' AXS TV was a big part of our lives for the past two years while we shot 'Real Money' and we are so pleased to have them onboard as the exclusive home for Eddie's memorable tribute event,' said Laurie Money, Eddie's wife of 30-plus years. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak also took the stage, regaling the crowd with anecdotes from Eddie's set at the historic US Festival in 1982. The tribute also featured a collection of moving video tributes from world-class artists Huey Lewis, Joan Jett, Steve Miller, LOVERBOY, BOSTON and Dennis DeYoung, as well as funnyman Kevin James who fondly recalled Eddie's performance at his wedding and shared rare footage from the special day. Additionally, there were heartfelt renditions of 'Baby Hold On' and 'Wanna Go Back' by Eddie's children Jesse, Dez and Julian Money who made their dad proud as they commanded the stage with one of the night's most memorable moments. The concert included powerhouse performances of Eddie's classic hits such as 'Shakin'' by Sammy Hagar, 'Save A Little Room' by John Waite, 'Think I'm In Love' by Kevin Cronin and Dave Amato, and an acoustic performance of 'Baby Hold On' by James Hetfield ( METALLICA). Originally filmed live on February 20 at The Canyon at The Saban in Beverly Hills, the evening features unforgettable appearances and performances by Eddie's family and fellow music legends. Hosted by Eddie's good friend, comedian and award-winning actor Louie Anderson, the two-hour 'Eddie Money Tribute Concert' is a heartfelt celebration of the man whose trademark vocals fueled chart-topping favorites such as 'Shakin'', 'Take Me Home Tonight', 'Think I'm in Love', 'Two Tickets To Paradise' and 'Baby Hold On', among many others, and provided the soundtrack for a generation of music lovers. The concert was the first public recognition honoring Eddie since his passing on September 13, 2019, with proceeds of the event benefiting MusiCares and the USC Eddie Money Cancer Research Fund.
