Dozens of famous musicians gathered this weekend to honor the legacy of George Harrison at an event aptly named George Fest: A Night to Celebrate the Music of George Harrison. The event, which featured performances by the likes of Brian Wilson, Norah Jones and more, was one of many tributes to the Beatle, whose first six solo albums were recently compiled in a new box set, The Apple Years 1968-75. The highlight was former Beach Boys Wilson and Al Jardine taking on "My Sweet Lord" with help from Heart's Ann Wilson and Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne.

George Fest, which also featured performances by "Weird Al" Yankovic, Harrison's son Dhani, and members of the Killers, Spoon, Velvet Revolver and more, took place on September 28th at Los Angeles' Fonda Theatre. The show doubled as a benefit for the Jameson Neighborhood Fund, which raises money for local charities. One hundred percent of ticket sales for George Fest went to Sweet Relief, a charity that aids career musicians who are struggling to make ends meet.

In addition to the performances below, Spoon's Britt Daniel and Alex Fischel teamed up with Flaming Lips' Steven Drozd for Let It Be's "I Me Mine," Ben Harper took on "Give Me Love (Peace on Earth)" from Living in the Material World and Heart's Ann Wilson recruited Velvet Revolver drummer Matt Sorum for the All Things Must Pass track "Beware of Darkness."

Leading up to the event, Conan O'Brien – who made an unannounced appearance at George Fest – showcased many of the performers on his talk show for what he had dubbed George Harrison week. On various nights, Norah Jones sang "Behind That Locked Door," from All Things Must Pass, Dhani performed "Let It Down" and "Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let It Roll)," from the same record, Paul Simon covered "Here Comes the Sun" and Beck had fun with "Wah Wah," also from All Things Must Pass.

The box set, which Dhani oversaw, also came out last week. In addition to the six Harrison albums that Apple Records released, it included a number of previously unheard recordings. A notable one was "This Guitar (Can't Keep From Crying)," which features guest appearances by Eurythmics' Dave Stewart, Dhani, Kara DioGuardi and, on drums, Ringo Starr.



Similarly, George Fest attracted some star-studded performances. Here are some highlights:

"Weird Al" Yankovic, "What Is Life"



Norah Jones and Karen Elson, "I'd Have You Anytime"



Conan O'Brien, "Old Brown Shoe"



Brandon Flowers, "Got My Mind Set on You"


Perry Farrell, Dhani Harrison, Karen Elson, Norah Jones, Wayne Coyne, "Here Comes the Sun"


Dhani Harrison, "Savoy Truffle" and "Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp"


Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, "Art of Dying"

PAUL McCARTNEY IN SAN DIEGO : Petco Park , September 28 2014

Paul McCartney to rock San Diego at Petco Park
First public concert here in 38 years

SAN DIEGO - Former Beatle Paul McCartney is still going strong, and will bring his concert tour to Petco Park Sunday night for his first public appearance in San Diego in 38 years.

Sir Paul -- who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth -- last played here in 1976 at what was then known as the San Diego Sports Arena. He played a private show in Rancho Santa Fe in 2003.

McCartney and his band have been playing Beatles staples during their tour, with shows lasting close to three hours.

Even though the gates to the park did not open until 6 p.m., thousands of fans arrived early to tailgate, buy souvenirs or snap a photo under the giant banner of McCartney now hanging from the ballpark.

The music legend brings different memories for so many. Patti and Erin Engelhorn have found a way to bond over the Beatles. Patti Engel horn was at the Fab Four's final concert. She was 13 at the time.

"My ticket was so expensive. I actually had to go to the bank and take out money. It was $6 and 50 cents," said Engelhorn.

Her daughter Erin just started learning about the Beatles in college.

"We found that we had this bond of loving them and got to go see Paul together," she said.

Their passion for McCartney recently took them to England.

"I'm afraid for Paul to hear this. I went to four or five of his homes," laughed Patti Engelhorn.

Debbie Russell made a sign to let the rock icon know she has been counting the days for his return to San Diego.

"13,983 days ago, Paul McCartney was last in San Diego," said Russell.

Roughly 42,000 people are expected to see the concert. Pat and John Doran are here from Chicago. They have seats in the front row.

"Obviously, growing up with him 10 years old, listening to him in the backyard on my transistor radio … it's just amazing to come see him in person," said John Doran.

10News ran into one woman who is such a dedicated fan that she says she changed her first name to McCartney. She told the artist when she saw him in concert years ago.

"Paul said, 'You changed it huh?' And he said, 'Excellent, just like Elton,'" said "McCartney" Giannoni.
