Have to admit there might have been some dust in the air when I got to "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." For those who don't know: This was a memorial concert for George Harrison, put on several years ago. The video is being streamed for free today, to celebrate his birthday: <a href="http://www.concertforgeorge.com/" target="_blank">http://www.concertforgeorge.com/</a>
