WorldBeat



Caught the long awaited rock feature on WorldBeat.  Nothing special on
The Who, but it was an interesting show and great that CNN remembered
to include TED--good exposure.  The first segment was about longevity
in RnR, and included such folks as Page (and the Crowes), The Who,
Rolling Stones, U2, REM, Pearl Jam, Metallica, and Kiss (who got a
special mention for marketing).  A few words from Roger and Pete
interviews, nothing from John.  Brief footage from one of last fall's
shows.

The second segment was about women in RnR, and the last about world
RnR, including Latin, Japanese, German and Pakistani (very
interesting).

Page commented that RnR was going to get better, and maybe this show is
an indication of renewed interest.  CNN said to look for interviews at
their website: http://www.cnn.com/worldbeat/ but right off I don't see
any from TED.
