The lowlight of the evening came when Sanjaya Malakar performed the Kinks' "Really Got Me" with none other than Joe Perry of Aerosmith. If you listen carefully while playing the video below, the crashing noise at the beginning of the performance is Perry's remaining street cred falling to the ground. Good Lord, Joe. Thirty years ago you were belting out such great albums as "Toys in the Attic," "Rocks," and "Draw the Line." Now you're playing with a no talent hack singer. If you thought Joe Perry had bottomed out using all those drugs during the 1970s and 80s, that ain't nothin'.
On a journey to the heart of darkness and futility.

Toys in the...crapper
My wife and I wound up watching the American Idol finale the other night. I wasn't really interested in who won, but sometimes it's in my interest to know who the next flash in the pan celebrity will be. To my surprise Green Day performed, doing an excellent version of John Lennon's "Working Class Hero," even if Billie Joe looked liked he'd rather be anywhere but there.
