Paul McCartney says fans deserve to hear the songs they paid for, which is why he's never fully embraced Bob Dylan's approach to rearranging classics or playing obscure tracks live. "I've been to see a couple of shows of Bob's, and I couldn't tell what song he was doing. Now that's a bit much, because I know his stuff. I get it if he doesn't want to do 'Mr. Tambourine Man.' Maybe he’s fed up with that, but I would like to hear it. And I've paid." consequence.net/2026/05/paul-m…

Paul McCartney explains why he doesn't do selfies with fans. "If I meet someone and they're reaching for their phone, I say: 'I'm sorry, I don't do pictures.' And that is radical these days... "It's important to me... the minute I get above myself and start thinking I'm something else... I won't like me. It's very important for me to be sort of just me. "So I will say, 'I don't want to do the photos.' And they will say, 'Why?' And I'll say, 'Well, I'll tell you why.' And I go into this long-winded explanation of down on the south coast of France, Saint-Tropez, there's a guy on the beachfront who's got a monkey, and you pay to have your photo taken with the monkey. 'I really do not want to feel like that monkey. And when I take a picture with you, I do feel like him. I'm not me. I'm suddenly something else.'" (via @restisents) 📸: Mary McCartney

On Saturday 14th May 2011, I was at the SECC in Glasgow watching Rush on their 'Time Machine' Tour. There was no support act. (Ticket from my own collection) #Rush #GeddyLee #AlexLifeson #NeilPeart #TimeMachineTour #Glasgow #SECCGlasgow @Rush @SECGlasgow

@BBCNews Maybe your headline should clarify this is the World Cup halftime show!

@WolfsbaneHMS Between 'Live Fast Die Fast' in 1989 and the self titled album in 1994, the band didn't write or record a single duff track. Every song is a classic track for someone.

I am blessed to be able to finally share my path to where I am today, in my own words, with the world.”

@heraldscotland Things that never happened - #JohnSwinney was supposed to meet @Keir_Starmer face to face in June 2026 to discuss a second independence referendum however, Starmer's tenure as Prime Minister finished in May 2026 due to a large number of bad decisions on his part.

@miggelsen @IronMaiden He's doing an audiobook - read by himself

@IronMaiden I would prefer an audiobook read by himself, like the good old 'listen with Nicko' tracks on the CDs.

Hello Boys and Girls!   Nicko's got a book! Coming October 2026, 'Hello Boys and Girls!' is Nicko's story as told by the man himself. Nicko says “I’m very excited and honoured to be working with the wonderful HarperNonFiction Team on my very own book full of lots of fun stories, anecdotes and of course my incredible experiences with some of the greatest musicians and performers from the 70s, 80s and beyond! I am blessed to be able to finally share my path to where I am today, in my own words, with the world."   Head to lnk.to/helloboysandgi… to preorder your copy today!   #NickoMcBrain #HelloBoysAndGirls @HarperCollins

@EKRepTheatre @dunlopplayers @RutherglenRep

After a hectic 3 days, RepFest is over for another year - 9 performances from 7 different companies. Lots of experience gained, lots of steps counted, lots of questions asked and answered, lots of problems identified and sorted out & lots of fun was had with some lovely people.

@74frankfurt My first ever gig was at The Caird Hall in Dundee but it's wasn't as great as seeing The Who there - it was T'Pau in September 1989.
