Acts including No Doubt and Dave Grohl played Beatles songs at a US gala on Sunday to celebrate Sir Paul McCartney and other winners of a cultural award.
Sir Paul had earlier received a Kennedy Center honour along with Oprah Winfrey, choreographer Bill T Jones, composer Jerry Herman and singer Merle Haggard.
Receiving his medallion at a White House dinner on Saturday, Sir Paul said “great things just come in bundles”.
The ex-Beatle was at the US President’s home in June to receive another award.
“I am a big fan of this president, and I think he’s a great man who’s got some difficulties,” Sir Paul said at Saturday’s event, hosted by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
