Not me!

Queens of the Stone Age will honor ZZ Top since they are friends with Billy Gibbons, and he is on the upcoming and last album.
My guess is that Alice in Chains will honor Ozzy.
Gretchen Wilson and Keane will honor Heart.
Nickelback will honor Genesis.

Alice in Chains will honor Heart. Jerry Cantrell is a big fan of theirs and one of their singers guest starred on AIC's "Brother" from the Sap album.
Queens of the Stone Age will honor ZZ Top.

There are more tribute bands than honorees. But this is how it is:
ALICE IN CHAINS = OZZY
NICKELBACK + QUEENS = ZZ TOP
GRETCHEN WILSON = HEART
KEANE = GENESIS

I don't know if you call what he does special effects, magic, or other, but that show Mind Freak keeps me on the edge of my seat. Kickass intro music too.

Im sure AiC will tribute Ozzy, and probably jam with Hear too....
Jerry Cantrell is the Iommi of the 90s...
Both are masters of heavy crunchy riffs!

will be there and I think are also playing at the event. I doubt there will be a tribute to them. They'll tribute themselves.

Alice In Chains could easily cover both Heart and Ozzy. Ann sang on SAP. Alice In Chains played with them on their tour. Jerry and Ann's voices together are amazing. I'd like to know what Ozzy songs Alice In Chains would cover.
Can wait for the show.

This is simple what does AIC not have? Layne Stanly...
Gretchen Wilson Plus AIC = Heart
Nickelback = Ozzy
Keane = Genesis
QOTSA = ZZ Top

whoever thought it was a good idea to invite nickelback should be banned from making future decisions.
