According to news reports, the tribute concert for George Harrison was a major success. The concert organized by Eric Clapton (long time friend), Olivia Harrison (wife), and Dhani Harrison (son), was all about celebrating George's life and music. Playing to a sold out crowd of 5000 at the Royal Albert Hall, George's Beatle bandmates, Ringo and Paul McCartney, headlined the concert. Jeff Lynn and Tom Petty were there to represent The Traveling Wilbury's without Dylan (who had been rumored to be appearing.) The line up was all star and all friends who performed a large selection of George Harrison compositions.
