well, one thing the tv show instigated was me dusting off the dvd for The Kids are All Right.

They sure cleaned up Supergrass guy's vocal track for broadcast!! Three songs were cut from the Who set, including Won't Get Fooled Again which was surprising, it seemed like a perfectly good version on the night. Ther broadcast even ends 5 minutes early and they cut to an old Who clip from 1970, it's very strange. But apart from that, and shuffling the order a bit, it seemed very true to the live performance.

Rainn Wilson dressed as the Pinball Wizard was one of the greatest things I have ever seen on a stage. I really felt like Vedder was one of the few singers who could pull off Love Reign O’er Me. There would be points where I just expected his voice to break, that place where all of us go quiet and give up during Loooooooovvveeee and he was so crisp and clear - he had it in the bag. The green laser beams also made me feel like I was in the video game TRON.
