Eric Carr, Ace Frehley and Bob Kulick all received special tributes during the concert.

Fans at Kiss' Las Vegas weekend were treated to special previews of the band's upcoming documentary and avatar show.

Paul Stanley said he could picture his late bandmate looking down on the show - "from [planet] Jendell, probably."

The book will feature rare and never-before-seen photographs, as well as Van Halen's memories of six specific years in the band's career.

The show also included the homeland debuts of two other beloved '70s tracks.

The duo shares an early preview clip of their debut single, "Body Down."

Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings recently won back control of their famous band's name.

Adams also recalled how he learned not to try to match Cocker when it came to drinking.

Letterman emotionally referenced the famous "enjoy every sandwich" speech from Zevon's final appearance on his show.

Bad Company, Joe Cocker, Cyndi Lauper and Warren Zevon are among the artists being honored at this year's ceremony.
