Paul McCartney Beatles jacket blue autographs Nancy Shevell couple paparazzi

At 68-years-old, former Beatle Paul McCartney actually made it through a mass of 20-somethings all tripped out at the Coachella music festival in the desert outside LA this weekend. And he celebrated his survival with dinner at Osteria Mozza Saturday night in the safety and security of Hollywood.

Question is ... which is the tougher crowd -- Coachella or the paparazzi of LA???
