Reason #879 Why Paul McCartney Rules

Posted by Whit Honea

 

As we mentioned earlier, Paul McCartney and his new love are on a road trip across historic Route 66.  They appear to be spreading sunshine everywhere they go.  That's the McCartney way.

While stopped in Amarillo, Texas a man named Don Dunavin approached Paul with his 4-month-old son Jude.  Jude was named for the son, which in turn was named for a boy.  Kind of makes your head spin, doesn't it?

McCartney, being the kind of all that is good and holy said, "I've got something for him."

He took out his harmonica, because badasses always carry their harmonica on their person, and played "Hey Jude."   The crowd went wild.

Says Dunavin, "Jude was smiling at him. I told my wife to get the camera out and he stopped. He said, 'Please, no pictures.' But then started playing some more."

See, that's pretty darn cool, isn't it?

I knew I should have named my kid "Yesterday."

I was first exposed to Paul McCartney because of Wings and their album Band on the Run. As a little girl I loved dancing around pretending I was a bluebird. I would have loved to meet Paul and have him play a song for me.
