LITTLE ROCK - Top Clinton administration officials, both Presidents Bush, rock stars and ordinary admirers of Bill Clinton (news - web sites) turned out Thursday to pay homage to the former president at the opening of the Clinton Presidential Center.

An estimated 30,000 guests were on hand for the dedication of the $165 million glass-and-steel home of artifacts and documents gathered during Clinton's eight years in the White House.

Clinton, President Bush (news - web sites), and former presidents George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter took the stage together while the U.S. Air Force Concert Band played "Hail to the Chief." Their wives took the stage moments earlier.
