Tribute Concert Honors Robbie Robertson in Los Angeles

The Life Is a Carnival tribute concert for Robbie Robertson, held at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, featured an all-star lineup including Eric Clapton, Van Morrison, and Mavis Staples, celebrating the legacy of the late Band guitarist. Organized by Martin Scorsese and others, the event was filmed for a future concert movie, echoing Scorsese's iconic 1978 film, The Last Waltz. Performers delivered memorable renditions of Robertson's songs, with Clapton leading a mini-set that included 'The Shape I'm In' and 'Chest Fever'. Additional highlights featured collaborations among artists like Margo Price and Bruce Hornsby, as well as solo performances by Bob Weir and Eric Church. The concert marked a poignant celebration of Robertson's contributions to music, following his passing in August 2023. The show is set to tour as 'Life Is a Carnival: Last Waltz Tour '24' shortly after the concert.
