4. Paul grabs an acoustic and does Her Majesty, and plays the missing last chord to symbolize the finalty of it all!
I would watch that a few times!

Not if it contradicts Emerick.

There will be a 'Beatles 50th Anniversary' concert in L.A. at the end of this month to coincide with the Grammys. Apart from Paul and Ringo, no word on who else will be playing in the band. Fab!

Great! I always thought a Beatles(-2) reunion could look something like this:
Paul's band with Ringo sitting in. The setlist should be:
1. Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Paul)>A Little Help From My Friends (Ringo)> Sgt Pepper Reprise (Paul)
2. Act Naturally (Ringo w/ Paul harmony)
3. Medley: Bathroom Window/Golden Slumbers (Paul)/Carry That Weigh (Paul & Ringo singing chorus)/You Never Give Me Your Money (Paul)/ The End (Paul & co. trading the guitar licks, Ringo reprises his drum solo with Abe helping out!)
4. Paul grabs an acoustic and does Her Majesty, and plays the missing last chord to symbolize the finalty of it all!
I would watch that a few times!

is that Joe Walsh onstage with Ringo there? That guy's all over the place, I saw him in the Macca "Kisses from the Bottom" documentary as well.

The televised show will take place on January 27 – one day after this year's Grammys and exactly 50 years after The Beatles played on The Ed Sullivan Show in the US. Starr said: "To celebrate the 50 years since we landed in New York in February [1964], they are putting on a big show on Monday and we will be doing it there."
This is akin to a butler writing a book.. Not really cool....Quote

Here's an interview with Geoff Emerick where he discusses his book. He answers to the criticism against George and backs it up, but also gives George his due.
I think his account as Beatles engineer is a valued part of history, particularly when discussing Ringo's efforts with the following image that really puts you there in the room with them: "When he [Ringo] used to leave in the evening, there was wood chips all over the carpet where he'd been through so many drum sticks..."

That interview is a very different tone than what he takes in the book.

Just seen on BBC news about Macca and Ringo appearing at the Grammys tonight and getting an award.
Also mentioned the Stones also in the running for an award.
