Rather than reaching for a Green Day hit or an Iron Maiden anthem, the pair paid tribute to one of glam rock's defining classics. Written by David Bowie and immortalized by Mott the Hoople in 1972, "All the Young Dudes" has long connected artists across genres and Thursday night's performance proved its legacy is still very much alive.
Backed by Armstrong's cover band side project, The Coverups, the performance felt less like a novelty and more like a celebration of the artists who shaped modern rock. Earlier in the evening, the group also tore through classics including Cheap Trick's "Hello There" and the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated."
Speaking to a local CBS affiliate after the performance, Dickinson joked that he had to dust off his memory before taking the stage. "We've performed with Green Day quite a lot of times, but we've been on separate stages in separate bands," he said. "I more or less remember the words." For one unforgettable song, those separate worlds finally came together, bringing punk, metal and glam rock fans along for the ride. Some rock crossovers you can see coming from a mile away. This wasn't one of them.
