'll be sure to watch it...... I'm proud to admit that I saw the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan show. Our family had a small black and white tv but that didn't matter to this young girl..The show was on Sunday night..I will never forget...

Fan_S. Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Yeah, McCartney was great! What a class act he was too, during the chat with David Letterman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotplant Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) He looks like he's in pretty good shape. And he still has that little boy look about him. (who knows how much 'work' he's had done) His voice held up fine, I dug it. It was funny when his memory slipped a couple of times. I think only him and Audioslave were ever allowed to perform on the platform or whatever it's called...above the marquee.

The Rover Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 What does McCartney performing on Letterman have to do with Plant? McCartney & Co. performed outside on the marque of the Letetrman studios without any feedback. Robert Fucking Plant & Co. has ---weeks-- to prepare for the O2 show..... and all we get is fucking ass feedback for the first 4 songs..... That's what I'm talking about - - - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm talking about - - - Thanks for clarifying as I had no idea what you were referring to. I'm sure some gigs go off seamlessly and others are marred by technical issues. Shit happens. I'd also say sound issues are out of the hands of the artist and are more the responsibility of those running the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 That was a great performance. I watched it earlier today over at Rollingstone.com, which also has the full outdoor performance. The band was very tight and Paul sung very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
