RE: OT: David (BOWIE)/ Glen Frey (Eagles) dead

But I was underwhelmed by the Eagles and Jackson Browne paying tribute to Glenn Frey (even if Bernie Leadon returning for their rendition of Take It Easy was a big bonus).

And on Grammy Day, another one dies way too early as Vanity, sex symbol of the early 1980's and Prince's lead lady for awhile, dies at age 57.

I had a different reaction. I recorded the show just to see the Bowie tribute. I was underwhelmed. I think Lady Gaga is incredibly talented but this struck me more as a cruise show act. Didn't find anything especially touching about the tribute and honestly her vocals didn't wow me (which is surprising given the quality of her voice). I think she would have been better served to perform one of his songs to completion and leave it at that.
