    I think everyone did a great job. But PEARL JAM......well, theres no denying they were the SH*T!!! :cool:
    PJ is definitely the sh#t!! BUt I feel the other bands could have practiced a little more.

    Ed voice was so dead on. HIs high notes were off the hook. I always thought as you get older your voice gets worse but man eddies seems to be getting better! Now they need to get back in studio and give us some more tunes...

    Having seen The Who many times I wouldn't go THAT far. ;) But Pete was having sound problems from the start which was pretty obvious after they had to restart YBYB. He posted a note to the fans on thewho.com that he broke a nail on Baba and as a result he had a little bit of trouble getting "back in the saddle" as he put it. But I thought his playing was great.

    No, Roger's voice ain't what it was and he can't hit a lot of those high notes he used to reach but I thought he sounded good. He struggled a lot during the 2007 tour and he's sounding a lot better these days.

    Not to take away from PJ by any means who blew me and everybody else away. They should have done 4 songs.

    Nah, not really. Great band, but not in the same league in terms of popularity and icon status.

    It looked like RD was going to die right on stage. I guess I'll have to see the rest on VH1 tonight. Maybe it was that song....??? At least they gave it one last horah.

    Thanks! I was hoping that was the case...

    my buddy who always gives me shit for liking Pearl Jam "because they are popular" is goin to watch this tonight with me... he hasn't ever seen PJ live so I was hoping this would shut him up for a bit.

    This may have ben brought up...what band today could do a beter job of hammering out great WHO tunes? No one could touch PJ. They've been doing an awesome job of it for 16 years?
