Short story:

Shane MacGowan celebrates his 60th birthday with a concert at The National Concert Hall, Dublin, Ireland, Europe. Johnny Depp, Bono, Nick Cave, Sinead O'Connor, former Catatonia frontwoman Cerys Matthews, Primal Scream singer Bobby Gillespie, Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols, Blondie's Clem Burke and Carl Barat of The Libertines perform at the event. A somewhat frail-looking MacGowan is wheeled onto the stage by his partner Victoria Mary Clarke, and performs before the audience sings an impromptu version of Happy Birthday.
