Like I Need a Hole in My Head: A Double Mocha McCartney
Posted on March 21st, 2007 by Josh Hathaway
Sir Paul McCartney is the first artist to sign with the new Starbucks label. “There’s a good idea,” he said, sarcastically. Fuckin’ hell! How completely nauseating.
A few questions to ponder:
- Which will have more kick: Sir Paul’s new record or the Double Mocha Machiato?
- Which will cost more: A ducat to a Sir Paul concert or the Double Mocha Machiato?
- What will Starbucks sell more of: Sir Paul’s new record or the Double Mocha Machiato?
- Is there such a thing as a Double Mocha Machiato?
I reluctantly had to admit his most recent album, Chaos and Creation was not completely embarrassing shit, but the cracks in his amour are showing. Sir Paul is on borrowed time and aligning himself with one of the titans of The Land of Corporate Stupid seems to bring his foot closer to the proverbial banana peel.
Our only hope is that the pain of Paul’s personal life will inspire and inform some great songs- or some great coffee.
The problem with music is that it’s made by musicians.
