Overview
- McCartney headlined a private Apple Park concert for employees Tuesday night, which Tim Cook opened by calling him a pioneer and one of the most influential artists of all time.
- Performing under the campus rainbow stage, he delivered a career-spanning set of Beatles, Wings and solo songs, and Apple has not announced any public release of the show.
- Employees marked the milestone with limited-edition gifts that included a T-shirt, a poster and an enamel pin featuring the 50th logo.
- The Apple appearance followed two phone-free Fonda Theatre shows in Los Angeles over the weekend, where a brief joke about President Trump’s dance moves drew boos and a celebrity crowd looked on.
- After sharing a Dropbox link of Fonda photos, McCartney’s Reddit account briefly appeared banned, which Reddit later said was a technical bug.
