MCCARTNEY TICKLES IVORIES – AND HEARTS – AT HOTEL BAR

PAUL MCCARTNEY

HARD DAY'S NIGHT!

Talk about being in the right place at the right time: A friend of ours dropped by the Beverly Wilshire hotel bar for a quick drink — and witnessed an impromptu concert she can't stop gushing about when PAUL MCCARTNEY strolled in for a belt with "SNL" and "Tonight Show" super-producer LORNE MICHAELS, then complimented in-house piano man DANA BRONSON, saying: "You really know how to play!"

Mr. Beatle then parked it beside Bronson, tickling the ivories with him for a staggering TWO HOURS as the swooning crowd ooh-ed and aah-ed!
