Maybe they'll spare us and just do Beatles songs.

Just opened the live stream and it just says please stand by. Is that right, or is something not working for me?

It's not like McCartney's going to go out there and play Smells Like Teen Spirit. They'll probably just do Hey Jude or some **** like that and be very forgettable. At least I would hope so.

I'm not a big Springsteen fan, but he could have done the Nirvana thing.

Have been watching for a little while, ~150k viewers is pretty pathetic no? Given the A list status of basically everybody there & the time slot

Hmmm not sure. What's the point in Novoselic and Grohl reuniting on stage for the second time in about 18 years and playing someone else's songs?

A couple of observations.

1. It is nice to see 2 of my childhood rock idols open the show. It didn't feel like an ad for the scooter store when Led Zeppelin was on Letterman last week.

2. Ritchie Sambora looks like KD Lang dyed her hair blonde

3. Whoopie Goldberg REALLY looks like the female member of the Muppets band with Dr Teeth and Animal the older she gets.

Yeah.. this is like a no-win. If they do some Beatles songs.. I guess nobody will get embarrassed but that's a waste of a Nirvana reunion.

Eric Clapton's band just doubled the number of black people in the room.
