Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney reunite in Liverpool! Music legends greet students outside the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts
Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney reunited in Liverpool on Friday for a special visit to the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA). The American singer, 75, is currently in the city for two shows at Liverpool Stadium as part of his Land Of Hope and Dreams tour. Bruce has previously described performing in Merseyside as a long-held dream come true, crediting The Beatles as a major influence on his musical journey. And on Friday, The Born in the USA singer was reunited with one of his heroes, as Sir Paul, 82, returned to his hometown. The legendary singer appeared in great spirits as he arrived at the institute he co-founded with Mark Featherstone-Witty in 1996. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A large crowd of students gathered outside the venue, eagerly waiting for Sir Paul's autograph. Meanwhile, Bruce was reportedly ushered in through a separate entrance before later stepping outside to greet the students. One fan looked visibly emotional as he greeted Sir Paul with a warm hug. Although Paul did not attend LIPA, he played a pivotal role in its founding. In 1992, while preparing for his Liverpool Oratorio, he visited his former school, the Liverpool Institute for Boys, which had been closed since 1985. Upon seeing the building's dilapidated state, he pledged to restore it. Four years later, LIPA was established on the same site, co-founded by Paul and Mark as a hub for aspiring performers. Sir Paul remains actively involved with the institution, serving as lead patron, attending graduations, and hosting masterclasses. Bruce and Paul's reunion is certain to fuel speculation about a possible on-stage collaboration during Bruce's final Liverpool show on Saturday. But It wouldn't be the first time the two icons have shared a stage. In 2022, Bruce famously joined Sir Paul during his headline set at Glastonbury. They've also performed together at Hyde Park and MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. During his electrifying first show at Anfield on Wednesday, Bruce paid tribute to The Beatles, declaring: 'It is great for us to be in Liverpool where, for us, it all began.' The New Jersey native was in his teens when The Beatles made their U.S. debut on The Ed Sullivan Show, a moment that profoundly influenced him. He closed the night with a rousing cover of Twist and Shout, a track made iconic by The Beatles in 1963, though originally recorded by The Top Notes.
