Paul McCartney Flew Overnight From Brazil For Daughter’s Lincoln Center Tribute

Paul McCartney, now 72 and nimble as ever, still seemed annihilated when she arrived at Alice Tully Hall on Thursday night. He had flown overnight from Brazil, where he has been on a tour of the stadium, so it could be in the Lincoln Center tribute to their successful and beautiful daughter Stella McCartney.

Paul and his wife Nancy are supposed to do on the red carpet in Stella. But as they were literally coming from South America, the couple took their seats as the lights dimmed and the show began. Whoever cut together clips of Stella's life and career of Paul uses the song "Nineteen Eighty-Five" as the background music. When Paul himself took the stage to help give Jerry Seinfeld Stella prize, producers use "Band on the Run." As Paul spoke, actually started to break. Very emotional. Wow.

Seinfeld Stella had such a hard on stage with walnut questions when McCartney joked: "We used to greet the family Seinfeld"

The night was a weird. On one hand, it is quite amazing how Yoko Ono has become almost sort beloved grandmother in the extended group The Beatles. After decades of struggle, she and Paul seems quite comfortable now. What was especially poignant was a moment I witnessed between McCartney and Nancy Shevell Olivia Harrison women were just lovely with Yoko, hugging and having intimate chats. Nancy put her hand on the back of Yoko in a very loving way as they spoke.

There is a rich area now as the family of the Beatles has aged. Stella had family present from his mother, uncle and Aunt John Eastmans- Luisa, her mother's brother and Sister Linda. Dhani Harrison-still cannot believe what he calls Stella to her "big sister" and played his favorite song Everly Brothers, and his dad "Live and Let Die". Dhani, incidentally, is married to a beautiful, intelligent, funny girl named Sola Karadottir now Sola Harrison, who has launched a clothing line popular later called GalvanLondon. It looks like a very happy party.



Dhani, of course, has its own group- The New No.2-and having a large film scoring career. His father would be very proud, and of course, his mother Olivia Harrison ES is one of the softest souls, and he has done a miraculous job keeping George's legacy alive. She just released a box set of George's most famous albums, all remastered.

Meanwhile, in which Stella McCartney is always steam it in the newspaper, and his best friends are Liv Tyler and Gwyneth Paltrow. But she is also the mother of 4 children under the age of 9. She has a terrible husband Seinfeld called Alistair who envy for being impeccably dressed at all times. Stella is as down to earth as her late mother Linda and wonderful. You can see why it has generated so many loyal friends. Even the legendary Doris Day, who rarely speaks in public, sent an audio message to be played to the audience. Doris Day! (She and Paul are old friends.) That's saying.

PS Paul McCartney, you know, your father has just reissued two of her albums giant 70s- Wings at the speed of sound, and Venus and Mars-in collector's editions in Concord. They join McCartney, Ram and Band on the Run in the Files collection of McCartney. They are very well done. I hope we get Red Rose Speedway Wings Wildlife and Flowers in the dirt soon. There are also a McCartney tribute package for Christmas, with dozens of artists Pablo songs. McCartney said at the event: "To listen to Bob Dylan doing one of my songs ..." McCartney said, literally, with open eyes. I'm telling you, he's impressed.
