The heart pounding event began with world renowned mash-up master Z-Trip who started off the night and warmed up the crowd with his trademark sounds.

First up was an all-out celebration of DJ Hero ^® 2’s incredible line-up of world-class artists, featuring live sets from all-star DJ’s and in-game playable characters, Grammy ^® winner and multi-platinum selling artist David Guetta, along with progressive house producer Deadmau5 - part of dance music’s elite. Storming the stage with a high octane mini-set, global superstar Usher, complete with live band and dancers, brought down the house with a performance of his current #1 hit “OMG,” with a current audience reach of over 160 million, along with chart-topping singles “Caught Up” and “Yeah.”

The event brought skate acrobatics to life with a live Tony Hawk skate demo accompanied by Z-Trip who was once again at the head of the turntables. Hawk’s performance went BIG, with larger than life jumps, huge grabs and over-the-top tricks in the spirit of Tony Hawk ^TM : SHRED, the next game in the venerable skating franchise.

A heart-pounding collaborative performance of Queen’s classic anthem, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” featured on Guitar Hero ^® : Warrior of Rock’s 93 track on-disc set list, was lead by artist Maynard James Keenan and over 200 of Los Angeles’s most awe-inspiring gospel singers accompanied by a 75-piece orchestra. To celebrate their incorporation into Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, Jane’s Addiction played seminal hits “Mountain Song” and “Been Caught Stealing” and Soundgarden performed an orchestrated version of their classic hit “Black Hole Sun.”

The exciting line-up continued as Grammy Award winning recording artist, producer and musician Pharrell Williams and his band N.E.R.D. performed the upbeat dance jams “Hot-N-Fun” and “Lapdance” to celebrate Pharrell’s contribution to the soundtrack of True Crime ^® : Hong Kong. In addition, brand new recording artist and industry up-and-comer Rhea debuted “My Motorcycle,” which will be featured in the game with a sultry performance choreographed by JaQuel Knight.

Innovative and ground-breaking Grammy ^® Award winning performer EMINEM ignited the crowd as he closed the all-star event in celebration of the year’s most anticipated title Call of Duty ^® : Black Ops and was joined on stage by drumming legend Travis Barker. Eminem’s raw live performance of tracks included songs such as “Lose Yourself,” his newest hit single “Not Afraid” and the world premiere of “Won’t Back Down” from his upcoming album Recovery scheduled for release on 21st June.
