Perhaps Dhani Harrison should play the licks, riffs and solos his dad was famous for...?

Would that make it 2 1/2, kind of, say, 62.5%?

What about Julian Lennon coming on for "Hey Jude"? Then it's up to 75%, genetically speaking.

I'd love to hear Julian, Paul, Dhani and Ringo play a number.

A fabulous night for sure! All artists were on top of their game last night. Eddy Vetter was clearly a highlight for me.
Cheryl Crow thanked GH and played My Sweet Lord.
Jerry Seinfeld can out and did about 5 min of stand up. He had the place rolling, unbelievably funny. Even Howard Stern canme out and talked abt how TM saved his mother’s life…
Then on to why we were there…
Ringo came out and opened with It Don’t Come Easy. Then went behind the drums for Boys and then came back out front to do Yellow Submarine - he was joined by most that had already played.
Then there was McCartney. I have to say I’ve seen McCartney so many times now (I've lost count) beginning in 1976 including the tapping of Up Close in 1990 at the Ed Sullivan Theater but last night his voice was unbelievably strong – maybe the best I’ve heard him.
The set from what I can recall right now. I have the entire Macca show on my Line6 Back Track so I’ll check this out latter and maybe post some sound bites.
Drive My Car
Jet
Got to get you into my life
Let it be
Lady Madonna
Blackbird
Here today (nice surprise)
Band on the run
Can’t buy me love
With a little help from my friends (he introduced WALHFMF by introducing Ringo as Billy Shears and then broke into song)
Encores with Ringo on drums
Cosmically conscious
I saw her standing there
There were more songs, I'm sure.
Clearly history was made last night, it definitely looked like they themselves appreciated what was taking place. An overall unbelievable night!!! I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity…
Some pics and sound bite to follow
If anyone else was there please join in.

Remember when the fuddy-duddys said those moptops wouldn't last a year? Seems a lifetime ago now ...
Glad to hear the lads are still at it and sounding great. I feel a little of the old excitement stirring in my heart when I read your report.
