TT COMFORTABLE IN HIS DAY JOB

THERE was a time the song When it’s hot in Brisbane, it’s Cool in Gatta was used to promote the southern end of the Gold Coast. It seems a little of that promotional flair has rubbed off on Mayor Tom Tate. At the official launch of HOTA (the artistic venue formerly known as The Arts Centre Gold Coast) he came up with a quip. Standby for side splitting laughter. “The Gold Coast Art Precinct is HOTA than MOMA.” You had to be there.
