I don't get it either lol

I will sound like an old fogey, but I feel like people are really embracing bands like the Eagles, Stones, Beatles, Fleetwood Mac right now and hanging on like grim death to them because there is simply no music that will fill the void when they stop performing - nothing, really nothing for the past 20 years, and none coming up. U2 and Pearl Jam's music will have some viability, maybe. None of today's music will sound good 20 or 30 years from now. I do like Get Lucky, but that's because it sounds like it's straight out of the late '70s.
TIVOing the show so I can fast forward as needed later tonight. Yay Joe!
They just said "Paul McCartney with a very special guest" coming up.
I spotted him in a clip, too. Hope he's on soon.
As for modern music, I actually enjoy Pink, Bruno Mars, Lorde, Beyonce... but I hate how much spectacle and vulgarity is inserted into it now. There's always been sexuality involved, but the lyrics having to be bleeped in pop tunes... that used to be reserved for gangsta rap. The special effects, acrobatics, etc. are lame, too. I want to hear the music, not watch you show off your trapeze skills.
Hey, someone tell Beyonce and Jay-Z to stop dancing and sit down, they're blocking the people behind them.
I know, Soda. I was like Joe didn't sing with his brother in law. It was good to see Peter Frampton with him.
I have found that the mute button comes in handy for these shows!
I saw a tweet from last night's Eagles concert that said it was so nice to go listen to a group that knows what music is and knows what guitars are for. He was with his parents and lamented that he wouldn't be able to take his son to a concert twenty years from now because music would be dead by then.

You can't change the world but you can change yourself.
I couldn't agree more. Teens today absolutely love the artists you mention. I agree that it's simply because it was great music and there's nothing at all like it today. I feel sorry for today's kids. Graduating in 1985 I really caught the tail end of all that was wonderful in popular music. It was all down hill from there.
Wintertime is a razor blade that the devil made

I don't think Joe is performing, but it was good to see him on the camera.
