Dreams can come true


 





There is a Paul fan in the UK named Dominic (Instagram: HofnerGuitar) who purchased a 10-foot-tall Hofner bass that is a replica of the bass Paul McCartney plays.   He has displayed this bass at various places around England:  The Beatles statues in Liverpool and the Cavern Club being two big places.  His bass was featured on the UK Antique Roadshow.  

But Dominic had a dream for his giant bass: to have Paul McCartney sign it. Paul has announced that he no longer signs things for fans.  Many people thought it was crazy for Dominic to think that Paul would sign a gigantic replica of his instrument.  But he would not give up and was determined to get that signature. 

He took the bass to the limo-watch in Manchester, which got Paul's attention!  He motioned for him to bring the bass inside!  But he couldn't get past the security because it didn't happen in Manchester.  But he did not give up -- on the Paul concerts in London, and guess what?   Paul signed it before the last concert.  Success!!!
