A nice little interview with James

We sat down with British musician James McCartney while we were at Outside Lands Music Festival this past weekend in San Francisco. We met up with James (the only son of Paul McCartney) a few hours before his own set on Day 2 of the Festival and we got him to spill on One Direction, his music, and much more!

Check out the highlights from our interview below:

Why Outside Lands? "I got the opportunity to play here and it's in San Francisco. We just played David Letterman, so it was kind of like a follow up from that. We just did a mini-tour."

Describe his Outside Lands set: "Folky, solo, poppy, rocky kind of stuff... just me on my own."

What did you think of Paul's Headlining Show on Friday? "It was amazing. I was up on the standing area and down by the crew a bit." What was your favorite part? "The End."

Thoughts on One Direction? "I haven't really listened to their music, it's not really my cup of tea." "I think all respect to them being successful in the business."

Who do you want to collaborate with? "I think I'm kind of fulfilling my dreams. I collaborate with my dad a bit, so that's cool. That's the best for me."

Any plans to collaborate with your dad in the near future? "If he has time, he's a super busy man."

One thing you always bring on tour? Essentials? "My pendants."

Plans the rest of the summer? "Shows in Holland, Denmark and then just working on some little side projects."

Outside Lands: Paul McCartney is in legendary form

By Jim Harrington

It was a perfect rock 'n' roll moment.

The trees were lit in shades of purple, blurred to just the right extent by a heavy haze of moist fog. A sea of arms waved under the bright spotlights from the stage. Smiles were everywhere.

Tens of thousands of voices joined in song, led by the man who arguably qualifies as rock 'n' roll's greatest living legend.

Paul McCartney.

That's the snapshot that will likely remain with me for years to come from Day One (Friday) of the 2013 Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival.

We've probably all heard "Hey Jude" played countless times. Yet, not like this. Not like it sounded -- and, more importantly, felt -- on a cool summer's evening in the middle of San Francisco's gorgeous Golden Gate Park, with a legion of fans cherishing the opportunity to join the former Beatle on perhaps his greatest anthem.

"Hey Jude" was the apex of the performance -- and, indeed, the entire first day of the festival. Yet, it was just one of dozens of great songs performed during McCartney's nearly three-hour set.

At 71, this Liverpool native still ranks as one of best entertainers in the business. He sounded fantastic as he led his stellar band through such Beatles classics as "Eight Days a Week," "Paperback Writer," "The Long and Winding Road," "Blackbird" and "Let It Be."

It was a fantastic start to what should be an overall solid weekend of music, continuing through Sunday.

It'll be downright amazing if I see anything more impressive than McCartney at Outside Lands. But -- who knows? -- maybe I'll be amazed.
