Marty even played a song from his current album at the time that was produced by Mike Campbell. Granted, it was a year and a day after Tom died. But, definitely a bigger tribute than anything Fleetwood Mac did.
When I saw ELO, with Dhani Harrison opening, Dhani joined them for “Handle With Care,” complete with a Wilbury’s video tribute during the second verse. The crowd went nuts in Columbus when George, Roy, and Tom were on the screen.

I guess my point is that it was pretty commonplace and not exclusive to Stevie. |
There's a big difference between a year and a day and FIVE YEARS.
Stevie's revisionist 360 on her relationship with Prince is pretty over the top.
