He'd have come full circle past humble baggism and be wearing designer bespoke suits a la Clapton. Moving the "what would he be like@ subject one step further, Unfortunately, I don't think we have missed 30 years of groundbreaking Lennon artistry.

I suspect that his 80's 90's and 00's output would have resembled super slick ELO type offerings. Also we would have had a Beatles reunion by now that would have hurt their legacy.

He doesn't seem nearly aged enough.

I dunno, he looks older than Ringo in that impression, to me at least. But then, Ringo looks about 40 instead of 70. But Paul also doesn't look that old, certainly not for his age. Must be something in the old Liverpool water. Or, more likely, the LSD. Although Bob Dylan was supposed to be on that too, didn't help him any. :think:

:heheh:

Got this from another board.... this is pretty good but I doubt he'd look like an old hippie.

that woulda sucked if he turned into a slick ELO style. but why would a reunion have hurt the beatles' legacy?
