Today's Los Angeles Times had a whole bunch of contemporaneous reviews. They weren't terribly flattering. --Bob

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed that special. I was expecting to cringe at a few of the renditions, but that only happened with Katy Perry's butchering (should I say "Butcher Cover", Beatle fanatics?) of "Yesterday". A very nice tribute, indeed.

Today we listened to the Liverpool Lads all day at the office (seems pretty much everyone watched it last night). Most enjoyable working Monday in recent memory for me.
