Los Angeles, CA rocked on Saturday night (July 12) with some of the biggest names in rock and rock saluting The Who with performances during a taping of VH1's Rock Honors at the Pauley Pavilion (the show airs on July 17), but the best vibes were delivered by the honorees themselves. The Who, which now currently comprises surviving original members Pete Townsend and Roger Daltry, ripped through some of the best classics like "You Better, You Bet" (which was stopped and re-started due to technical issues), "Baba O'Riley," "Behind Blue Eyes," "Won't Get Fooled Again," "The Seeker," "Who Are You" and "My Generation." The band also worked in new material from the 2006 album "Endless Wire," such as "Two Thousand Years" and the stripped-down "Tea & Theatre."
In attendance, and participating, were Pearl Jam, Gaz Coombers (Supergrass), Sean Penn, Tenacious D, Adam Sander, Incubus, Flaming Lips and the Foo Fighters.
