The three-hour show ended with what Kurt Loder called "a historical VMA moment," Guns 'N Roses performing their 1980s hit "Welcome to the Jungle," proving--just in case Bruce didn't manage to--that ole time rock 'n' roll is here to stay.

They then introduced Sheryl Crow, who performed her song, "Safe and Sound," while images of the city -- the people, the subways, the skyscrapers, the NYPD -- were displayed on screens behind her.
