Blue Suede Shoes Monster Jam

I'm not positive what the celebration was, but I believe it was for Les Paul (and a belated R.I.P. to the man who may have shaped rock music more than anyone else).  I'm also not sure of the when, but I'd place it at the mid-'80s just from Edward Van Halen's appearance.

So, you've got Les Paul introducing the Stray Cats, who break into "Blue Suede Shoes". Then during the solo, Brian Seltzer calls out EVH, B.B. King, David Gilmour, Steve Miller, and Jan Hammer.  Then Les finishes up the jam. 

Not many stages have held that much talent on it before.
