Today we tackle the issue of whether Paul and Ringo should still perform live in light of recent concerts on TV and in person.

What are some things John Lennon shouldn't have done in his career -- or, what things should he have done more of? Listen to this episode all about John and some of his wise and more questionable career moves. [program note correction: it was mentioned in this episode that Lennon's final live performance was on the 1975 Grammys, but his actual final performance before a live audience was actually on April 18, 1975, for "A Salute to Sir Lew Grade."]
