Thoughts on Paul's Voice

Saw Paul on this season's SNL finale.

Not the first time in recent months that Paul's voice is pretty weak. Relying on band to cover him. I'm saddened.

EDIT: Lots of know-it-all criticism here.

How in the hell is this knocking his body of work?

Did I ever say he should stop performing?

I know he's amazing and has been doing super-long great concerts in recent years. With amazing energy.

I've loved him since the live Ed Sullivan shows.

You don't notice his voice has changed? Not supposed to say that out loud?

No shit people get old. That's saying the same thing. How dare you say people get old!

What if he lost his voice entirely? How much would you pay to go see him play bass? Name your top price.

Go away, you juvenile contrarians.

I was having SO much fun with it. Great surprise to grapple across a room or open space into someone's face.

:(

EDIT: I don't see them in the Buy Station. Maybe there are some in chests?

EDIT: I found some lying around.

I've received a couple of no thanks letters from SNL, the first one was in late 1975/early 1976 (which I can't find,) after I mailed in my resume, I had a small amount of TV production experience.

The letter pictured here came in 1995, along with my returned herewith VHS tape of comedy material I had produced that year, for Public Access, not my paid job.

Turns out, they can't even look at submitted tapes, to avoid being accused of stealing material. You've gotta have an agent and all of that.

Most Fun year of my life, though.

EDIT: this letter was not from 1995. More like 1985. I got mixed up. I did produce some satisfying stuff in 1995.
