No question brother, no question. Requires rare power to fully inhabit Roger Daltrey's vocals. Vedder has that power. He does The Who material better than his own.
Fun fact: Foo Fighters asked Incubus to play I Can't Explain for them because Dave was sick and having vocal issues. Incubus learned the song in their trailer.
All of the bands were amazing. But for me, Pearl Jam do THE best covers of Who tracks. The energy (from every one of them) is amazing. I discovered over Christmas that an American close friend of our daughter (who we think of as our 3rd daughter 🤗) is a fan of Pearl Jam and she hadn't realised how much Pearl Jam/Eddie Vedder admired The Who, and especially Quadrophenia.
Brilliant covers!! I'm a WHO from way back--first 45 I owned was "See for Miles" in 66--I was impressed with these "new" musicians making it sound awesome!! Of course, the Who was the original punk band!!!
When it comes to rock bands there is The Who and then all those other bands I can’t remember. You might be walking into a who concert with great hearing you,ll be leaving wearing a hearing aid
Absolutely. I've seen Eddie Vedder sing a bunch of their songs with the Who themselves and with Pete solo and never thought he sounded good at all, but Love Reign O'er Me is an incredible song to pull off this impressively. Amazing!
can i honestly say, for my circle of friends anyway, there isnt one of us who doesnt like the who. they may not be our favourite band, but to me, they respect an honorable acknowledgement. personally, i feel there the best rock band to ever take a stage. and not one ounce of that is about smashing instruments in earlier days. a highly influential band. one of the best of all time. and if your one that hates, im sorry you dont get it.
I want to see Eddie Vedder and Foo Fighters do all the songs. Now that would blow your head!

Why the hell isn't this available on disc? I'm not a big fan of Pearl Jam, but with the strings and horns in the back ground, They owned those songs. Wish I could have been there. The sound put out was amazing. This was a rare event.
Pearl Jam was flying so high above the rest, I actually felt bad for the other bands... plus, what was up with the flaming lips, their whole set was a series of off-notes and corny stage antics, and the guy just kept waving his ribbon thingy around the whole time
+74angelwing - It was a medley. I thought it was fantastic fun, done in their garage rock background style and performed from a sincere love of The Who's music with passion and raggedness.
@@nemesisnemesis9156 LOL! He *is* 6' 8". But I take Bob Thorp's point. When PP plays with The Who, he is more of what Entwistle described as a "bass player" whilst JE was a "bass guitarist": th-cam.com/video/ASJxApEz_YA/w-d-xo.html
Eric... I was at the farewell show and lots since... I lived near Toronto and the main classic rock station avoided playing them like the plague.... unless they were in town...
This occurred before Roger was diagnosed and successfully treated for vocal cord dysplasia. His voice was never weaker than during that period: th-cam.com/video/2RKE55UIhDw/w-d-xo.html Over ten years later, it's clearly better, even after singing full out for a full concert: th-cam.com/video/8sTqX4gM1SM/w-d-xo.html
Im not a fan of the flaming lips, but the drummer impressed me. he didnt just smash the ride or crash cymbal for most of the song like a lot of the drummers did.
I honestly hope you're joking. Eddie Vedder performed amazingly and did these songs justice. Roger Daltrey personally contacted Vedder to sing Love, Reign O'er Me for the movie Reign Over Me, which I doubt would have been the case if he felt that Eddie couldn't sing. So please, excuse yourself from a video when all you want to do is trash talk the performance. Thanks.
Sorry, but when I converted the original mkv file to flv youtube, the video has lost a lot of quality! Soon I will post a video with a better conversion!
Everyone has their own opinion & here's mine. Pearl Jam nailed their songs. Even tho the whole crowd must be on valium, nobody could nail 'Love rain o'er me" like Vedder, and I'm no real big Pearl Jam fan. =)
Zak Starkey sure is amazing as the 3rd drummer of the Who. Obviously Zak prefers to stay under the radar of fame and the Rock Star persona many musicians fall prey too. A very unassuming man who likes to let his drumming and performance do the talking. Kenny Jones of the small faces, while a good drummer just wasn't the best fit for the Who. John Entwistle was a big supporter of Kenny and that gave him a lifeline. In the end both Roger and Pete knew Kenny Jones needed to get the Axe. Zak hit the ground running when he landed the job of drummer for the Who, Roger and Pete sing his praises. The amazing thing is Ringo Star didn't want his son to pursue a career in music and would rather his son become a lawyer or a doctor. Ringo Star, drummer of the Beatles is proud of his sons success. Another excellent drummer is Jason Bonam who's father is the Late Bonzo, drummer of Led Zeppelin, Jason is currently working with Sammy Haggar and is doing very well.
Motor City.., what do you spect? Roger had been singing for more than 40 years that at his 64 the man sounds very amazing considering he also had issues with his vocal cords. He was and will be the best vocalist period 😍
All y'all gushing about "how great all the acts were" are full of it: the only stand-out GOOD act [believe it or not] was Adam Sandler who you could tell was really excited & happy to be playing w/ the WHO! - most of the rest of them were sluggards who kept messing up until a couple of old f!cking men came out AND SCHOOLED ALL THE YOUNGSTERS ON *HOW TO ROCK AND ROLL!!!* So glad I was there to bear witness. Y'all should be ashamed of yourseln for lying about that night. Meaty & Bouncy kicked ass & took names, and it was clear Adam was the only one who felt honored to *have* the honor of honoring his heroes!
I was treated so well by ROGER the entire weekend. The only thing that disappointed me is the two songs VH1 cut out. The most important songs was THE WHO coming out and you cut out You Better You Bet and 2,000 years.....why cut those two songs out...we would LOVE a DVD including those two songs PLEASE!!!! That is me at the end who he got on his knees and told me a sweet farewell with the light blue ball cap. Alyce
Let's be honest any artist or band that try to cover the Who have to contend with the fact that Moon was one of the greatest, if not the greatest drummer of all time, Entwhistle was one of the greatest, if not the greatest bassist of all time, Townsend was one of the greatest if not the greatest songwriters and rhythm guitarists of all time and Daltrey was one of the greatest if not the greatest rock singer & front man of all time. And add in the fact that they played ridiculously well together, well anything else is mostly likely to be a pale copy at best. Having said all that, the Foos did a pretty decent job and Pearl Jam were fucking excellent.
Couldnt the Foo Fighters find a song written by The Who? There are a gazillion of good songs written by Pete Townshend! How about Heaven and Hell, well written by Entwistle but anyhow! Pearl Jam took everyone to school in this concert!
![Live Aid (Queen) Full Concert [1985, London, Wembley Stadium]](/img/n.gif)
Vedder's cover was the FAR and away the highlight of this tribute
No question brother, no question. Requires rare power to fully inhabit Roger Daltrey's vocals. Vedder has that power. He does The Who material better than his own.
this concert showed why the who is so respected by other rock bands. Paul McCartney said his favorite rock band of all time was the who.
Mine too
Anyone Who thinks Eddie Vedder can't sing is Stupid! He Nailed Rain on Me!! I had that Swelling Feeling like I was gonna cry!
I remember being extremely pumped for this show, only for our cable to get cut the week before
Eddie's rendition of Love reign o'er me is the best I have ever heard after Daltrey of course.
I love The Who but I’m gonna say Eddie was way fucking better!!!
@@JL-xc2rd How? Might need your ears checked lol
Fun fact: Foo Fighters asked Incubus to play I Can't Explain for them because Dave was sick and having vocal issues. Incubus learned the song in their trailer.
Pearl Jam just makes everyone else look like amateur hour, what a performance!
They were awesome 😁👋 👋👋 👋👋 👋
All of the bands were amazing. But for me, Pearl Jam do THE best covers of Who tracks. The energy (from every one of them) is amazing. I discovered over Christmas that an American close friend of our daughter (who we think of as our 3rd daughter 🤗) is a fan of Pearl Jam and she hadn't realised how much Pearl Jam/Eddie Vedder admired The Who, and especially Quadrophenia.
Pearl Jam took a shit on all the other bands, nuff said!
Agreed, PJ was the best by far. They are an incredible live band. I did enjoy the Flaming Lips too, especially since I was stoned when I watched this.
The Flaming Lips Knocked that show out of the park!! been saying it for years
There wasn’t a bad performance out of this bunch, but yeah, Pearl Jam blew everyone out of the water. Great stuff overall.
Pearl Jam was fantastic!! Oohh my goodness Eddie did a amazing job singing!! I have always love The Who!! 😊🤘💗✌️
Pearl Jam steals the show... love Vedder's sick raw scream in "Love, reign o' er me" (31:48 & 32:27), nailed to Daltrey's raw power vocals.
Brilliant covers!! I'm a WHO from way back--first 45 I owned was "See for Miles" in 66--I was impressed with these "new" musicians making it sound awesome!! Of course, the Who was the original punk band!!!
They definitely kicked it 👍👍 👍👍 👍
They should have stopped after Keith died.
Pete Townshend, my all time favorite guitarist and celebrity.
When it comes to rock bands there is The Who and then all those other bands I can’t remember. You might be walking into a who concert with great hearing you,ll be leaving wearing a hearing aid
the who will never die
Pearl Jam are fucking amazing.
WHATS WRONG WITH THE VOLUME ON THE SOUND!! THIS WAS A KICK-ASS CONCERT. COME OOOOON!!!
If the whole concert was HQ audio, you-tube would keep taking it down.
So many great moments in this that just get better every time I watch it. FF’s “Best I Ever Had” and PJ’s “Love, Reign O’er Me”...among many.
Absolutely. I've seen Eddie Vedder sing a bunch of their songs with the Who themselves and with Pete solo and never thought he sounded good at all, but Love Reign O'er Me is an incredible song to pull off this impressively. Amazing!
Agreed 💯 Eddie was stunning 😁
Incubus is so damn good, Love Reign by Pearl Jam still gives me goosebumps
can i honestly say, for my circle of friends anyway, there isnt one of us who doesnt like the who. they may not be our favourite band, but to me, they respect an honorable acknowledgement. personally, i feel there the best rock band to ever take a stage. and not one ounce of that is about smashing instruments in earlier days. a highly influential band. one of the best of all time. and if your one that hates, im sorry you dont get it.
+Jo mic the who or queen tricky one but the who are great
Definitely put on one hell of a show
I enjoyed it all. The Who still rock.
My favorite track off this concert was at 27:14 with Eddie Vedder doing Love Reign Ore Me.
Mine also outstanding 🤩😍😁👍👍👍👍😁😍😍😍👍
eddie vedder wins the tribute contest the rest of you can go home
now bring out THE WHO!
'The D'!!! with Squeeze Box were outstanding. And Incubus made those 2 song my new favorite Who covers.
Absolutely amazing tribute from fantastic musicians 👏👏👍👍👍

DONT BE STUPID YOU IDIOT
Dave Grohl knows what he is doing, the FF drummer channels a great KM. Love the skeleton suit on the Bass Guitarist (as JAE would say).
I wish they'd continued yearly Rock Honours, perhaps for Led Zeppelin and other such deserving acts.
History has reminded us, again and again, that something is either good or it isn't.
The Flaming Lips' Pinball Wizard is awesome!!
Simply The Who
Totally enjoyed this, but damn without Entwistle, the bass is so much more downsized. The Who will always be one of the greats in Rock 'N' Roll.
Pino Palladino is no "downsize " !
@@nemesisnemesis9156
LOL! He *is* 6' 8".
But I take Bob Thorp's point. When PP plays with The Who, he is more of what Entwistle described as a "bass player" whilst JE was a "bass guitarist":
th-cam.com/video/ASJxApEz_YA/w-d-xo.html
Yep😁👍👍👍👍
No Entwistle = no Who.
@@nemesisnemesis9156 Fuck you he's not.
Incubus, Foo Fighters, Tenacious D ...WOW!!!
eddie vedder threw down and kicked serious ass! I thought he was awesome. sometimes I wonder about some of you "commenters" lol
Eric... I was at the farewell show and lots since... I lived near Toronto and the main classic rock station avoided playing them like the plague.... unless they were in town...
Flaming lips were fantastic

This is rock n roll as it should be......
I studied Starkey’s performance here. I play these songs like he does now. #Legend
TD rock like the rock gods that they are!!!!!!
Im not a fan of the flaming lips, but the drummer impressed me. he didnt just smash the ride or crash cymbal for most of the song like a lot of the drummers did.
Like MOON did, you moron.
PJ steal the show, they come the closest to the who sound but the rest are all great as well.Long live rock
except for The Who
The Flaming Lips won this one by a shade from Pearl Jam in my humbles :)
I honestly hope you're joking. Eddie Vedder performed amazingly and did these songs justice. Roger Daltrey personally contacted Vedder to sing Love, Reign O'er Me for the movie Reign Over Me, which I doubt would have been the case if he felt that Eddie couldn't sing.

wow eddie killed the vocals on love reign on me.
Certainly did 👋🤩👋🤩👋🤩freaking fabulous

Sorry, but when I converted the original mkv file to flv youtube, the video has lost a lot of quality! Soon I will post a video with a better conversion!
Thanks a lot for this quality.I', goona download the 720 version,I'll hope it´s ok.thanks
Only Eddie and Pearl Jam can make me rain.
Is that Gaz from Supergrass? Quality!
The best there ever was, or ever will be.
Must say. I got a bit teary eyed at the end

SPECTACULAR!
Rogers voice is a shadow of what it was even before this in 2008.
My favorite vocalist but all things must pass.................
Motor City Man did you see them at Joe Louis area? I thought they were fantastic??!!!
Woody10719
Last I saw them was San Diego Sports Arena about 2005, Roger couldn't hit high notes even then........
Motor City.., what do you spect? Roger had been singing for more than 40 years that at his 64 the man sounds very amazing considering he also had issues with his vocal cords. He was and will be the best vocalist period 😍
@@motorcityman401 Now he uses auto-tune live.
I just saw him in Boston a few weeks ago...at 80, he still has it.
Pearl Jam were good, but nailed it ? The Who just now can't even nail it. Simply because they miss the 2 most vital cogs, Moon and Entwhistle.
All y'all gushing about "how great all the acts were" are full of it: the only stand-out GOOD act [believe it or not] was Adam Sandler who you could tell was really excited & happy to be playing w/ the WHO! - most of the rest of them were sluggards who kept messing up until a couple of old f!cking men came out AND SCHOOLED ALL THE YOUNGSTERS ON *HOW TO ROCK AND ROLL!!!* So glad I was there to bear witness.

Wow very good
The dude from super grass got it goin on, hells yes! Plus the volume sux
How in the hell is this classified as HD?
Sound realy great. Setlist? And who the fuck are all these people?
and the Flaming Lips got the performance to be fair
love reign o'er me stole te show, agree on that.
but the flaming lips doing the tommy medley was my favorite momment...they nialed that one.

thought it was written by the Who...interesting, only performed by the Who...famously...nothing wrong with using this, right?
Yes, Sir! Heaven and Hell is one of my Favorites ! Okay, so I have a hundred favorite Who songs? Don't you?
Bargain was written by Townshend. Besides, The Who immortalized Young Man Blues, so it makes sense.
They have rock music, rock and roll music. How come they don't have roll music?
YEAH MAN GAZ COOMBES WITH THE FOO FIGHTERS!
Dave Grohl unreal!
Love you Davey goliath
The quality of this video is terrible and the audio is muffled. Too bad there are some great performances.
isn't there a better video and audio quality of this?
There once was a high quality recording of this entire show on VH1's Rock Honors site but regrettably they've taken it down and moved on.
tenacious d rocked
Daltry -Townsend harmony on Behind Blue Eyes is everything!!!!!!!!!
DALTREY - TOWNSHEND. Spell 'em right for Pete's sake! ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠
OMG jam @ 9:00 is way epic!
For a few moments I thought that there will be a nice guitar smash in the end of Who Are You...
Adam Sandler Good :)))
Does somebody has a better audio version of this?, it's great to have it fully uploaded, but I would for sure love a better audio version.
los que se llevan la noche son los de the who
Ce num ia melhorar isso ai veio? Isso é ouro !! Abs
WGFA was editied out of the broadcast. Does anyone have an unedited full performance of the Who's set?
great concert ,the volume stinks , it doesn't do justice to these musicians ,they are playing their hearts out , its rock n roll , it should be loud.
he returned during the In Your Honor tour that was 2006 this was 07? i dont know just wondering
