You might not like all of this year's choices, but the all-star jam at the end of it all was as good as there's ever been in one of the ceremonies
Cheap Trick stayed in place on the stage
Add the horn section from Chicago
Roger Glover, Glenn Hughes, and David Coverdale from Deep Purple
Steve Miller
Sheryl Crow
Grace Potter (playing guitar, too)
and Rob Thomas wandering around looking for a microphone to sing into.
interestingly... no one from NWA still on the stage. Even Public Enemy joined the all-star jam at the end the year they went in.
