As far as live performances, George Harrison appeared on an episode of The Dick Cavett Show in 1971, in a band called Wonder Wheel. The band performed "Two Faced Man" which was written by Gary Wright. Harrison appeared as a favor to Wright, who had played piano on Harrison's album, All Things Must Pass.

Speaking of concerts, however, I think you may be referring to his benefit concert, The Concert For Banga Desh. George held the concert to raise money and awareness of the starving refugees in Bangla Desh, the home country of his close friend Ravi Shankar.

An old family servant asked him how he felt. He answered, 'I am very ill.'

To Dr. Craik he observed, 'I am dying, sir - but am not afraid to die.'

To Mrs. Washington he said, 'Go to my desk, and in the private drawer you will find two papers - bring them to me. These are my Wills - preserve this one and burn the other.'

Calling to Colonel Lear, he directed - 'Let my corpse be kept for the usual period of three days.'

He asked "What is the time?", and was answered a few minutes to ten. Then he died.

Those were his final words.

Last words were spoken to Col. Tobias Lear, his aide:

"I am just going. Have me decently buried and do not let my body be put into a vault in less than two days after I am dead. Do you understand me?

"Yes,sir." replied Lear.

" 'Tis well", said Washington. Then he died.
