A big shout out to Frampton and Lukather.

Roger that!!!!


I liked the chance to compare and contrast Mayer and Urban side by side.

Ufff! Are those two becoming an item. Second time around since Crossroads 2013. They should have put Mayer and Urban in the band and given Lukather and Frampton props.....into the spotlight.

I don't blame Cynthia and Julian for snubbing the event at all.

Julian's interview:
http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/julian-le ... e-beatles/


Here's part of the interview I read about it (and currently, Julian is in Africa with his White Feather foundation doing humanitarian work):

"A performer himself, it may surprise some that Lennon—who certainly has the musical chops to out-shine some of the acts involved in various Beatles 50th anniversary shows—isn’t celebrating the occasion with song.

“I just felt that [the show about the Beatles] was really appropriate for me because I decided not to really partake or be tied in with the whole musical aspect with the Beatles 50th…with the Grammys [tribute]... It was all a bit of a mess… about who was performing what, when, where,” he explained.

Since Lennon resides primarily in Europe, a big U.S.-based performance just wasn’t in the cards.

“Listen, I appreciate the Beatles as much as everybody else, but the last thing I wanted to do—because it didn’t look like there was going to be an opportunity to perform, really— was stand in the audience clapping along to other people singing Beatles songs,” Lennon said.

“For me, it would be like a Beatles karaoke night. I’d just feel like a bit of an idiot, and I’ve never been a major fan of awards shows. It’s just not my cup of tea.”
