Sir Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen silenced by noise curfew

Bruce Springsteen and Sir Paul McCartney were silenced by organisers of a London concert this weekend due to a sound 'curfew'.

The two singers had been performing in Hyde Park on Saturday evening when their microphones were cut off.

Sir Paul had joined Springsteen on stage at the Hard Rock Calling music festival following a performance by the American rock star that had lasted more than three hours.

The US singer greeted Sir Paul saying "I've been waiting for this for 50 years", according to members of the audience.

But after singing two Beatles hits ("I Saw Her Standing There" and "Twist and Shout")both performers were forced to leave the stage in silence after their sound equipment was turned off - meaning they were unable to thank the audience.

The three-day event has a nightly noise curfew imposed at 10.30pm and Springsteen, who had been playing with his E Street Band, was due to play only from 7pm until 10.15pm.  "

" New U2 Album in 2013, Mercury Records Says
Posted: July 13, 2012
By: Matt McGee / @mattmcgee

Mercury Records, which is U2's label in the UK, has apparently announced that U2 will release its next album in 2013. The news was reported a few hours ago in a pair of tweets by the London-based Music Week.

   New #Metallica, #U2, #ArcadeFire and #NoahAndTheWhale albums coming next year, Mercury Records has confirmed #musicnews

   "2013 could be one of the best years Mercury's ever had," said UK label president Jason Iley.

Iley is a friend of U2's going back many years. In fact, U2 left Island Records in the UK for Mercury Records in part, the story goes, because the band wanted to continue working with him. So, he would seem to know what he's talking about.

I'd just add this caution: U2's record labels have previously announced when new albums would be released, and U2 has sometimes missed those target dates (think Pop). Mercury may expect a new album next year, but U2 generally decides when it's ready to put out a new album, whether the label likes it or not.

Still not bored of the attention! Paul McCartney is mobbed by fans as he leaves restaurant... but it doesn't look like he minds

He was one quarter of the most successful band of all time.

So you would think that Sir Paul McCartney would be a little jaded when it comes to excessive attention from fans by now.

However the 70-year-old looked more than happy to indulge his admirers last night as he left the Cecconi restaurant in Mayfair.

The star had enjoyed dinner with his wife Nancy Shevell and Bruce Springsteen and his wife Patti Scialfa.

The fans were so excited to see Paul that they made it nearly impossible for him to reach his car.

Paul was gracious as he posed for photos, despite the obvious inconvenience.


He signed with his hands to say everything was fine as he finally made it to his car.

The singer had certainly had a bothersome night, having been silenced midway through an appearance on stage with Springsteen earlier in the evening.

Bruce's microphone was cut off at the end of his headlining slot at Hard Rock Calling in Hyde Park last night when he broke the sound curfew.

The legendary singer had been playing for more than three hours when he was joined on stage by Sir Paul McCartney for an encore.

However, the musical veterans both found their microphones silenced before they could address the crowds as it became clear they had defied the strict curfew by half an hour.

Before the subdued ending, the pair had delighted the crowds by collaborating on the final two songs of Springsteen's 29 song set, I Saw Her Standing There and Twist and Shout.

Paul McCartney's New Album to Be Produced by Mark Ronson

Rumors are circulating that Paul McCartney has hired Mark Ronson to produce his new album. Adding fuel to the fire, the two were recently spotted at a New York studio working together.

A source told the Sunday Mirror about the studio session, "This week they went to the studio and started knocking about together to see what they can do together. Everybody's really excited about the prospect of Mark working with Paul."

The source also added, "Paul respects Mark's knowledge and is wanting to produce a classic album with a young hip edge. And obviously Mark is over the moon to be working with a Beatle." The new album will reportedly be more contemporary as opposed to McCartney's previous record, "Kisses on the Bottom", which featured jazz covers.

Ronson has previously worked with Adele, Christina Aguilera and Lily Allen among other big names. In 2008, he won a Grammy for Producer of the Year for his work with Amy Winehouse on the album "Back to Black." In more recent events, he is credited for bringing back a more '80s feel to Duran Duran's "All You Need is Now" album.

McCartney performed in London with Bruce Springsteen on Saturday, July 13 but their performance was cut short. Springsteen had already gone past the curfew by half an hour when McCartney popped up onstage to perform "I Saw Her Standing There" and "Twist and Shout", both tracks from The Beatles.

The singer and producer met at McCartney's wedding to Nancy Shevell in 2011 where Ronson was the DJ.  "

Arlen to Nancy: He's A Keeper

The honey-pie phase continues for His Royal Beatleness, Paul McCartney, and his blushing bride, Nancy Shevell. The rock legend is building Nancy, 51, whom he married in October, a new home. "Paul is renovating a penthouse condo in Winter Park, Fla., for Nancy," a source tells Star.

The 70-year-old music icon already has homes in London, Arizona, East Hampton, N.Y., Beverly Hills, East Sussex in the U.K. and New York CIty. But this abode has a special meaning-it's close to Nancy's son, Arlen, who's is a student at nearby Rollins College. "He's graduating in 2014," the source said. "So he'll be there for at least two more years. Paul knows how important Arlen is to Nancy, and he wanted her to be as happy as possible."

Nancy clearly brought a new level of happiness to her bighearted hubby since going through a draining divorce from Heather Mills.

"Paul is in such a good place in his relationship," the source continued. "He wants to be the perfect husband to Nancy." We'll just assume Sir Paul is motivated by love-not the desire to make Heather jealous of his largess.  "

SIR PAUL McCARTNEY TO PERFORM FOR JUST £1($1.56)

Musi superstars including Sir Paul McCartney and One Direction are being paid £1 to sing at the Olympic opening and closing ceremonies.

All of the headlining acts will pocket the minute nominal fee to appear, regardless of fame or status.

Performers such as Jessie J, George Michael, and Take That will initially be out of pocket as they still have to pay full rates for their band, backing singers, make-up artists and crew.

Our source said: "Macca could earn up to £1million ($1.5 million) for a one-off gig but even he is being paid a token pound coin.

"But with four billion people watching around the world, potential earnings from record sales could be huge."

All acts will have to sing live thanks to a condition in their Olympics contracts. "

' what is brother jb doing in London this weekend  ?   '

" Music heard coming from the stadium in recent days ranges from "Jerusalem" - of course - to songs by The Beatles, The Who, the Sex Pistols, and Vangelis' theme from "Chariots of Fire."

There are also songs by newer acts, including Dizzee Rascal and Tinie Tempah, two homegrown stars forged in the gritty London environment that Boyle is celebrating.

The final act will be former Beatle Paul McCartney - due to lead the audience ( with jb attending ) in a sing-along of "Hey Jude," with thousands of voices urging "take a sad song and make it better."
