We here at Music For Meditators have recieved the inside poop on some of the songs to be performed at tonight's gala benefit concert.
The concert will supposedly open with Paul Horn (flutist) performing songs from his last (and only) hit album, 1972's "Inside." Rumors have it that he wanted the promoters to rebuild the entire Taj Mahal onstage for him so that he could emulate the acoustic effects he got from playing inside it on the album, but that the TM cheapskates refused, so he's going to have to make do with echo loops. Next will come Paul McCartney, setting the tone of the evening with a rendition of his song, Spin It On. His and Ringo's full set list is still unclear, but we know that it will contain a medley of songs dedi- cated to the theme of aging gracefully, including: Crackin' Up, Medicine Jar, Don't Get Around Much Anymore and Live And Let Die. Next up will be Moby, singing his sattvic hits When It's Cold I'd Like To Die, That's When I Reach For My Revolver, and (appropriately) Great Escape. He will finish up with a touching "personal memoir medley" of One Minute Man and Sleep Alone. Eddie Vedder will perform a medley of Love Boat Captain and Dangers Of Love, which some say is his autobiographical retelling of the fateful night on a yacht with a dozen groupies that went so so wrong. Sheryl Crow promises a somewhat steamier set, with a set of tunes dedicated to sex and sexuality: If It Makes You Happy, Body Kiss, Mr. Goodbar, All I Wanna Do, and Love Is All There Is. Finally, the whole ensemble will gather onstage and sing The Fool On The Hill and Listen To What The Man Said. The encore will be a group performance of Sexy Sadie.
