Jerry Lee Lewis and Kid Rock doing 'I Walk the Line'
Kris Kristoferson with the Foo Fighers doing 'Sunday Morning Coming Down'
The latter worked pretty well - they really didn't get in each other's way. Kid Rock and JLL, well, JLL was practically stoic behind the keyboard, while Kid Rock was all loosey-goosey.
Kris Kristoferson with Norah Jones worked better ('I Still Miss Someone', I think), and Alison Krauss with Dwight Yoakum doing 'If I Were a Carpenter' just felt natural.
The Jerry Lee Lewis-led everyone on stage finale (Will the Circle Be Unbroken) was painfully under-tempo and overall sucky.
Oh well. Am I actually going to see 'I Walk the Line'. I'm afraid the answer just might be yes. Oh the agony.
