Year in and year out, the best "awards" show every year. Never miss it.

the Buddy Guy tribute kicked butt. Led Zep tribute is going to be awesome, Jason Bonham on drums, Lenny Kravitz, Foo Fighters...

The way a tribute should be, Ann on vocals and Jason on Drums.

I actually thought the Foo Fighters were a little weak on Long Time Since....but Heart, Bonham and choir kicked ass on Stairway. Best line of the night was when Kimmel told Letterman everyone was there to see him except for the few who cam to see "the ballerina" whoever the fuck she is.

They said of Robert Plant "American blues was his everything." Buddy Guy is a living legend that was part of what gave us Rock and Roll.

Beth Hart is fantastic. Saw her this year in a small club, ~200 people.

Hilarious watching rich white folk trying to groove to Buddy Guy and Led Zep acting like they listen to these guys everyday!

Looked like the Zeppelin guys were truly touched during Stairway. I was never a huge Heart fan, but that was an out of this world performance and wonderful tribute.

They sure were, and I also agree that the Wilson sisters were excellent!
