Tel Aviv — The two surviving members of the original Fab Four, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, will perform in Israel this spring.

“We hope to play some of our songs in Hebrew,” McCartney announced, “although it’s a challenge. ‘Hello, hello, I don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello’ definitely loses in translation as ‘Shalom, shalom, I don’t know why you say shalom, I say shalom.’”
