I thought, outside of Roger Waters, it was pretty underwhelming for the most part. I didn't get a chance to catch Springsteen until the end, when Bon Jovi came out and ruined everything. The Who were pretty bad. McCartney was decent. I'm pretty sure Keith Richards' amp wasn't hooked up.

(IMO)
Bruce Springsteen - Started slow but got better until Bon Jovi "helped"
Jon Bon Jovi - Not a fan but he sounded okay if you like his music
Eric Clapton - Thought he was great
Roger Waters & Eddie Vedder - Thought they both were great, Waters voice is fading.
The Who - Terrible
The Rolling Stones - Very short set, Mick is still good, the others are half dead
Alicia - Not my style of music but she sounded really good to me
Kanye - Didn't listen
Chris Martin - Pretty good, excellent cameo by Michael Stipe of REM
Billy Joel - If you're a fan you'll like it, his voice isn't aging well
Nirvana - Only played one song with Paul
and Paul McCartney - Great as always
