Come Together: A Night for John Lennon's Words and Music

Come Together: A Night for John Lennon's Words and Music was a 2001 television program tribute to John Lennon aired on both TNT and The WB. The concert was named after Lennon's Beatles song, "Come Together".

Originally planned to celebrate Lennon's accomplishments, the concert took place on October 2, 2001, at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, shortly after 9/11 and exactly one week before the 61st anniversary of Lennon's birth.
