The legendary band The Who were honored Saturday night at the third annual VH1 Rock Honors. Modern bands such as Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, The Flaming Lips, Tenacious D, and Incubus paid tribute by playing a variety of The Who’s songs to a sold out audience at the Pauley Pavilion on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. A tribute was also paid to John Entwistle, the original bassist, and Keith Moon, the original drummer, who have both unfortunately passed away. The two remaining original members of The Who, singer Roger Daltrey and guitarist Pete Townshend, performed at the end of the show by playing such hits as “Baba O’ Riley,” “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” “My Generation,” and “The Seeker.”

You can catch the show on VH1 on Thursday, July 17 at 9 PM Eastern. You won’t want to miss it.
