Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Dhani Harrison - George Harrison's son, and, for the life of me I can't recall the gentleman w/the golf cap playing the Stratocaster (help me, here) to Lynne's right, Steve Winwood, others, and Prince.

What? That's right, Prince. The man delivers the performance of his life with the guitar solo at the end of 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' (originally performed by Eric Clapton, btw).

If you watch it, watch it all way to the end.

gravdigr, you and i have a LOT of disagreements
but the fact that you pulled up this video
of Prince ROCKING THE FUCKING BALLS OFF While My Guitar Gently Weeps
TEARING CLAPTON A NEW ONE and PROVING that white-ass appropriative assholes ain't got shit on the black men who INVENTED the shit they steal

and then THROWING HIS GUITAR INTO THE AUDIENCE
and just FUCKIN WALKING OFF cause he dont give a fuck
as one of the greatest performances in history

definitely wins you back at least a handful of points in my book

by FAR the BEST hall-of-fame tribute cover EVER rocked on the Rock Hall's stage

(also can i just say, god-fucking-damn, Mr. Nelson may be a couple decades past his prime, but goddamn that there is still a mighty attractive man even beyond a mighty impressive musician)
