Decent stuff...
one thing its hard to hear Cash's music without his voice.. but I thought some of it came out... "nice"
Dwight Yokum and the crosseyed chick's song was the best to me.
sherryl crows was crap.

i hated it all...U2, what the fuck? Kid Rock...what the fuck?
they should asked the White Stripes to do a song. its a publicity stunt, too bad they're exploiting such an EPOCK man.

It was all friends of johnny cash. U2 was there because they already did that song with Cash. Kid Rock has used Johnny Cash multiple times. One thing about Cash is he was cool with everyone. Most of the artist there last night were people he has helped at one point and time in their careers.

they totally ripped his songs, i hated it. one thing the Stripes could have done was keep it simple just like Johnny did.
i'm gonna get a box set of his stuff called "The Sun Records Recordings"

I thought the same thing. This was basically a one hour "trailer" for the movie.
But, my review. I thought Brad Paisley (first guy) did a fantastic job with Folsum Prison. I hated Kid Rock, but it was nice to see Jerry Lee playing and singing even though he sucked pretty bad. He is a legend.
I thought Nora Jones fucking nailed that song "Home of the Blues". She has an excellent voice and even did good with Sunday Morning Coming Down.
I hated all of the June Carter stuff. I never liked her Bluegrass style anyway. She might have saved his life and he might have loved her, but her music sucked and everything she did with him sucked, too. His style was what people liked.
U2's song was okay.
What I liked the most was that the show was solid performing from one end to the other. Not very good at times, but no filler bullshit to take away from it. They came close to hitting one out of the park, but missed.

Exactly..
Jerry Lee Lewis is a shell of his former self. But he and cash were very tight.
Kris Kristoferson is alright.. nothing special.. but cash made him.
I don't like any of june carters stuff either.. just don't like her voice or any of it. But I didn't think some of the songs came off alright.. I did like sundy morning and a couple of others..

I totally agree.
Norah Jones is amazing. Her voice is one of the only truly beautiful voices in all of music today.
