Penny said: "Love being at an open air sound check venue."
Former bandmates Rod Stewart and Jeff Beck took the stage together last night at the Hollywood Bowl. The occasion marked their first official performance together in roughly 10 years.
The two didn’t play the entire show together. After a main set by Stewart, which including four acoustic numbers and a rendition of Fleetwood Mac‘s “Go Your Own Way” performed by his band, Beck came on for the encore. It was comprised of “Blues Deluxe,” “I Ain’t Superstitious,” “People Get Ready,” “Rock My Plimsoul” and “Morning Dew.” You can see videos of all of those and “Tonight’s the Night (Gonna Be Alright),” plus our exclusive photos from the night, below.
Stewart and Beck first teamed-up for the latter’s self-titled band in 1967. Their first show in the U.S. took place in 1968, when the Jeff Beck Group opened for the Grateful Dead at the Fillmore East.
“The songs flowed out so fast, it was incredible,” Beck recalled during a 1989 conversation with the Chicago Tribune. “I would come up with the music and the grooves, and Rod would return later with these great lyrics. Since the band was basically a three-piece, there was no room for messing about. We had to hit where it hurt all the time or the whole thing would have fallen apart.”
Two albums would follow, 1968’s Truth and 1969’s Beck-Ola, before Stewart and bassist Ron Wood left and joined forces with the three remaining Small Faces to become the Faces, with Stewart launching a parallel solo career. Stewart and Beck later collaborated on Stewart’s 1984 single “Infatuation,” and a cover of the Impressions’ classic R&B track “People Get Ready,” released on Beck’s 1985 LP Flash.
Beck inducted Stewart into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994, however the latter musician was unable to attend the ceremony due to the Northridge Earthquake.
The two did share the stage together in 2009 when Stewart made a surprise appearance at Beck’s concert in Los Angeles. The former bandmates played two songs together that night, “People Get Ready” and Willie Dixon’s ‘I Ain’t Superstitious.”
The musicians had previously planned reunion tours together, though they never came to fruition due to what Stewart described as “a serious clash of egos.”
Whether the two will share the stage again soon remains a mystery. The Hollywood Bowl concert was a one-off gig, with neither artist giving indication that further performances together are planned. In the meantime, Stewart will spend next week performing several dates at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas before touring overseas.

Sir Rod Stewart looked happy and healthy as he was pictured for the first time since admitting he's beaten prostate cancer after secretly battling the disease for three years.
The Maggie May singer, 74, appeared typically sharp for his casual outing as he embarked on a shopping trip to the Glen Market in Los Angeles, California, on Wednesday afternoon.
Iconic rocker Rod was diagnosed with prostate cancer - the growth of tumours in the gland - in 2016, and has since revealed he was given the all-clear as the disease was caught in the early stages during a routine checkup.

Putting on a sharp display, the Hot Legs hitmaker sported a relaxed white skirt, teamed with a pair of sleek cream chinos.
The musician rounded off his look with a classic white trilby and funky trainers as he treated himself to some retail therapy, before enjoying some lunch in the Californian city.
Earlier this month, Rod revealed his cancer plight during a fundraising evening with former Faces bandmates Kenney Jones and Ronnie Wood, The Mirror reported.
"Two years ago I was diagnosed with prostrate cancer" he said
Sir Rod added: 'No one knows this, but I thought this was about time I told everybody. I'm in the clear, now, simply because I caught it early. I have so many tests.'
Prostate cancer is the growth of tumours in the prostate gland.
Only men have a prostate, which is a walnut-sized gland between the rectum and the penis which creates a fluid to be mixed with sperm to create semen.
Rod, who previously had a cancerous growth removed from his thyroid, urged the audience to 'go to the doctor', telling them he tried to 'keep a smile on his face' throughout the ordeal.
Rod Stewart will entertain at the Boca Raton Regional Hospital Ball!
The Boca Hospital Foundation has done it again—the gala with the best entertainment every year has outdone itself: This year it is bringing Rod Stewart to Boca.
Make that Sir Rod Stewart, knighted in 2016 for his work in music and charities, but the same Rod Stewart we have loved since the 1960s and 1970s, starting with the Jeff Beck Group and Faces and launching a parallel solo career in 1969. In 1994, Stewart staged the largest free rock concert in history when he performed in front of 3.5 million people in Rio de Janeiro.
In the early 2000s, he released a series of successful albums interpreting the Great American Songbook, in a career that has evolved as he has aged, with steady success and impressive accolades and awards.
These include: six consecutive number one albums in the UK, 16 top ten singles in the US, a 2008 ranking by Billboard magazine as the 17th most successful artist on the “Billboard Hot 100 All-Time Top Artists; number 33 in Q Magazine’s list of the Top 100 Greatest Singers of all time and #59 on Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Singers of all time.

The Boca Raton Regional Hospital Ball, always a sell-out, is slated for Saturday, Feb. 22, 2020 at the Boca Raton Resort & Club.

Rod Stewart is urging men to get their prostates checked, after he beat cancer - because it was caught early
Sir Rod Stewart has urged men to have their prostates checked after revealing he won his own battle with cancer because it was caught early.
The 74-year-old pop legend told how he was diagnosed with the disease in February 2016 during a routine checkup and secretly fought it for three years.
Sir Rod opened up about his prostate cancer during a fundraising evening with former Faces bandmates Kenney Jones and Ronnie Wood.
Experts said revealing his battle could help save other lives as early stages of the cancer are symptomless and only a test can detect it.
Sir Rod, famed for his sense of humour, even cracked a joke about going public.
He said he warned wife Penny Lancaster he was going to use the evening to “come out”.
The 48-year-old Loose Women star replied: “Tonight would be a nice night to come out of the closet.”
The singer said: “No, it’s not what you think. Two years ago I was diagnosed with prostate cancer.”
Ronnie, who has battled lung cancer, put his hand on his pal’s shoulder as the audience of 500 reacted in shock.
Sir Rod added: “No one knows this, but I thought this was about time I told everybody. I’m in the clear, now, simply because I caught it early. I have so many tests.”
Addressing men, he pleaded: “Guys, you’ve got to really go to the doctor.”
And he had the crowd in stitches when he said: “Finger up the bum, no harm done.”
Dad-of-eight Sir Rod told how he kept positive throughout his treatment for the disease, that kills 11,000 men every year.
He said: “If you’re positive, and you work through it and you keep a smile on your face… I’ve worked for two years and I’ve just been happy, and the good Lord looked after me.”
He then shared a hug with Ronnie, 72, to an emotional round of applause. The Rolling Stones guitarist told him: “Somebody up there likes us, Rod.”
Sir Rod, who was told he was in remission in July, then launched into an enthusiastic rendition of Maggie May and performed a floss dance as the crowd went wild.
The charity event to raise money for the Prostate Project and European Tour Foundation was at the Wentworth Club in Surrey.
Kenney’s wife Jayne and Ronnie’s wife Sally were also there with Penny.
Prostate Project president Tim Sharp said: “Experience has shown what a big difference high profile celebrities can make when they ‘come out’ about their cancer.

Penny Lancaster, 48, has confessed that she contemplates losing her husband Rod Stewart, 74, due to their 26 year age gap.
Speaking on Loose Women, the model discussed how she thinks about her life when she's his age and how the rocker - who would then be 100 - may be gone.
She said: 'Rod’s in his 70s and we have a huge family base at home. My life is based on the family. On occasion I think, when I’m Rod’s age, I won’t have my husband and the children will be grown up and gone and I have to prepare.'
Penny was feeling emotional as she discussed her husband and how they deal with their age gap, as she must face what her life will be like in the segment entitled: 'Do you fear growing old alone?'
Prior to the appearance on the show, Penny previously said she always 'shows kindness' to her husband's former partners, after the couple reunited with three of his exes at daughter Kimberly's birthday bash.
Speaking last month, she admitted she always knew her husband came with the baggage of his exes when they met, but they've made the relationship 'work.'
It comes after Rod reunited with exes Alana Stewart, Kelly Emberg and Rachel Hunter for a family snap as they celebrated Kimberly's 40th birthday.
When asked about her relationship with Rod's exes Penny explained: 'When I met Rod, I realised it wasn’t just us, it was the children, the ex-wives. I had to show that I was genuine, show kindness, and it works.'
Last month, Rod reunited with three of his exes as they celebrated Kimberly's birthday in Los Angeles. In the picture was Rod's first wife actress Alana Stewart, 74, who was Sir Rod's first wife from 1979 to 1984.
During their five-year marriage she had daughter Kimberly, and a son Sean, 38, who is followed in his father's footsteps as a musician.
Rod's former girlfriend, model Kelly Emberg, 60, who he dated from 1983 to 1990, was in shot. The couple share daughter Ruby, 32, who has also followed her father into the music industry.
Sadly, divorce happens.
In fact, it happens so often that there is one every 36 seconds in America.
But for Rod Stewart and Penny Lancaster, their relationship with his exes has never been an issue.
Speaking on ITV's Lorraine, the 48-year-old former model revealed she has a good relationship with all of Rod's ex-wives.
Penny admitted she knew Rod came with baggage when she met him so she has always tried to "show kindness" to his exes, including his former spouses Alana Stewart and Rachel Hunter and ex-partner Kelly Emberg.
"When I met Rod, I realised it wasn't just us, it was the children, the ex-wives. I had to show that I was genuine, show kindness, and it works."
The group recently met up in Los Angeles for the 40th birthday of Kimberly and the 74-year-old rocker went viral after posing with his exes for one awesome blended family photo.
Sharing a couple of pictures to Instagram, the legendary British musician could be seen posing alongside his first wife, actress Alana (1979–1984), his ex-girlfriend, model Kelly (1983–1990), his second wife, model Rachel (1990–2006) and his third and current wife, model Penny, who he married in 2007.
Meanwhile, Rod admitted he deeply regrets the way he used to break off relationships in his earlier days because it wasn't until Rachel walked out on him that he understood how devastating heartbreak could be.
He said: "I haven't treated women badly but I'm not proud of the way I broke up relationships. I was a real coward.
"It wasn't like Phil Collins. I didn't send an email but I've left a lot of broken hearts. I've apologised or at least tried to since.
"When Rachel left me, I didn't have the tools to cope with a break-up. I went to pieces. It was terrible. If ever karma got me back, it was then.
"The other day, one of my boys had his heart broken and I said, 'Well, it's just as well it happened now because it happened to daddy late in life and I didn't have the hammer and nails and drill to deal with it'. You can't go over it, under it, round it. One of my daughters is in the same position right now having broken up with somebody. I told her: 'You've just gotta be brave, nothing lasts forever.' "
Rod is a season ticket holder at Celtic and when he’s not on tour you will see the singer at the game in the stands with his son.
The singer can’t go one gig without shouting Celtic, showing Celtic goals and singing the song Grace which he recorded after hearing Celtic fans singing the Irish love song.
Celtic out thought their Glasgow rivals today and made sure they came away with the victory by being clinical up top and resolute at the back.
Goals from Edouard and Hayes made it a beautiful Sunday for everyone with a Celtic affiliation.
The bhoys go into the international break at the top of the table.
