George Harrison, no stranger to performing on stage, was no doubt somewhat nervous as frontman for the Concert for Bangladesh. Here he is, tentatively smiling as the audience recognizes and cheers for him and Here Comes the Sun. August 1, 1971 Take us there, George 💕

For us, blunders are private. For celebrities, they're photographed for all to see. From Jennifer Lawrence's tumble to Justin Bieber's bad hair day, these photos show even A-listers have off days 👇

He hadn’t played in front of a crowd since 1966 at that point, to be fair

Repost The Beatles George Harrison plays “Here Comes The Sun” to a sold out audience at The Concert For Bangladesh, Madison Square Garden on August 1st 1971, accompanied by Pete Ham of Badfinger. Alerted to the scale of the suffering by his friend Ravi Shankar, George Harrison organised The Concert For Bangladesh, with proceeds going to UNICEF USA. Two sold out concerts at New York’s Madison Square Garden brought together an extraordinary assemblage of major artists collaborating for a common humanitarian goal – setting the precedent that music could be used to serve a higher cause. The all-star line-up of fellow artists included Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, #RingoStarr, Leon Russell, Billy Preston and, of course, Ravi Shankar. “The musicians were great. I mean they completely put down their own egos to play together and to do something because the whole vibe of that concert was that it was something bigger than the lot of us.” – George Harrison You can stream the Concert For Bangladesh music here: #ForEveryChild

In 1976 GEORGE HARRISON and PAUL SIMON appeared on ‘Saturday Night Live’ and performed “Here Comes The Sun” and “Homeward Bound”. There used to exist something called ‘appointment television’ - this is a great example.

''For the love of God, this should be a yearly celebration, the day music was perfect.'' It was 1976 when George Harrison of The Beatles and Paul Simon took the stage together at Saturday Night Live. The song was a timeless one, the classic, Here Comes The Sun, performed by legends. Such an awesome performance and a meeting for a great piece.

Carl Perkins with George Harrison - The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise A charming solo moment for Carl in the midst of an all-star jam session, as George looks on, chipping in where needed, happy to let an idol take centre stage. Lovely stuff. 1985.

After America was attacked by terror attacks George Bush needed to provide some relief for the US. And as silly as it sounds, it was important for George Bush to throw a strike in this moment and he nailed it.

I’ll never forgive George and Izzie for what they did to Callie. Izzie was wrong, no doubt, but I blame George more because he was the one who owed Callie loyalty.

Chavez was in the US to address the UN, where he went on stage and called the genocidal neo-con Zionist George Bush the devil and mocked him, as the entire general assembly laughed along: "The devil came to speak here yesterday, and it still smells of sulfur today."
