Longtime LIVE NATION U.K. Pres./COO PAUL LATHAM has announced his retirement after over 30 years in the live music industry career, MUSIC WEEK reports.
"It has been my pleasure to know and work with my good friend PAUL LATHAM for 28 years," LIVE NATION U.K. and IRELAND Chairman DENIS DESMOND said. "PAUL's many achievements over the years speak for themselves, not only in the commercial world but also the charities he has tirelessly helped."
“I’ve known PAUL since 1984 when he joined me at the BRISTOL HIPPODROME THEATRE as deputy manager," LIVE NATION IRELAND CEO MIKE ADAMSON said. "It became our joint task to bring this beauty of a theater back into the then 20th century. I could not have had a better companion for achieving the task in hand –- the majority of the antics that took place to achieve this are certainly not printable, but our job was done within record time.
“When all appears muddled, PAUL always has the most succinct answer," he continued. "PAUL is unique, for sure, in many ways - no subtleties, blunt, sees it as it is and uses words that I have never even heard of. The aforementioned mixed with charismatic charm, sharp wit and intellect always have you agreeing with PAUL's point of view or at least howling laughing at the unprintable honesty/truth.”
