Tell Me :
Talk
Just relaying what I've been told. Hope for the sake of everyone on here thats going that it takes place.
I think its a pretty safe bet that if two of the biggest musical superstars on the planet are going to duet at a star-studded and very expensively priced event, then the choice of song(s) will be something that more than about 0.1% of the audience will have heard before.
No, but apparently an HBO broadcast of the 'best of' the shows will be shown in late November.
Great to hear...I hope it happens. Have you heard anything else about this? I'd love for Keith to show up too!
and my guess is Gimme Shelter....
With Eric Clapton not being able to perform, Jeff Beck is the perfect stand in. A former Yardbird with razor sharp skills to this very day. One of the few performers that seems to still be expanding his technical skills. Beck could easily slip on his blues shoes for the night and put on one helluva show. It will certainly be one of the highlights. George Clinton and Parliament/Funkadelic will be another personal highlight for me.
One never knows about the Rolling Stones. It may be a hush, hush thing until they walk out on stage. That would leave everyone quite stunned now wouldn't it?
CBII
I don't think so. Although it would be a sight to see.
Who picked Billy Gibbons to sit in with Jeff Beck? I guess it will be ok as long as there's no challenge / response. Billy's in for a real spanking if that happens.
CBII
As I mentioned earlier, Mick is definitely performing.Its now official (although with Clapton's withdrawal, this poster is a bit out of date)

Nope. The BROADCAST is November 29th. This is an HBO commercial.
There are two shows, Oct 29&30. The artists listed appear over the two nights.

That was the first ceremony, although the foundation started in 1983.
Maybe they're just being a bit belated with the 25th anniversary show!

"PLEASE NOTE THAT THE JEFF BECK BAND ALONG WITH SOME SPECIAL GUESTS ARE GOING TO BE TAKING OVER THE SECTION THAT ERIC CLAPTON ORIGINALLY WAS ANCHORING BEFORE HIS UNFORTUNATE HOSPITAL STAY. EVERONE IS WORKING HARD TO MAKE THIS AMAZING AND TO FIT INTO WHAT IS ALREADY GOING TO BE AN GREAT NIGHT WITH ARETHA FRANKLIN, METALLICA AND U2. THERE WILL BE SOME REAL SPECIAL GUESTS THAT NIGHT SO IT WILL BE TERRIFIC!
NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN."
While no one can really replace Clapton, I think this is a good choice. Elsewhere, I read that Clapton's segment was going to concentrate on the Blues and Jeff certainly has the chops.

I was at the opening of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in september 1995. Saturday the 2nd there was a benefit concert with an incredible roster of the rock and roll greats performs—Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Al Green, Jerry Lee Lewis, Aretha Franklin, Johnny Cash, The Pretenders, John Fogerty, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, George Clinton, the Kinks, John Mellencamp, Bruce Springsteen, Booker T. and the MG’s, Eric Burdon and Martha Reeves. They played on a revolving stage which helped save time between acts (just a couple of minutes). It was just fantastic!
I love the Rock and Roll of Fame.
Rock and Roll,

True Jeff has chops but his "chops" are no longer in the blues format.

No problem. I should however have clarified originally that the poster related to the broadcast, not the event itself.
The HBO broadcast on 29/11/09 is a four hour special, I'm led to believe.

Gazza, many thanks for the heads-up!
Sorry I didn't get back to your text but John Paul was over for the footy and things got quite hectic. I literally haven't had a second to myself these last few days!
If Beast asks, tell her we'll text her as soon as we reach our hotel some time tomorrow around noon.
BTW, the entire Tunnel Of Love album will do me just fine!

no live internet stream? that's kinda lame.
Smokey Robinson joins Stevie, and they sing “Tracks of my Tears.”
that right there is worth the price of admission alone, in my opinion.
