Good for them! Hope they, as well as the audience, enjoy the gig!
I laughed when lennon got shot?

It's Paul McCartney. I'd be more surprised if you said "whoa, the tickets are cheap".

Inevitably some Manics fans in the crowd are going to sing the original line, they'll get some weird looks.

I'd laugh if the Manics actually played it in their set!

I can imagine Nicky getting carried away by the song and actually singing (or rather shouting) that line, he still does it sometimes. That man can't control his mouth.

If they weren't so high-profile they might get away with it: even by Manics standards Motown Junk's lyrics are pretty much incomprehensible to the untrained ear...

Fun gig ... no? I saw Macca at Fenway here in Boston last summer and it was blindin'. I'm a huge Beatles fan ... and while I know its not an apples to apples comparison to seeing the Beatles, old Macca still put on a cracking, near 3 hour show with plenty to appease the fans ...

... throw the Manics into that mix, and that would be a pretty effing great gig ... for me at least.
