Yeah for the amount of time he had it was pretty good with the Who's song. But who picks Duran, Duran on Rock-n-Roll Hall of fame nite? What was he thinking? LOL

I was thinking about his voice and all the inductees on list and he could have done Neil Young's "Cinnamon Girl", Bod Dylan's rocking(almost metallic) version with The Band of "Baby Let Me Follow You Down", Led Zeppelin's "Communication Breakdown", Eric Clapton's "Crossroads", The Doors "Roadhouse Blues" (curious if he could have gotten away with the "I woke up this morning and got myself a beer" part on AI it would have been interesting), Bod Seger's "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man", Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' "Jammin' Me", Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion", The Rolling Stones "Jumping Jack Flash",etc it just seems he really missed a good opportunity here by not going deeper into song selection and really making it his own.

Ugh! No kidding, 'rock lite' (plus I've always hated that song) but he made it palatable.
