SEATTLE -- A crowd of 45,000 fans got an extra surprise at the end of the Paul McCartney concert at Safeco Field, when members of Nirvana joined him on stage.
It's not the first time Sir Paul & Nirvana have collaborated. They also played together during the December 2012 Hurricane Sandy relief concert.
The event was the first-ever public concert at Safeco Field.
It took 250 people, 31 trucks of gear and 70,000 watts of audio equipment to get the stadium ready for the show and the crowds that came with it. The preparation work included laying down a protective surface to protect the field from forklifts and other machinery setting up the stage in center field.
Fans told KING 5 they'd go just about anywhere to see Sir Paul perform, but the setting made this show even more of a must-see.
"It's such a beautiful Seattle day," said Judy Qualls. "And we get to see a legend."
After the concert, crews will work through the weekend, removing everything and preparing for the Monday night Mariners game.

A CARICOM Associate Institution
CDB - Caribbean Development Bank
CDB is based in Barbados.
CDB was established in 1969 and became fully operational in 1970.
Legal Instruments:
CDB is an Associate Institution of the Caribbean Community recognised under Article 22 of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas (RTC).
OVERVIEW
The Caribbean Development Bank is a regional financial institution, which was established by an Agreement signed on October 18, 1969, in Kingston, Jamaica, and entered into force on January 26, 1970. The Bank came into existence for the purpose of contributing to the harmonious economic growth and development of member countries in the Caribbean, and promoting economic cooperation and integration among them, having special and urgent regard to the needs of the less developed members of the Region. Read more in the Agreement Establishing CDB.
Canada/Commonwealth Caribbean Conference
After a Canada/Commonwealth Caribbean Conference in 1966, a recommendation was made that a study be conducted to investigate the possibility of establishing a financial institution to serve the Commonwealth Caribbean countries and territories. The report, submitted by a team of experts in July 1967, recommended the establishment of a Caribbean Development Bank with an initial capital of $50 million. This report was considered and accepted at a meeting of officials in Georgetown, Guyana in August of the same year and a committee formed to prepare the draft agreement and finalise the details for the Bank’ establishment. This draft Agreement was submitted in 1968 and adopted after meetings held at the ministerial level. A preparatory committee for the Bank’s establishment was set up and a project director appointed. Assistance was received from the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (later called the World Bank), the Inter-American Development Bank and the United Nations Development Programme.
