#901063 Conan O’Brien didn’t mince words at the VH1 Save the Music Foundation’s 10th Anniversary gala Thursday night. “President Clinton spent many years learning how to play the saxophone and President Bush has spent many years learning how to play the radio,” he joked as the crowd cheered. The event, held in a colossal tent erected on the grounds of Lincoln Center, drew politicians such as New York’s mayor, Michael Bloomberg, and musicians including James Blount, Mya and Vanessa Carlton. Throughout the evening, headlining acts John Mayer, Jon Bon Jovi and Roger Waters all performed with a 60-piece orchestra comprised of Save The Music Foundation students from across the country. Honorees included former president Bill Clinton, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-New York), Mariah Carey and NAMM: The International Music Products Association.
