The Who was pretty good.

Apparently they were cut on NBC, so that explains why I didn't see it.

Still doesn't explain Radioheads absence Sad

But I guess they really wouldn't fit the whole 'Olympics' theme or whatever. I just love them too much though.

Oh yeah, and seriously NBC? WTF? Cut out "Muse, The Who, and Davie Ray of the Kinks" for a stupid show? So awful. So bad.

Apparently David Bowie, the Rolling Stones, Sex Pistols and Kate Bush were among the artists who turned down the opportunity to play at the ceremony.
