The Beatles Get Grammys Special on CBS

I'm wondering if The Grammy's are going to coincide with Downton Abbey. If it does, deciding which to watch will be no contest
Luckily, those of use with DVRs don't have to worry! I'll be watching the Grammys and recording 2 other programs at the same time! P.S. Downton Abbey repeats later that night and during the week.
We always record "60 Minutes" and "Downton Abbey," and the Grammys are on the same channel as "60 Minutes," so that shouldn't be a problem. I do see that there's golf on CBS before all that, so I hope that doesn't screw up the timing of everything!

Oh right. I think Downton Abbey is on again on Monday nights. That will work out great!

I always add time (extension) to the recordings of live shows anyway.

For those of you going on Monday night, be sure to tell us all about it. Thanks.

Oh God, Alicia Keys will be there and probably call John Lennon John Legend again!

Here's Julian's first time at the Grammy's performing. Gosh, he sounds so much like his dad. http://somethingelsereviews.com/2014/01/26/it-was-very-nerve-wracking-julian-lennon-remembers-his-introduction-to-the-grammys/

A few days ago I sent messages on twitter to Paul's band members (and mentioned that idea on this forum as well) saying that it would be a great idea to play "Sgt.Pepper" straight into "With A Little Help From My Friends", at which point Ringo would join them onstage. Well, apparently last night they did just that! I'm not saying it was because of me, but it's still a nice thought. Yes, there is a partial setlist on this link: http://www.examiner.com/article/stars-come-out-to-honor-the-beatles-at-the-night-that-changed-america Ringo Starr: ?Matchbox?, ?Boys?, ?Yellow Submarine? Paul McCartney: ?Magical Mystery Tour?, ?Birthday?, ?Get Back?, ?I Saw Her Standing There?, ?Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band? (which segued into) ?With A Little Help From My Friends? (with Ringo), ?Hey Jude? (finale w/all)

^That's a definite song for Ringo...they did it at the David Lynch thing. Here's an article & great pics from last night. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2547201/Paul-McCartney-Ringo-Starr-joined-Alicia-Keys-John-Mayer-Stevie-Wonder-star-studded-Beatles-tribute-concert.html

I too said they should play Sgt. Pepper & With A Little Help! So glad they did! Why did you say "partial" list though in this article? http://www.examiner.com/article/stars-come-out-to-honor-the-beatles-at-the-night-that-changed-america?CID=examiner_alerts_article

Dhani cut his hair and looked great! Can't wait to see this show!

Because the article says: "Here's a partial setlist and performers provided by Connie Lindell and Keith Putney".

Oh! I missed that. Looked fairly complete to me.

Abe just told me on twitter that it was a great suggestion asking them to play Sgt.Pepper / With A Little Help. Maybe he was just being nice, but I'll pretend to myself that I helped Paul and Ringo choose their setlist. It's a nice illusion!

http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/5885541/paul-mccartney-ringo-starr-beatles-ed-sullivan-theater-anniversary This article mentions that David Letterman will be interviewing Paul and Ringo for the broadcast of this show, so it seems the interview won't be on Dave's show the week before. Open to interpretation!

On the Grammy tribute to the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show, who was Yoko Ono dancing with during "Boys" performed by Ringo? I thought she look like Barbara Bach with short dark hair cut, but Mrs Starkey was there with her gold blonde hair.
