I just turned it on. How can it be anything but great?

Saw it a few nights ago. Fantastic show. The only performance I didn't like was the rendition of Allentown.

I just watched it and I also didn't like the rendition of Allentown. I like watching with sub-titles and especially enjoy reading his poetry put to music. I was surprised when someone said he has been entertaining for 50 years. I also felt pretty old hearing that too.

Thank you so much for the link. I just finished watching it. You just don't appreciate the number of songs he wrote and sang until you view this award ceremony!
