Anyone here watched it? The BB's perform at roughly the hour mark with a full orchestra backing them.

Rather enjoyed that. Particularly pleased that excessive liberties weren't taken in arranging the parts played by The Boston Pops Orchestra. I've heard music that would lend itself well to such a setting mutilated by the addition of parts that don't serve the songs and/or have no bearing on the original incarnation of the material... most of "S&M" by Metallica leaps to mind.
