Paul McCartney: I'm Down

I saw Paul at Tokyo Dome when he first played the old Beatles tunes, 1989 or so. Was glad to have him back again but now he is - down - with a cold so here is a medley of videos, from Shea Stadium and The Budokan, back in 1965 and 1966. So very much loved here in Japan, after all these years.

Back then I was impressed that he promoted Friends of the Earth, the NGO here in Japan. Do support them, if you have the means.

Paul has also always been a proponent of the vegetarian way of life, and encouraged "Meat Free Mondays" for people who needed that kind of inspiration. Climate change? EAT LESS MEAT is a major message if you try to contribute to a world that has looked at all the evidence, and we need to get the message across.

Is it that difficult?

Paul says, it is the kids that give us the hope for the future.

I like how Paul also supports meditation 
McCartney has also in the past called for Transcendental Meditation to be used in schools. He said:
“I believe that in the future meditation could be as commonplace in schools and society as eco-awareness is now. It interests me that an ancient cure may be the solution to a modern problem.”

Big moment for me four years ago with Tom to visit Abbey Road in London.

And a small road nearby.

So, Paul, if you are feeling down, so be it.
