VH1 Rock Honors tickets are now available to be bought or sold on Stubhub.com.
For the third year in a row, the VH1 music channel will be hosting a program dedicated to honoring the musical pioneers that shaped the sound of rock ‘n’ roll. This amazing concert typically picks several popular rock bands to honor, then brings aboard a number of modern rock bands to play covers of their hit songs. In the past, honorees have included Queen, Judas Priest, Def Leppard, KISS, ZZ Top, Heart, Genesis and Ozzy Osbourne.
But for their third year, VH1 will be breaking new ground by picking only one band to honor: Legendary mods The Who. The band was influential in shaping the sound of rock ‘n’ roll in the ‘60s, and often were considered rivals of sorts to The Rolling Stones, who were the quintessential rocker band. Though both were different styles of music, there’s no doubt each leaves a long shadow that touches every rock band today, from a small garage outfit to major hit-makers playing out arena-sized venues.
Performances in the past included popular bands that have hits on the radio and greatly respect the honorees. This year, there’s a special treat: Live performances by frontman Pete Townsend and Roger Daltry that will wow every audience member lucky enough to get VH1 Rock Honors tickets before they sell out.
And you can be sure of one thing: Tickets will be scarce come July 12, when the VH1 Rock Honors event commences at Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles. Fans of all music, including rock, will want to scrounge up tickets long before that date, but fans of The Who should especially take this opportunity to see their legendary idols up on stage.
VH1 has been a leader of the pack as far as presenting entertaining programs on music—and especially on the rock genre—in past years. The bands you grew up listening to and first developed your ear for new music have always been recognized on the channel’s exciting programming, and this is yet another presentation you’re not going to want to miss out on. Get tickets now!

Michel Stevenson asked:
“Without music, life would be a mistake” is a famous old saying. However, without the great musicians there is no great music. Those who are really interested in live concerts would have come across the names Tom Petty, Kanye West, Kenny Chesney, and Jimmy Buffett. They are the real music legends. Spare a little time to reading on, to know more about these legends.
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
Tom Petty will be familiar as a singer, song writer, and a guitarist to those who love heartland rock music. The songs like “Don’t Do Me Like That”, “Refugee”, “Runnin’ Down a Dream”, “The Waiting”, “Don’t Come Around Here No More”, “I Won’t Back Down”, “Free Fallin’”, “Mary Jane’s Last Dance”, “American Girl”, “Learning to Fly” and “You Don’t Know How It Feels”, are heavily played hit singles by Tom Petty which act as medicines for broken hearts. Born and raised in Gainesville, Florida, USA, Tom was very much interested in rock and roll music early at the age of 11 when he met Elvis Presley. He began his recording career with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, the band’s 1976 debut album, which was initially unpopular in the United States. Their second album, You’re Gonna Get It! marked the band’s first Top 40 album.
Kanye West
Kanye West, who is one of the great American rap artists and a hip hop producer, released his debut album “The College Dropout” in 2004. His recent, third album being “Graduation” was released in 2007. All his albums received lots of awards (including nine Grammys). Kanye West who was born in Atlanta, Georgia was involved in a near car crash fatal in 2002 while driving home from the recording studio. The crash provided inspiration for West’s first single, “Through the Wire”. Kanye also won the ‘best new artist’ award in 2004.
Kenny Chesney
Everyone who loves to hear music of country genre would have come across the name ‘Kenny Chesney’. Born in Knoxville, Tennessee, Chesney has recorded thirteen albums, eleven of which have been certified gold or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America. ‘I will Stand’ Chesney’s third album for BNA, was released in 1997. “She’s Got It All”, which served as the album’s lead-off single, became Chesney’s first Billboard Number One single, spending three weeks at the top of the country charts.. Yet another enthusiastic artist in the globe!
Jimmy Buffett
Jimmy Buffet, the 62 year old businessman is also a successful singer and a song writer. His band is known as “the Coral Reefer Band”. He has also produced movies recently including hits such as “Margaritaville”. Buffett began his musical career in Nashville, Tennessee during the late 1960s as a country artist and recorded his first album, the folk rock Down to Earth, in 1970. Jimmy Buffett has released over 30 albums, as of October, 2007. In 2007 Buffett received the CMA Event of the Year Award for his song “Hey Good Looking” which featured Alan Jackson and George Strait.
