Now Chris Rock is cracking me up with his intro for the Red Hot Chili Peppers!



Their version of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground" transcends the epitome of Rock fusion.

I'm still pissed that some of the greatest bands ever are not in the the Overly Commercialized Pop Music Hall of Fame.

But I did want to see what they did for the Beastie Boys.

and I enjoyed their homage and found it respectful. The message in music has been compromised for a long time now, but there are many heart strings.

Great music, great memories! Myles Kennedy, who sang with Guns N' Roses, was absolutely fantastic. I had to look him up on wiki... but now I am a fan!

(I wish Rod Stewart would have been there with Faces, but Mike Hucknall was great.)
