From NME, February 17, 2005:
PAUL McCARTNEY has taken to the stage at the SHOCKWAVES NME AWARDS to pick up the award for BEST EVENT for GLASTONBURY.

McCartney had a packed Pyramid Stage enthralled with a two-hour gig that had the 80,000 crowd singing along passionately to every word, and knocked out the hits including ’Yesterday’, ‘Got To Get You Into My Life’, ‘We Can Work It Out’ and ‘Blackbird’.
