Roger Waters was an easy no 1. Highlight of the eve--Comfortably Numb Bruce too much sermon-type stuff--would have worked better near the end of the show. Clapton all good. Chris Martin very good. Who--very good effort understanding that Roger is missing or no longer attempting the high notes. My old visions of the totally cool Daltrey (vintage 69 thru 79) have been replaced by the face of a dowdy grandma who is dying to show us her/his muscles (we know you work out and shave---just tell me next time don't show me).
The Stones have mailed it in for years. Mick--stop jumping around and talking through the songs. Just doesn't look right anymore. The stones should stop performing so they don't obliterate my great memories of their tours in the 70s, 80s and 90s. McCartney has so much plastic surgery that he looks sad when he's happy and happy when he's sad ---but he sounded very good although his valentine song took the wind out of the place-awful.
Oh, let's not forget another standout --Alicia Keys. Can't comment on BonJovi and Joel because I don't like their music.
I give the concert a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10.
Really want to see how great concerts like this can be? Check out rock n roll hall of fame concert at the Garden---especially on blu-ray (one of the best of it's kind ever). I will admit that the hall of fame had a much greater lead time and rehearsal opportunities---but what a great show with Jagger and Bruce really shining and so many others. Concert for 9/11 also pretty good.
