Really strong and tasteful performance by the entire band. Vince, Paul F and Billy Thomas were exceptional.

I missed the show but it looks like there are some clips on CMT.com. I tried watching but it says it's not available in my region..not sure if that's because I'm outside the US or what but hopefully others have better luck viewing.....

CMT Crossroads has been my favorite music show for years. I just haven't had access to CMT since January. Bummer. They have had some real great combinations over the years.

For those who don't know what the show is, it takes one artist from country and one from rock/pop and they sing each others songs, use each others band and usually sing the songs as duets. Great concept.

EDITED: Link won't work here even though the URL was correct. :x :x :x

Great show!! Seems they really enjoyed doing each others stuff...Vince's playing was excellent as usual, and Sting's voice was really strong and fit well in Vince's songs. Hope they do replays!!

That show was excellent, some of the best musicians you could find anywhere. I don't want to step on any toes, the Little Walter amps sound great, but I liked Vince's tele tone better when he had the Rivera amps, had more of a twang to it.
Paul sounded awesome thru the Little Walters. :eek:
