In just a few minutes, we will heading over to the Opening Ceremony Party. The stars will include Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Bono, Garth Brooks, Sheryl Crow, Renee Fleming, Josh Groban, Herbie Hancock, Heather Headley, John Legend, Jennifer Nettles, John Mellencamp, Usher Raymond IV, Shakira, Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, will.i.am, and Stevie Wonder.
We have VIP standing tickets, but still have to get there hours ahead of time - go through security and wait until 2:30 for the concert to begin. It will be worth it. Last ngiht they told us that Pete Seeger and James Taylor will do a duo. Here are the images from the prep:
