Sorry, mods; I thought I'd posted that in the "Paul" section.

I'm jealous! Please report on it after you've seen the show.

Whew; I thought I was the only one. I thought his voice sounded weaker, but I'm not one to guess.

Post by: Normandie on July 31, 2022, 07:11:31 PM: I wonder if Paul ever considered the potential effects on his voice of smoking marijuana. I suppose that, if he did, he didn't care, or at least, he didn't care enough to give it up.

Cigarette smoking also affected his voice.

Cigarette smoking also affected his voice.

I've read that some singers prefer the quality that cigarette smoking lends to their voice (e.g., rougher/raspier).

Post by: nimrod on September 30, 2023, 10:31:43 PM: I'm hoping he does this in November. It'd be great if he adopted the old video of John singing the middle 8 of We Can Work It Out. But I'd be more than happy with I've Got A Feeling.

Post by: Normandie on October 22, 2023, 06:28:56 PM: I have my fingers crossed, hard, that on his next tour of the States he will play somewhere feasible for me (i.e., not too far away). I suppose my best hope is Minneapolis.

If he comes to the states, I will see him again, worth traveling far for
