Yes, it was the same one.  I watched most of it.  I was very impressed.  I
thought it was interesting that they did not identify on the screen any of
the artists.  In several cases, I had no idea who the person was.  And most
of the performances were excellent.  (Especially Bruce Springsteen ;-) )
BTW, it was Celene Dion singing "God Bless America"... why would a Canadian
do that?
