"Hello." "Welcome." "Thank you for coming." "Looking forward to an evening of beautiful music and warm feelings." "We're here to celebrate the life and music of George Harrison." "We've been rehearsing for three weeks and we might have got the music right but we haven't practised any talking, so I have no idea what to tell you other than we brought a few friends together," "mainly people that were involved in his life and his music and work, and we're going to be entertaining you tonight." "We've had a great deal of fun and enjoyment and a lot of our grieving has been dealt with by playing this music and it's been a very spiritual and soulful experience putting this together for you, so I hope it comes out as good as it sounded in rehearsal." "First of all, there will be an Indian section, the first half will be music that was composed especially for this by Ravi Shankar." "His daughter, Anoushka, is going to play." "Then there will be a little intermission and then we'll be playing George's songs." "We'll be having some guests - I'll let you spot them and I'll introduce them as they come on." "And that's it." "This is a blessed occasion for me because I can share my love of George with you." "And I think most important of all is that his wife Olivia and his son Dhani can experience and witness how much we loved him, through his music tonight." "Thank you for coming again." "At this point I'd like to introduce one of my great heroes, the maestro, Ravi Shankar." "Thank you, Eric." "Dear friends," "I strongly feel that George is here tonight." "I mean, how can he not be here when all of us who loved him so much, who love him so much have assembled all together" "to sing for him, to play music for him?" "I'm sure he's here." "Thank you." "George was like a son to me and I'm so glad that I have my grandson Dhani also" "here this evening." "The composition that I specially made for this occasion is known as Arpan." "Arpan means to give or to offer." "So this is an offering, along with all the musicians who are here" "and we start naturally with this special item, played by my daughter Anoushka and after that another short item with Jeff Lynne and then the finale of the first part, Arpan." "Thank you." " You've done your bit." " I'll be in the box watching you." "Fantastic!" "Wonderful." "Get the house band loaded up, please." "Thank you." "Ladies and gentlemen, it's Monty Python." "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a very special night." "A night so overwhelmingly special that in its epic and superhuman specialness it surely transcends all previous" "specialnesses." "All of us gathered here in this great hall of Albert - named, strangely enough, after Albert Modley, a northern comedian," "previously unknown south of Rotherham - all of us here surely feel tonight wretchedly inadequate" "in the littleness of our celebration of the bigness of someone so hugely big in all our little lives, that his bigness and our littleness are like opposite poles..." "I didn't want to do this!" "I don't want to go on all night giving tributes." "I wanted to be... a lumberjack!" "Leaping from tree to tree, as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia," "the giant redwood, the larch, the mighty Scots pine." "The smell of fresh-cut timber, the crash of mighty trees with my best girl by my side, we'd sing, sing, sing." "Everyone ready?" "Jeff Lynne." "Thank you." " Gary Brooker." " Thank you." " Thank you." " Jeff Lynne." "Thank you." "Please welcome Joe Brown." "How are we doing, lads?" "Thank you very much." "Thank you very much." "Thank you." "Cheers." "Please welcome Jools Holland, Sam Brown and Jim Capaldi." "Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers." "Hello." "All right." "All right." "All right?" "One, two, one, two, three, four." "One, two, one, two, three, four." "Just gonna add Jeff Lynne and Dhani and do a Traveling Wilburys number." "Billy Preston." "Billy Preston!" "Please welcome Ringo Starr." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "I just want to know why they're all taller than me." "Anyway, what a band, what a night." "You know, I loved George, George loved me and I'd like to do two numbers for you." "One George and I wrote together, it's called Photograph and the meaning's changed now, of course." "And he loved Carl Perkins, so I'm gonna do Honey Don't." "Anyway, let's start with Photograph." "They're throwing Jelly Babies at you!" "Thanks for the Jelly Babies." " Ready?" " I'm ready." "Let's do it." "Andy Fairweather Low." "Gary Brooker!" "Thank you, thank you, thank you." "I love you." "It gives me great pleasure to introduce another friend of George's." "Paul McCartney." "Thank you." "Thank you." " Ready?" " Yeah, man." "I'm ready." "Oh, yeah." "What a night." "Thank you all for coming." "Thank you, Olivia and Dhani for inviting us all." "Sometimes if you'd go to George's house, after you'd had dinner the ukuleles would come out." "One time, not so long ago, we were playing." "I said, "There's a song I do on the ukulele," and I played it." "I'll play it for you now." "It's a tribute to our beautiful friend." "Thank you." "Hello." "I just wanted to say, you know, from the bottom of my heart, thank you to all the musicians." "You guys, you're my dad's dearest friends, I love you guys so much." "He loves you and it's the most beautiful thing we could be doing." "Thank you very much." "Eric, you're the man." "God bless you all." "God bless you all." "Have a nice night." "Joe Brown." " Joe, a quick word." " Oh, I'm sorry, Paul." "Olivia said that with Dhani up on stage, it looks like George stayed young and we all got old." "Thank you."
