He's kicking *ss!

Cracked me up seeing Jack Nicholson busting down dancing in the seats.

Sorry but that man still has IT! Makes me weak just like he did when I was 12! (of course earlier I was switching back and forth to MTV to watch the repeat of The Osbournes!)

I'll never forgive myself for NOT getting tickets when he was here in STL a few weeks ago. :(

I've watched it off and on. He's great, but I haven't seen any footage of him lately and it seems like he's starting to show his age quite a bit more than I remember. How old is he anyway?

Older than me! I want to say 54? Still looks fine to this old bird!

GAH, I didn't know it was on til my sister phoned me. I wish I'd have taped it.

Wow. I've been listening to him for 40 years I guess...

And his wife is what, 26 or 27? Maybe she's keeping him young for ya;)

I'm glad he found someone. It was heartbreaking to watch all the stuff about his wife when she died. He just seemed so devastated.

It was really touching when he played "My Love" tonight, he wrote that for Linda. Everyone's got a soulmate, some are lucky enough to meet them and spend time with them. I really think Linda and Paul were soulmates. (am I getting philosophical?)

Excellent show. Hoping my sister thought to tape it!

((I know his wife is younger than Paul's one daughter))

I watched it!!! Dang, that guy can still make a heart go pitter patter! I almost cried when he sang "Long Winding Road". Hey, if he's happy with his wife, who cares how old she is. He deserves as much happiness as he can get.

60? Really? Holy s***. I am definately now feeling my age! I still remember watching the Beatles when they made their US debut on the Ed Sullivan show.

There will never be another group like the Beatles!!!:cool:

Great show! It was so much fun hearing the first note of a song and my husband and I guessing the song and also seeing the little kids in the audience singing along! I wish I had taped it. I hinted to my son that the CD of the show would be a great present!

OMG! Watched it Eastern and Western time last night, taped it and Paul and I got up at 5:00 this morning to put the turkey in the oven and rock and roll a bit. Yes, the man still has it-certainly brought a few tears to my eyes, I lost it when he teared up when everyone was waving the hearts. And Blackbird! This is a keeper, I wonder if John was watching?

That is one of my very favorite songs...

I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me? She showed me her room, isn't it good? Norwegian wood.
