Here's a link to info on the Beatles tribute concert:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...e-concert.html
This is from Jeff Lynne's FB page about the Beatles tribute:
Jeff Lynne was among the many music icons who took the stage last night at the Los Angeles Convention Center to tape a very special Beatles tribute show, "The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute To The Beatles." It will air on CBS Sunday, February 9th, at 8pm, exactly 50 years to the day, date and time of The Beatles' first appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show."
Jeff performs twice: With Dhani Harrison on background vocals and rhythm guitar, and Joe Walsh on lead guitar on "Something," and then again with Dave Grohl (on guitar) on "Hey, Bulldog."
Joe also did While My Guitar Gently Weeps with Gary Clark Jr. and Dave Grohl on drums and and at end of the show they did Hey Jude with all guests on vocals. It is a 3 hours+ show and will be awesome... at least that's what Steve Lukather told me.
I can post the entire setlist and who did what song if anyone is interested to see.
Also tons of photos on the internet.

This needs it's own thread! Miss Soda?.........
I would try, but would probably mess it all up! :lol:
Thanks for that link, Michaela. Those pictures of Joe are incredible!!! :nod:
This definitely needs its own topic. As soon as I get on a normal computer instead of the iPad I'm currently using, I'll move things around.
Nice to hear from you, Michaela!
thanks for the link loving it

Don't forget the Beatles tribute this Sunday. I'm really looking forward to it and seeing Joe too.
Me too, shun!
Love those pics above! Joe looks fantastic! :thumbsup:
I look on my guide and the special will be 2 and a half hours. I'm glad its that long. I was afraid they were going to cut it down to an hour. The Beatles deserve those 2 and a half hours.You can't fit an hour heck two hours worth of talent for one show.
Wow!Quote:

Tonight's the night everyone!
what time?...what channel?
Its about to come on in a few minutes on cbs
Maroon 5 starting off the show.
Great job by Jeff Lynne, Dhani Harrison and Joe Walsh.
Joe did a great job with the guitar solos.
I just saw Joe in the audience right next to Ringo.
Joe's on. And he's singing too. He didn't sing earlier.
Now that's how you do it. Joe brought down the house with his guitar solo. The audience was soo into it. Gary Clark Jr was good. Even thoguh I don't even know who he is. I was thinking to myself. Gary. Learn the master. This is how you do it. LOL
I was surprise Joe sang since he didn't sing Something with Jeff Lynne and Dhani Harrison.
Which song did Joe sing?
Joe was having too much fun in the audience.
While My Guitar Gently Weeps. He shares lead with Gary Clark Jr on the song. Not just one line either.Quote:

YONO OKO was having a LOT of fun. She might have been a little too high!
Happy to report that Joe is trending on Twitter right now. Go Joe! It must be great because people are going nuts from his performance. Hope someone posts it online so I get to see it.
Just got back from an all-day trip to Memphis a lot later than I thought I would. Thank goodness I recorded it. I can't wait to watch!
Go Joe!!! That's great for Joe. New fans for Joe.
Joe comes back out on stage with all the performers for the finale to sing Hey Jude.
OMG Joe's performance on While My Guitar Gently Weeps took my breath away!!!! He is a flat out guitar GOD.
Oh my gosh - it didn't record! Hopefully this shows up on YouTube. So upset!
I've never seen Joe's twitter feed go so crazy before. I just saw this statistic:
"3,619,548 people could have seen 'Joe Walsh' since its 1st mention until it became a Trending Topic."
yes he is
The whole show was fantastic.
I loved Imagine Dragon and their Revolution
it was all just too fantastic.
The parallels are amazing. George/Joe Ringo/Don
Maybe in a few years they will be doing an Eagles tribute
IMO One of the best performance of the night. Yes he is. I loved his guitar solo in Something too, but its something about While My Guitar Gently Weeps that just made Joe shine more. This was the best song to show Joe's mean guitar skills.Quote:

Well - If there is frenzied excitement in social media about Joe's performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, it is no wonder -he was absolutely incredible. He did great on Something as well. As a big Beatles fan, I really enjoyed the entire show, but, of course, Joe was the highlight for me.
Me too, IABAD. Other than Paul and Ringo performing, Joe was the highlight of the show.Quote:

Its cool that Joe is trending on Twitter. Joe probably made new fans again tonight.
It was good to see Peter Frampton too. He did some great solos when they doing Ringo segment. A friend of mines was at the taping and she was telling me on Facebook that she was telling her son that that old guy sure knows how to play the guitar! She didn't realize it was Peter. LOL
I was pissed off that Gary Clark Jr tried to "play over" Joe. It was disrespectful. He is well loved amongst new young guitarists but I never "got" him although I'm definitely in the minority there. But to try to drown him out was totally wrong. Still, Joe handled it a like a pro and kept on playing. I also thought that he really isn't that great compared to younger guys/new guys like Derek Trucks, Keith Urban, and heck, even John Mayer and I'm no Mayer fan. Although if I posted this on Facebook I'd have about 50 people off my list because all of them go gaga over Gary Clark Jr.

On another note, one band I would have loved to see on there was Aerosmith. Their cover of Come Together would have been killer. I've always loved that version and dare I say it's my favorite. Very rarely is that the case for me with covers.
I didn't know Gary Clark was outplaying Joe. I was paying more attention to Joe then him.
I really don't know who the heck this Gary Clark Jr is. You don't outplay a guitar genius who has been around longer than you, well respect and is well known. Who's trending on Twitter? I was reading more about a great job Joe did then him because who knows this guy.You should take lesson from Joe not the other way around. Who's the one of the greatest guitar players in the world. I don't think I will see him on that list.
He wasn't playing better than him, more like trying (but failing) to overshadow or be louder than Joe. He was playing over top of what Joe was doing and it wasn't cool, IMO. Maybe others didn't get that vibe but I felt it was not very cool.Quote:
