I saw a lot of it - kind of dragged in the beginning, and some artists I "skipped", but in general a great event, and they collected some much needed funds for everyone.

My favorite line: Mick Jagger - "This must be the most old English gentlemen gathered together...in Madison Square Garden!".

But no one told McCartney he's old - what a rockin' version of "Helter Skelter"! And playing a new song ("Cut Me Some Slack") with ex-Nirvana members - what was that? Paul played some kind of electric cigar box slide guitar. That may have been the hardest rocking song of the night.

I thought the "tribute" of sorts to Keith Moon during 'Busboy' touching, with a salute from Roger at the end. My son and I were wondering why they bothered to edit the f-word - instead of a 7 second delay, the delayed the edit by 7 seconds it seemed. Not like you didn't know it was there in 'Who Are You?' And Pete should wear a longer shirt when he windmills! They still rock though.

Also, why bother with the F-word, when they let the BS-word in "Money" go, and several "rude" words in Adam Sandler's "performance" go...
