Seriously, from the audience when he’s with his band, it’s all like the real thing. He looks and sounds identical the same. Up close and without the band, not so much. Good show and very emotional for a lifetime fan, but nobody else is the real Sir Paul.
When McCartney saw me perform in London. he said "that guy who portrays me is a good musician.. I wish him well".. also a quote from Sir George Martin. "Tony You sound so much like McCartney. I can't record your original music, cause I already work with Paul". LOL comments that, I remember and cherish. the other negitive comments are irrelevant.
Great work Tony.It takes a real musician to pull off that role & ignore "the profane"as mentioned in The Memoirs Of Billy Shears.I'd really like to get your take on that issue about the rumor that refuses to die: ua-cam.com/video/3I6B1nJexOA/v-deo.html Thanks,Joaquin On Bass
@@Joaquinonbasstheelectriklovein Tony is doing pretty good👍🏼You read Memoirs too..?I did,still think it's basically ficion.Seriously doubt the rumor to be true.(What about you BTW)
YOU are embarrassing yourself by saying that!!! If you don't like the guy, then just say so. There's NO need for critical judgements based on absolutely NOTHING!!!
If I were him, I’d re-train myself to play left-handed. That goes a really long way toward helping to sell the illusion. It kinda crumbles when you see him play like John and George. 😊
Tony is an extremely talented guy! Probably the Best McCartney impersonator today. You really can't judge him from this little clip, you can't judge anybody from a 5 min. clip. I have worked with all the Top McCartney guys out there and I can tell you that No one tear up a show like Tony ! He's amazing on stage! He's also a very charismatic, and funny guy to just hang out with.
Tony started in Broadways Beatlemania back in 1977/78. Looks like he had some work done since then. He’s got to be in his mid 60’s now. Wish he played left handed. One thing he did not mention was he was only one of about 6/7 guys to play Paul in Beatlemania. The show got so big on Broadway, they hired others to create more bunks for Chicago, LA, Boston, along with back up players due to the amount of shows. Many of the Paul's were right handed, and some were in fact left handed.
I went all thru high school with Tony at Canyon del Oro High in Tucson. Grad with him in '73. We had some classes together.....I clearly remember he and I throwing spit balls at people and at each other. Good guy....so cool to see him achieve what he has. I saw him here in Tucson with Beatlemania twice......I'll tell you what.....those boys KICKED ASS. Sounded so frickkin' good. Tony and I are both 67 in 2022 for the record. joel in tucson
It's bizarre, I first heard Tony when he did a stint as bass player and lead singer in Wishbone Ash, on the excellent album "illuminations" and I thought: "This guy really sounds like Paul McCartney" !!
Billy/ Faul/ Macca 2 is right handed and always plays drums right handed. He learned to play bass and guitar left handed so he could become very rich indeed.
Pov: The Real Paul McCartney learnt Drums right handed he plays like Ringo (But more dominantly left handed) and he even plays Left Handed Trumpet look at him when he was old.@@MisterTMH
If I stood back about a mile and squinted my eye, I might start to think he looks like Paul McCartney. It would have to be dark. And I'd have to have something in my other eye. He sounds just as good as he looks.
@@yogibear7380 YOU are actually garbage for saying something like that!!!! It's one thing to not like the guy, but name calling is totally inappropriate and unacceptable. Crawl back into your hole, troll!!!
Hi Paul I was in Houston just a few weeks ago. we performed to a sold out audience, By the way i am doing the show now for over 40 years. thanks for the nice comments. when I met Paul McCartney he said he loved my show.
OK Tucson! Who remembers the band that played at the Smugglers Inn and other places early 70's? They played mostly all Beatles and I won't say my old friends real name but TOAD looked allot like Paul at that time thin, dark hair and facial hair. Last time I saw Toad he was still playing and had a sound board that took up his whole small Estes home living room. Guitars all around the walls etc etc etc. He was really into Al Di Meola and I suggested he check out Roy Buchanan. I hope he sees this and has a laugh!
For those saying that they could not have possibly replaced Paul McCartney because they couldn't have found somebody that looked and sounded like him case closed

Although this guy is good looking, he looks nothing like either of the two Paul McCartneys - the real one or the guy Bill Shepherd who currently plays him
If you're going to dedicate that much of your life to being Paul McCartney, why not at least learn to play the guitar left handed. Him playing it right handed ruins it completely for me.
He does look quite a bit like the real McCartney. He can very much imitate Paul's current tone of voice. Not quite as impressed with the "Yesterday" rendition. But, he does very, very well as McCartney normally. His inflections and mannerisms are strikingly like the original McCartney. Fun, really.
if kishman plays guitar & bass left-handedly, he would probably the best impersonator just like gary "lennon" gibson, gavin "harrison" pring & greg "starr" george
The original Paul McCartney was left handed PID JPM 66. This guy is right handed. Billy Shears 66 to present (Macca2) was left buy learnt to play right handed. Tina Fosters book Plastic Macha covers it all and the internet has made it easier. RIP JPM66.
He was actually one of the McCartney's in 1965. When they received their MBE they got interviewed a couple of days later, and there this guy was sitting at Paul's place. While the "real" Paul (the first one) died in 1966 they found Billy who had written a book about The Beatles and he became Paul McCartney to this day. Now this guy acts like a tribute to "Paul McCartney" and Billy (Faul).
Danske... Ridiculous. But while youre here, one question. How thick is the Earth? And where do people go when they fall off the edge? Into Space, or another Dimension?
I'd like to have this man as my neighbour: I already have a friend who looks quite a lot like John Lennon. If they come together at my place, it would be fun. 'Cause in real life the original Paul & John can't show up. How I wish I could meet Paul for fifteen minutes... Can anybody help me with that? I don't live far from Brussel(s), quite close to London. PLEASE PAUL, it's on the road from London to Hamburg.
U may have his looks & kind of sound like him, but Paul is left handed & UR right handed, if your going to impersonate him then u must hold your guitar like him, the band-The Fab Four, the guy who does Paul holds his guitar like Paul so he can be him, those 4 guys go out of their way to make sure that they are The Fab Four, looks playing & sound. So, if u want to be Paul, then start playing left handed like he does.
Strange but true story,........I know a guy who has a "speech" disorder,....which makes him sound like he's from Liverpool,...he's an American,....never did impersonations, doesn't have any relatives from there either. Though in college he used to use his voice defect to get the girls interested in himself. He and I would work as a team,....I would engage him in conversation,.....asking whether he had heard from John or Paul,.....we'd be out in public at a social event where strangers could overhear our conversations. It is so uncanny,.....I laugh every time we get together. I guess he sounds the most like Paul,..though it is more of a hybrid version.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I pretend to be
Hahahaha
Nice.
Nice one.

No, you are not.
"Looks like Paul McCartney" --- until he picks up a guitar. LOL
He doesn't come anywhere near what Paul looks like. My choice is Mitch weissman dead ringer.

Billy Shears always had a different gig.

He looks more like Cartoon Paul from The Beatles Saturday morning cartoon.
If the Beatles cartoon show got a live action film he would play him
