Sure, there will be plenty of tough times and hard decisions to come, but at least for today, President-elect Barack Obama did what teenagers everywhere dream about should they become president: Throw an awesome party with totally rocking bands.
"We Are One: A Celebration at the Lincoln Memorial" featured a dream roster of performers: Beyoncé, U2, Stevie Wonder, Sheryl Crow, Will.i.am, Bruce Springsteen, Garth Brooks, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and many more. Tom Hanks, Samuel L. Jackson, Jamie Foxx, Jack Black and Denzel Washington also made appearances to read and make short presentations.
And the best thing? The guy isn't even president yet. Imagine what that party is gonna be like. Check out all the stars at We Are One and other inaugural gatherings in our Barack Stars: Inaugurating Obama Gallery.
