"Crew members on the set of the singer’s concert are up in arms because the staunch vegetarian has banned the eating of meat by anyone working on the tour.

“It’s completely crazy,” one worker in Oslo, Norway, where the former Beatle is performing tonight, told the paper Aftenposten, according to our translator. “We’re supposed to work from eight till eight each day, and aren’t served anything but salad and vegetarian food. I can’t live without meat doing this kind of work, and will defy the ban and bring my own lunch packet with meat.” According to another local report, the crew is also forbidden from wearing leather belts or shoes.

“We can’t control what they do in their spare time,” a spokesman for the concert organizers told Aftenposten. “But as long as they’re inside the stadium area, it’s correct that they are banned from eating meat.”

I don't condem anyone for their choices in life, but to pushh their belief's on others is wrong.

If McCarthy is opposed to eating meat, fine... but he shouldn't expect everyone he works with to deprive themselves of the foods that they eat.

So if someone that goes to his concert and munches on a hotdog, are they going to be kicked out? He won't find too many people in the audiance with that kind of attitude. IMO

Leave it to a European who's spent too much time touring America to pull a stunt like that!
