I'm not going to get caught up in the arguement regarding who deserves an award. Clapton is not lacking for any little trophies or for $$$, and I haven't liked Green Day since Dookie (which is a really good album). From a guitar player's perspective, I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Jeff Beck's tribute to Les Paul. It wasn't my favorite Beck performance but I always enjoy his playing. Plus that Imelda May bird is smokin hot (IMO). Cheers, J
