[@nikoletta7678]

It was a concert that you never wanted to have to do, but you performed impeccably. When I saw you come out on stage I was even nervous! I've never understood it when people declare that they are proud of a celebrity, but I really felt it on Saturday and I really wanted you to nail it. I think I even punched the air when you finished Under Pressure. You were awesome, but then again you always have been.

He looked like he was having as much fun as one is allowed at a somber event and he brought that to the stage w/ him each time. How could the bands not love him? Really impressive, indeed, costume changes and all! Blown away, a perfect summation, Tom, thank-you! (though NOT blown away surprised, blown away impressed).

[@AdamForeman]

My biggest question is, why do we have to wait for someone so talented to pass away to have one of these amazing concerts of the best musicians and rock legends to come together and play a huge concert like the Taylor Hawkins tribute? We need more of these.

[@davetherave9222]

A million reasons.

[@theritchie2173]

Who (among the living) do you propose for the next one? Take Sir Paul, for example, or Bruce Springsteen - you probably couldn't pick many examples of more beloved musicians who are currently still alive (personal music tastes aside). Would you really expect rock royalty to turn up en masse for some random 'we love you' show? These crossovers happen all the time, but you'll never hit something on this scale without that deep, burning hurt that comes from a life gone too soon.

[@AdamForeman]

@@theritchie2173 but that's my point, why wait until someone passes? If Dave can get people to come together and perform a huge rock legend tribute, can we not have just a concert every year for a charity of say lost music legends of the past not before they die that creates a need for one. Look at the size of the crowd? Then we have the 2nd concert in America coming up with different musicians, it's awesome, but at what expense? Death?

[@FlockofSmeagles]

@@AdamForeman Because that special feeling that you get when people unite under one cause would become stale, curated, and not so special, that's why.

Outside of emotions regarding Taylor, what made me emotional during the show the most was thinking about how at some point in time, your daughter will realize just how extra freaking cool her dad is, beyond what she already thought. And that she will be able to see this footage for the rest of her life feeling proud! :-)

[@kernelpickle]

Sadly, she’ll only realize how cool he is after he’s gone. All Dads are total dorks until they aren’t around to tease anymore, that’s when it sinks in how cool they were.

@@kernelpickle : Strongly disagree, Kernelpickle. If Justin's daughter is a Daddy's girl like I was, Dad can do NO wrong ever. Even if she's not, I'm sure if she hasn't realized it yet, she will realize that her Dad is very very cool and long before he's finished his journey of life.

[@kernelpickle]

@540マンモス My Dad was definitely a dork, and was one of those guys back in the day that looked like he was an extra in Revenge of the Nerds. That said, I've also heard rock stars like Dave Grohl and other heroes of mine talk about their kids in interviews, and they've been asked what their kids think of their legendary Dad's and it's always "my kids think I'm a total dork and are embarrassed." There was a video of the RHCP playing a show in Halloween costumes at one of their kid's Elementary School a few years back, and apparently the kid was super embarrassed that their Dad showed up at their school with all his friends, especially because the teachers were all Millennials that were losing their minds. On the flip-side a Phil Collins, a guy my nerdy ass Dad loved in his heyday, married a much younger woman and their young son was in the junior high band, and the band director had the kids playing some of his songs and they had him come on stage to sing for the parents at their concert--the only one who looked embarrassed was Phil, and all the kids thought it was great, so figure that one out. Stuff everyone I grew up with thought was lame became cool in an ironic (but kinda not really) sort of way, and the stuff that was always cool has become lame and embarrassing to much younger kids growing up today. So, not throwing shade I'm just making an observation and it doesn't mean anyone loves their Dad any less, but it's rare for kids to think their Dad's are cool their entire life. There's that period when they're younger, and then their school aged years when parents are lame, and then sometime during or after college it flips back around again. If you can't recall going through phases, I'd bet you just forgot.

[@VINTAGEBACKYARDRC]

Which seems physically impossible, but long may it continue.

Justin you killed it..your attitude etc added to the performance. the vh performance was so great

[@bryanlatrobe9262]

Justin achieved his destiny with this. From these snippets alone it's a must watch. Can we still pay to see this??

[@fultondegois2229]

You're a Legend Justin. Love The Darkness, you are equal to all Rock Gods after Tailors Tribute. Whoa, what a performance man.

Keep up the good work Justin 🤙 I grew up in the uk, but moved away to Australia 20 years ago. I remember your songs from when your band first set out, I wasn’t a mega fan but I found them catchy. To find your KZbin channel many years later, and to see how knowledgeable and entertaining you are has been awesome. Wishing you all the best with all your future endeavors.

You did great and made everyone proud, I hope you manage to get some rest and emotionally recover from what I imagine was an extremely stressful time. 💜

[@Bert4Prez]

Didn't realize there was an issue, and we were in the front pit... We are still processing the gig and trying to recuperate back home in Canada! You fucking rocked by the way!

When you lot played hot for teacher, I was hypnotised. Well done Justin you absolutely smashed every song.

[@Shalamalabingbong]

That microphone moment was hilarious, a very welcome moment to laugh and smile during a really emotional day. I had no intention of watching it all, I was saying "I'll just watch this person" and then another legend would appear so I couldn't leave! You all did your friend very proud and it was lovely. A real celebration.

I can't add anything which hasn't been said here already - it was an amazing day from start to finish. I know it's hardly the point, but it's nice to see you got a well-deserved subscriber boost since the show - you obviously impressed more people than just us lot.

[@jaystel2381]

[@nedrysoft]
