motown comes to the white house for black history month



it's black history month, and president obama has invited special guests to perform some motown hits to celebrate.  not only will they be celebrating black history month, they will also be honoring motown's fifty year legacy.  

the artist i am looking forward to hearing the most is smokey robinson and i am also pretty excited to see what sheryl crow and jamie foxx have to offer.  there are several other well-known artists and performers paying tribute to motown, a few i am not so pumped to hear, buuut i am trying to keep an open mind and hope they prove me wrong. all together, i am pretty stoked to watch this concert.  i hope you will be able to watch it as well.

the event will take place on february twenty-fourth and pbs will broadcast the show nationwide on march first.
