| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Sir Paul McCartney played an historic concert in Tel Aviv, Israel on Thursday, more than 40 years after the Beatles were banned in 1965 for having "no artistic merit"

According to Sky News, "Macca's gig is still controversial" 

He has faced death threats from Islamic extremists for playing in Israel and will be guarded like any other VIP visiting the country.

He has also been criticised by some Palestinians who argue for the boycott of Israel by foreign artists.

And where did the former Beatle stay? Why, he stayed at the Dan Tel Aviv Hotel of course.  Dan Hotel is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World and according to their site "offers Tel Aviv's finest accommodation".
