If anyone's got the station MTVLive, I caught the entire George Fest concert last night. Al's got one full song, a short interview clip, and a verse in one of the group songs. It looks like it's playing a few more times at least. It's also available on demand.

It's weird seeing Al singing the right words to a song! :wacko:

Happened to tune into VH1 Classic just as Al's performance was on. I was impressed. Great stuff :Y
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

I just got the George Fest CD and DVD as a birthday present today and I have to say, it's really impressive. The video is just beautiful and the sound is great! I'm going to be listening to Al's version of What Is Life all the time!

I got my copy of The George Fest about 2 weeks ago and am also so impressed.
After Al's performance the drummer is so moved that he stands up and shoots his arms up high in the air with excitement.
Al is so amazing that he knows the exact right amount of silly, not an easily acquired balance.
"Not too stupid, just stupid enough."
I also love the part where Dhani hugs him. So sweet.
I encourage everyone to buy this wonderful concert DVD.All of the performances are wonderful.(but of course, Al's is the best.) :accordion:

So this new 2016 CD is actually a performance from 2014, right? Or did Al perform again at a George Harrison tribute show?
