Strap in for the next year of palaber.

Other lowlights from yesterday....
Garth Brooks to sing Shout?
Not correctly miking Pete Seeger

Watching this made me think where were more of folks like:

Smokey Robinson
Al Green
Solomon Burke
Aretha

Usher?
Will I Am?
Spare me.

The bit with the eagle was awkward.

Highlights:

Mellencamp was great, as was The Boss
Stevie Wonder should have been let to sing on his own,
as well sing Happy Birthday dedicated to MLK
The duet of Bettye Levette & Bon Jovi was ok
Beyonce was tolerable, however, Aretha in that role would have been aces.
You do miss how Ray Charles could have been part of this...

The Queen of Soul will perform tomorrow at the Inauguration. And I was thinking the same thing about the Genius.

Dublin radio airs new U2 single
By SHAWN POGATCHNIK – 2 hours ago

DUBLIN, Ireland (AP) — U2 fans, get your boots on. The first song from the band's first album in five years is ready for you to hear.

U2 began broadcasting the up-tempo single "Get On Your Boots" Monday — first on RTE, Ireland's state broadcasters, then for free on the group's Web site.

For decades, U2 has given Irish broadcaster Dave Fanning first dibs to broadcast its singles. Fanning — a friend of Bono since U2's Dublin rise in the late 1970s — led his morning RTE 2FM show with the song, which he praised as "a big song with lots of layers, but not overproduced."

Giving an advance taste on the Internet to the rest of the world is new. The "Get On Your Boots" single goes on sale Feb. 13 in Ireland and shortly thereafter worldwide.

U2's official Web site also lists all 11 title tracks for the new album, "No Line on the Horizon," which will be released Feb. 27 in Ireland, March 2 in many other countries, and March 3 in the United States.

"No Line on the Horizon" was recorded over a two-year period in New York, London, Dublin and Morocco — and is widely forecast to become the biggest-selling album of 2009. It is the band's 12th studio album and the first since 2004's Grammy-winning "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb."

The U2 Web site said Monday that "No Line on the Horizon" will be sold in an unprecedented five formats: a standard CD case with 24-page booklet; a "digipak" edition with a fold-out poster and rights to download a U2 film; a 64-page magazine version; a box edition that includes a DVD and hardback book; and a limited-issue vinyl LP.

New U2 song- right before Pebo (President elect Barack Obama} is in! Classic Bono.

do you suppose we could get PDog to come back, just to put up his counter for old time sake?
