I guess I give it a C.  Maybe C+ but I don't know if I can say it was above average.

Multiple awkward moments.  Like when Fergie revealed to the world her musical range is a good octave lower than Brett Michaels and she was barely noticed by Slash.   

Is Slash even alive?  He seemed like a robot.   

I just expected more. Very good start though. Nice to see they aren't too cool for other musicians.

I thought it was absolutely terrible.  I never liked Fergie, but man those guys have no talent.  It was pretty much a cross between bad karaoke and "Tron"

Usher was the only good part. My girlfriend spent the whole time trying to figure what movie it looked like. Finally I told her she meant Tron.

Fergie is the "Butterface" of performers, but instead of butterface, its "buttervoice".

As in "yeah she looks great in the videos...but her voice...."

I wish I didn't  have to say this, but worse than last year?

Granted those guys are like 100. At least they had an excuse.

It was awful.

If Axel Rose was dead, he'd be spinning in his grave after that rendition of "Sweet Child of Mine".

lol you hear her voice though? Me might go by Fergie now, but I imagine 15-20 years ago it was Melvin.

If we're grading on a curve, I give them an A+ compared to Christina.

I'm not willing to set the bar that low. They're very lucky they followed her act.

Glee suddenly looks a lot better

My son summed it up best when he walked in the room and said "Boy they sound terrible live". I really like listening to them on the radio, but they are horrible live. It's amazing what a recording studio can do for people. That being said, they know how to entertain and put on a show which is why they were out there. I thought Usher was mediocre at best as well. Slash... He at least sounded normal. She killed that song though, and not in a good way.
