Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate celebrated the announcement that global music icon Sir Paul McCartney will play a concert in the city as part of his recently announced tour – by “doing an Abbey Road’’ outside the HOTA precinct.
“Better still, I’ll rename the thoroughfare Abbey Road just for a day as we celebrate the announcement,” he said.
“Life’s too short to take ourselves seriously. We love the news about Sir Paul McCartney and want everyone to know that the McCartney concert is a chance to visit, enjoy the music and stay on. Make it a long weekend with the Melbourne Cup on the Tuesday after.”
The concert is at Heritage Bank Stadium on November 4.
