MILLIONAIRE mining magnate Clive Palmer has praised Sunshine Coast Irish band McGuinness & Co on Twitter for their performance at the recent launch of Titanic II in New York.
The band played at the lavish event held on board retired aircraft carrier USS Interprid, in front of world leaders and guests.
The blueprints for Palmer’s Titanic II project were unveiled at the event.
Mr Palmer said the band perfectly suited the Titanic’s “true atmospherics”.
