Coda: McCartney, vampires and M.I.A. and Neil Young-inspired charts

There will be more McCartney next week. (Tracy Woodward/TWP)

Paul McCartney was our main topic this week. First came the news that he would be the third recipient of the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. So that led us to ponder a bunch of questions: 1) Which songs would comprise the dream McCartney setlist? 2) Who should win the next Gershwin Prize? 3) Why are the Jonas Brothers one of the artists honoring McCartney? We examined the soundtracks for some new vampire movies, the M.I.A. vs. New York Times timeline and reviewed a whole bunch of shows, including Brad Paisley, Michael Mayer, Visqueen and Coheed and Cambria. And the Neil Young review inspired The New Yorker to make a chart. See you next week.
