    And not a spandex-clad Greco-Roman in sight - thank God!

    Brandi Carlisle is great.

    But SNL has had some of the best bands in history. I'll choose SNL performances by the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Tom Petty, Prince and Paul McCartney over that one....

    Indeed they are.

    Have seen some great acts on SNL over the years - albeit precious few
    in recent times - including many admittedly bigger names or acts than
    Brandi. But I can't recall ever seeing a live performance that nailed
    it like that one did last week. I particularly enjoyed the breakout
    performance of Nirvana and and Tom Petty, and I'm sure there are
    hundreds more I've missed, but for sheer points for mastery of their
    craft and connecting perfectly with the live audience via the musdical
    artistry rather than gimicks like licking the faces or ripping the
    shirts off band members or ripping up photos of the pope, I don't think
    I've ever seen their equal. Amazing stuff.

    I'm surprised Chad has never received comp tickets to one of their Salt
    Lake City shows...
