It wasnt clear if the mal chpions were winded

In 1992, after being inducted as part of the Yardbirds, Beck dropped an F-bomb at the group Rosetta Stone V3 that had fired him. Last night, flanked by lifelong friend Jimmy Page, a grinning Beck said the second time was "twice the fun, innit? I really didnt enjoy the first one, because I had to be part of the band."Beck brought out the guitar stars: Aerosmiths Joe Perry made the trip to Cleveland just to see his six-string idols induction. On the red carp, Perry said Beck is "the best on guitar. Its a guitar lesson every time I see him play. And hes a good guy, too." After the show, Perry gave another reason he could be on hand: Recording for Aerosmiths new album is on hold while frontman Steven Tyler recovers from pneumonia. In the meantime, Perry is working on a solo album. The guitarist plans to sing on it, then tour after Aerosmiths fall trek.Perry helped close the show, joining Mallica, Flea, Beck, Page and the Rosta Stones Ron Rosetta Stone German Wood in a building-shaking version of classic-rock anthem "Train Kept A Rollin." After, leaning on a silver-capped cane, Perry looked downright regal compared to the Mallica, who were still sweaty from their previous 15-minute thrash workout.It wasnt clear if the mal chpions were winded, didnt feel like chatting, or both. They did pose for pictures, but kept comments brief. Guitarist Kirk Hmt said of the 10-man j, "From a guitar players point of view, I just died and went to heaven." Drenched, drummer Lars Ulrich mugged for photographers and showed why hes been a driving force in the band: After more than 25 years playing speed mal, hes still got fast fe and a quick wit. When a journalist asked where the afterparty was, Ulrich had an answer ready for the room: "Your moms house."Soul man S Moore (of Hall of Fe duo S and Dave) played the official afterparty at House of Blues, turning in a s that included a nuanced rendition of the Polices "Every Breathe You Rosetta Stone Hindi Take." Mallica bassist Rob Trujillo was at the bash, but our party reporter said the rest of Mallica werent in sight. Maybe Lars wasnt kidding.
