Overall, a good show. The highpoint being Celine Dion's "God Bless America".

QUESTION: Does anyone know the name of the song Limp Bizkit/Goo Goo Dolls did together? I thought it was Incubus' "I Wish You Were Here". It's not "Wishing You Were Here" by Chicago, either. Maybe it's a Goo Goo Dolls/Limp song. I don't know.

Anyone?

Dolls/Limp

Uh... Pink Floyd, isn't it?

(Ducks under the desk)

Anywho, it was an excellent version. Maybe they should put out the CD and give the profits to United Way.

I meant from an emotional standpoint. I liked Limp/Goo Goo Dolls' version of "Wish You Were Here" the best.

Dave Matthews performing "Everyday" God I love that guy (in a non-sexual way). Also, I liked the U2 performance.

i've always thought that matthews was for retardards, granted his Under the Table album is pretty good, the rest simply all sound the same and are tiresome. i've never cared for U2 either... they keep trying to revive rock and roll... they are too liberal and too lame.

however, Young got up there and said what needed to be said. that performance was the keystone of the night. we needed some one to say lennon's words since he could not be there to say them for himself. and i for one am thankful it was Neil Young. We needed something to us from the idea of just performing the latest hit-parade like mathews did.

There's something you should know I want to make it clear, So I'm going to sing it slow If you weren't a man, And my father, too, I'd buy you a diamond ring, And then I'd marry you.

Edward StammThe Rack

I'm showing my age, but I knew what song they were playing from the first three chords. (Yes, Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here.) Of course, I had no idea in the world who the group was. I finally found out the next day it was Limp Bizkit. Had never heard of them before.....

The first four chords are really distinctive. I can't help but think that lick sounds like another rock song, however.

Limp Bizkit with Goo Goo Dolls' lead singer (don't know his name. The guy on the left of the screen, not Mr. Durst). I figured out it was Pink Floyd's song later... there's just too many songs that begin with the line "Wish you were here"... or "Wishing you were here..." etc.

I enjoyed Neil Young and Eddie Vedder's performance of Long Road (off Merkin Ball for those curious). I haven't seen the whole show, just video and sound clips from the internet. Does anyone know the set list?

Thanks, ~Nick
