Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo Performing Heartbreaker @ Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame Induction 2022

[@robpearson108]

SO GLAD THEY BROUGHT MYRON IN ON DRUMS TO PERFORM!

[@Rasmuth]

agreed!

[@shayxtreme]

Me too

[@peterdelaney7061]

He should have been inducted with her. This was a band in every sense of the word. Myron has nearly as many songwriting credits as Benatar did on a number of their albums. R&R HoF blows it again

[@travis1572]

No doubt how cool 😎 is that he rocks

[@michaelcottle6270]

MYRON !!!!!!!

[@redpearl63]

My thoughts exactly, I was floored knowing they brought him along to share this well deserved award. He’s definitely a reason her music was so great

He fucking rules!

He is up there with Peart, Bonham, Collins. Imho.

[@DannyDiess]

@@nightbloodrayna agreed. Pat's vocals Neil's guitar and Myron on drums. I still play all the albums one a weekly basis now for over .well a long long time. OXOXO i keep watching this too. i would love to see a pro dvd of this night i would buy it.

[@malingogmurpussjvm]

Neil Giraldo......one of the most underated guitar players ever.

[@jlobiafra]

Imagine being an unknown guitarist and some suit tells you this woman is looking for a song writing partner. You pack up your things and move to new york, join a great band, become world wide successful, marry that women who happens to be one of the most beautiful women around, and are with her over forty years later. Neil really hit the jackpot

[@danielevans9379]

Man no kidding. Charmed life.

They should also be in the MARRIAGE HALL OF FAME for staying married all these years! WHILE being in Show Business. AMAZING! Love Pat and Neal AND their music!!!!!!!!!

[@darkphasex]

About time they put her in the Hall of Fame! Should have been there a long time ago!

[@SteveOuimette]

Damn, I'm digging her grittier voice. Not quite the range of her younger days but she is on fire. Love love love Pat and Neil!

[@johncollins7423]

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who loves that grittier kind of voice she has now, although I also love her younger voice, too. It's amazing that at almost 70 years of age & the level she has performed at for more than 40 years, that she can still show young singers how it's DONE!

I'm so glad Pat and Neil are inducted in the RRHOF they deserve it. Pat and her band were very influential on the late 70s and 80s rock. She was the queen of rock and pop/rock for a decade strong.

[@justdynee]

Foreigner ? The Guess Who ? Willie Nelson?

[@brittscott4673]

@@justdynee Especially Foreigner an inductee to the RRHOF should at least have a string of hit songs or have been very influential on several popular bands or artists and the influence should be overtly obvious sonically and stylistically.

[@anakina1]

So great to see Myron on the skins. He was always a fan favorite. The Queen is finally in the RnR HOF!

[@abehalford]

es un excelente baterista, sin que se le reconociera tanto su estilo de tocar le dio fuerza a los discos y en vivo mas aun

[@BradYaeger]

Pat is a master class in focused singing and it's something people may not even realize is affecting them but it's critical. In every song, she focuses on singing the WORDS not just the notes. So many singers lose sight of this and for all we know they could be singing about toast, But she tells the story by staying present the whole time and puts flairs and emphasis on specific words and phrases as needed to get the meaning across. I mean take this song for example. She has been happily married to the man right next to her for like 35 years yet she sounds like a lady that really did have her heart broken just 3 days ago and she's not going to take it anymore .

[@kathykb8123]

Yes, yes, yes!!!

[@chefdab]

Also, if you didn't know, she was originally trained as an opera singer.

[@schumi9xwdc]

It’s ultra sensational vibrato!

[@bigsistahtips]

I like not caring about the lyrics and focusing on the harmony and melody of the song. I think music is language in itself.

[@josephyoung2459]

Well today is pats 70th birthday god bless her for still being able to sing and for looking so good so she cannot hit some of the high notes she still is the best happy birthday

[@Psykootje71]
