It's great idea becuase it's your idea!
From their official website |
It's like a repeat!
Do any of you guys own 'A Concert for George'? How awesome is it? I want to get it sometime. |
[QUOTE=Jacaranda]Ya this kid I know has a Pep's shirt, I don't really like it just because its just the Album cover and I like shirts that are more distinct. I'd love to have a George Harrison shirt. A cool one, not an album cover.[/QUOTE]
I have one too, it has the cover on the front, then the track list on the back, and it's red and for blue3, it's pretty good, you outta get a money's worth out of it. |

Both the DVD and the album. Personally, I love both. [QUOTE]I can't seem to find a link. Has it been posted yet? sorry I'm new to livejournal[/QUOTE] My fault. I've been studying all day for finals, and I've been busy. It's uploading now, expect it in about an hour. |
I have the Concert for George cd. It's great, a very moving tribute. I really want the DVD. Especially to see Eric Clapton play While My Guitar Gently Weeps. That solo is amazing and it must have been incredible for Eric to play it without George for the first time.
Concert for Bangladesh is amazing too. |
Okay thanks Blue sky.
I've thought about getting the concert for george too. I heard it was really good. But I've never heard of Concert for Bangladesh is it any good? |
Britton: I just updated it, it's on now.
|
Speaking of Concerts for George did any one catch when he was inducted to the hall of fame awhile back and a bunch of guys play While My Guitar Gently Weeps, I can't remember who all did it but I remember Prince played one hell of a solo. It really impressed me.
|
Never seen any concerts for George. I've seen a couple Wings shows, but never George. Does he play his solo stuff and just his Beatle songs or other Beatles as well.

The Concert for George is a concert documentary that has Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne, and various other musicians performing Harrison's songs in honor of the 1 year anniversay of his death. |
[QUOTE=Magical_Mystery_Tour]Never seen any concerts for George. I've seen a couple Wings shows, but never George. Does he play his solo stuff and just his Beatle songs or other Beatles as well.[/QUOTE]
No, The Concert for George was a tribute to him a year after he died. |
The Concert For Bangladesh is pretty good, although the song Bangladesh is not so good lol. I got it because it had Bob Dylan, George Harrison, and Ringo all in one. Does it annoy anyone else that they have two drummers? I find it extremley unnecesarry the only time it looks cool is when they do fills in perfect unison.
I like how in the documentary George Harrison said he just saw a figure and he knew it was Bob so he just said...let me introduce Bob Dylan. Bob was looking really good, and his singing was sounding extremley good. It seemed like the others didn't know what he was going to play, cause he seemed to be playing alone with George and the other guy trying to guess right. |

Hey thanks so much man. |

And when George asked him if he would play older hits like The Times They are a-Changin', Dylan retorted "Are you going to play I Want to Hold Your Hand?"' One of my favorite Dylan quotes. But Dylan put on a great performance. I prefer Bangladesh to Concert for George but both are great. And Jac, I saw the performance you were talking about. It's on George's official site. It's awesome. Prince's playing was great. |
Concert for Bangladesh > Concert for George.
Prince is a surprisingly talented guitarist. I should check out that video. |

I'm listening to Got To Get You Into My Life right now, this is such an amazing song. I've been listening to Revolver...this has definitely been my favourite Beatles album for a while now. |
I just went to [url]http://www.georgeharrison.com[/url] and watched those Hall of Fame induction videos. I'm happy now. Dhani looks exactly like George except darker hair. And Tom Petty is awesome and sings like Bob Dylan.
Okay guys, my brother is one of those idiots who thinks the Beatles are nothing more than a pop band. CD burning time. Anyone want to come up with some suggestions? Some songs I am considering putting on: Come Together Hey Jude You've Got to Hide Your Love Away Let it Be She Said She Said In My Life A Day in the Life While My Guitar Gently Weeps Helter Skelter Something Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) Tomorrow Never Knows Dear Prudence Happiness is a Warm Gun But I'll probably axe some of those and put some others in. |
Robo: Don't put on the cliche songs like Come Together and Hey Jude (That are nothing more then pop songs :S), mix it up throw on Flying, Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite, Mean Mister Mustard, Polywhatever Pam, Baby Your a Rich Man... etc.
|
I'd say put on Golden Slumbers and You Never Give Me your Money too. Other than that, it looks like you've got all the songs I'd include.
|
I'd add some stuff from Sargent Peppers, namely Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or the title track.
|
How about stuff like Within You Without You or Tomorrow Never Knows? That should help show off their versatility.
Edit: Nevermind. You have Tomorrow Never Knows on the list. My mistake. |
I would add Elanor Rigby, Taxman, Nowhere Man, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, and Here Comes The Sun. Other than that it looks efficient.
Edit: Maybe Strawberry Fields too. |
[QUOTE=MidnightRider]I would add Elanor Rigby, Taxman, Nowhere Man, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, and Here Comes The Sun. Other than that it looks efficient.
Edit: Maybe Strawberry Fields too.[/QUOTE] I don't like Elenor Rigby. Don't know why, but it is one of the few Beatle songs that never appealed to me. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and Here Comes the Sun were originally on the list but I'm not sure if I have room for them. Same thing Taxman and Nowhere Man. And adding some more obscure songs sounds like a good idea. I just completely forgot about Strawberry Fields. That's definitely one of my top 5 Beatles songs. That definitely needs to go on the mix. Don't know how I forgot that. |
I Am The Walrus would be a good one because it's one of their more popular songs...but it ain't exactly a "pop song."
|
Hmm talk about George while I'm gone plz :(
I own both of the "Concert for" dvd's, they're both very good. |
sounds good, robo, I like the choices, go for it, man:thumb:
