An exhibition celebrating the solo career of Paul McCartney post-Beatles will open in Liverpool on 2 Aug. Organised by students from the McCartney supported Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) – 'The Solo Years: Paul McCartney' will be held at the Beatles Story museum, apparantly in response to fans' demands.
Jerry Goldman, Director of the Beatles Story told reporters: "I was recently made very aware, in addition to everything that Paul has achieved in his career, of his influence on the new generation".
The exhibition is set to include a video message from McCartney, telling the audience of his involvement with LIPA, which opened in 1996 in the building that once housed the school McCartney went to as a child.
McCartney says: "It's great that my old school is now back in use helping the next generations. It's exciting that once again my home town will be the world's target for tomorrow's talent."
