Vince Neil the Chipmunk

I had to go back and look at ‘s performance at .

For anyone else who watched/taped that performance: Was Vince Neil actually singing the verses or did it sound like chipmunk gibberish followed by clear choruses?

It really sounded like: “Shwee wa woo hee hee Dr. Feelgood.”

Jamming for poverty in Barrie

Watching the “Greatest Hits” summary of the various Live8 concerts around the world on CTV. Watching a recap of (which is really ). Neil Young and most of the bands that performed there jammed on Young’s “Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World” and then segued into a rendition of “O Canada.”

Jamming is the one great thing that musicians have over most other artists. You can get newcomers and legends sharing the stage and trading riffs. A bunch of actors can’t do that in the same way.

One moment that wasn’t shown in the summary: Dan Aykroyd and Tom Green trying to shush the booing that greeted Celine Dion’s “live from Las Vegas” performance.
