Spoiler: You get a once-in-a-lifetime Grammy salute that’s hotter than a Leo at karaoke night. The Recording Academy and CBS are pulling out more stops than a diva on the zodiac cusp, gathering legends like Stevie Wonder, the Jonas Brothers, Jon Batiste, and Janelle Monáe, all to honor the nine-time Grammy-winning, disco-defying icons Earth, Wind & Fire, live at the Hollywood Bowl. I can already feel the celestial vibes tingling!
