McCartney plays Liverpool's Cavern again
Music legend Paul McCartney played a secret gig at Liverpool’s Cavern Club last night, it emerged today.
Macca was in his birth city for the final date of his Back In The World tour tomorrow .
He played three songs, including Let It Be and We Are Family, at the crew’s end-of-tour party.
The ex-Beatle’s pregnant wife Heather attended the party, along with around 150 crew members and a few of McCartney’s close friends and family.
The Cavern was the notoriously crowded and smoky basement club where the Beatles played at the start of their rise to fame.
The original Cavern was bulldozed in the 1980s but a replica was created just a few feet along Mathew Street.
Cavern owner Bill Heckle said: “Paul was really dancing the night away, enjoying every minute of the evening.
“He was incessantly on the dance floor with Heather.”
The club was given a Moroccan makeover for the party and decorated with plants and beanbags.
McCartney will have played to two million fans by the end of his concert tomorrow at a specially built outdoor arena at Kings Dock, Liverpool.
He plans to mark the occasion by giving a Volkswagen Beetle to one lucky audience member.
