9. A perfect coming together of a lifetime of Paul McCartney's Music

receiving the Gershwin Award from President Obama whom Paul admires as much as so many Americans.

As Paul said when he had it in his hands.."Getting this prize would be enough but from this President!" As well as his famous line.."Billions out here are rootin' for you".

I loved all the renditions of the Beatles and Paul's songs.. Black Bird done by Corrine Bailey Rae & Herbie Hancock was simply beautiful.

David Grohl did an awesome interpretation of Band On The Run & Elvis Costello's Pennylane(where he said he grew up)..put some heart and soul into that, he did!
