It would be wrong to say the whole show was an ode to Richie - but it was damn close. Jon dedicated the final song to Richie - wherever he was that night. I think plenty more videos are on youtube, you should watch them if you have time (or interest). It was a hell of a show with a lot of insight.
At the end was a Q & A which was also awesome. I authored a complete DVD from that show many years ago, with the help of many people who shared their video. It was shared on Seb's old forum. I don't know if it's out there somewhere.

Very late replying to this - But thanks for mentioning the Lincoln Centre evening... I had no idea the videos existed and I've watched the few that I could find. So interesting. And I know what you mean about it almost being an ode to Richie.... Is the full evening on You Tube anywhere?
