I remember watching The Black Eyed Peas and saying that was the worst thing that I ever saw in my life. These people are a successful recording artist? Four musical imbeciles. It was that awful.

Stones are #11, actually - but thanx for sharing!

Those individual "levitating" stage platforms were impressive, but other than that the performance was visually and musically monotonous.

Prince WAS the best. He really nailed it.
The Stones well… it was cool they did a new song to promote the album, but the sound was a bit off. High energy sure, cool stage, good playing… the sound marred it. Come to think of it, didn’t we have a guy on here who knew something about it. As I recall it was something with the soundcheck and an engineer not saving the settings or something. The Stones went in there “blind”. Someone correct me.
Springsteen was cool too.

This made me think of Robert California/The Office..
He said the Black Eyed Peas were rock n roll for people who don’t like rock n roll, rap for people who don’t like rap and pop for people who don’t like pop.

I thought Rihanna was fantastic. The visual on the floating platforms was probably the most memorable of all time. Although I thought there were too many dancers in those white hazmat outfits and it would have been better with about a third of them. I actually reminded me of Bowie's glass spider tour where the were so many people on stage you had to struggle to decipher which one bowie was.
Also Rihanna's "Special guest" the baby she is carrying was ridiculouly cute!
As far as the Stones performance the audio was off. And the "Fake fans" they had around the stage was comprised of very young people who were paid to jump up and down in a way over the top and not very believable manor. Sort of the way Shine a light filmed paid models. So much for "Rock and Roll growing up" as we have been told.
