When he and Heather were still married, a couple of years back, there would be a story from time to time in the Life section of my local (Reno, NV) paper about sightings of them up at Lake Tahoe. Apparently, they like to go do some skiing during lulls in Paul's touring schedule. At night, they would hang out among the commoners sitting in a favorite pub, listening to live music. Paul would be very cool and would shout out song requests toward the stage to the musicians. And it's never a Beatles tune or one of his own. It's always an old favorite, like a Chuck Berry or James Brown song, for instance.
I bet the bands were nervous as hell to be playing requests for a real Beatle.
Mills, I don't believe anything coming from her. She could be telling the truth but she's shot her reputation all to hell in this fiasco. At least he hasn't let it affect his music.
Glad to hear he doesn't request his own stuff. I've read he's a perfectionist when it comes to recording music so few bands could do the Beatles justice. Wonder if he ever heard Delp's Beatlejuice?

I think "20 Flight Rock" was the song he played for Lennon at one of their first meetings.
