Rock N Roll Hall of Fame Concert 10/29 MSG


Recommended Posts

I got into the hall fame concert last night for free thanks to 1iota.com. I was sitting behind the stage with an obstructed view but the fact that tickets ranged from $75-2500 I think free sounds good...here was the setlist last night.

Congrats on that! Was Paul Shaeffer leading everything again?

 

 

Don't think so...looks like they all brought their own bands. At least that is what some of the reviews sound like.

 

I figured it would either be Paul S. or Robbie Robertson...but I think they were smart....had revolving stage

That is correct..it was a revolving stage and the headliner bands were the ring leaders for the acts that joined them.

The word at the U2 message boards is that U2 will be joined by a "60s icon". Then there's footage of them rehearsing Gimme Shelter on their 360 stage from 2 days ago. Makes sense.

Also, should be interesting tonight since the other 3 "main acts" listed on the home page are Eric Clapton, Metallica & Aretha Franklin :blink Wow.

I'm guessing that'll be Jeff Beck then? First thought was Clapton but I guess it'd be dissing the rest of his career to call him a 60's legend, lol. :pirate

there's 2 acts in the world who are head and shoulders above all the others... Bruce and Wilco

 

totaly agree, saw Wilco yesterday in London and having seen Bruce 12 times so far, I can

easily say, these two are the best live acts. And I have seen quite a few artist, Dave Matthews

U2, Eric Clapton, Dylan, Neil Young.
