Paul McCartney to sign autographs in London

Paul McCartney will be signing copies of his great Fireman album, "Electric Arguments," Dec. 21 at the HMV store, 150 Oxford St., London, says NME.com (at http://www.nme.com/news/paul-mccartney/41670). The session begins at 10 a.m. local time.

To be eligible to have your copy of the album signed, you'll have to have a special wristband, which the store will start distributing at 10 a.m. Dec. 18. NME says that only copies of "Electric Arguments" will be signed.

For anyone wondering if Paul might be coming to the U.S. to sign, his U.S. press rep told us a U.S. signing session was "not likely."
