I have to admit my favorite part was Michael Moore trying to talk the Hobbits out of the war with Sauron and getting crushed by an Oliphant for his troubles (good sport). I understand that Alison Krauss borrowed diamond encrusted shoes worth $2 Million to wear to sing her two songs. You couldn't see them because her dress was so long. She doesn't half get decent backup singers either does she (Sting and Elvis Costello)? Interesting night so far. |
