Sweet....

yawn.....
senior citizens reliving the good ole days. you're better off cranking some live Who when they were young and on drugs.
Spend your $$ on going to see some new bands, kids who are inspired and creative and in their prime.
I've always told my friends when Bob Marley, the Ramones and the Clash where playing in clubs, they would be in some concert hall watching the Beatles

The Who sucked when I saw them 20 years ago.If they were past their prime then....Hope I don't miss Boris

This is going to be a tough call for me. I got mixed feelings on going to see this. Quadrophenia is my all time favorite rock album.
Paul & Kevin going?

Raider Ronnie 07-19-2012 09:27 PM

Not much of a Who concert with only 2 alive and throw in the fact they are OLD !
The Ox (John Entwistle) was the real talent of the band.

I don't know...Roger Waters did a pretty impressive Job with the Recent "The Wall" Tour...and he's pretty old...(older than Townsend) and is only 1 member of Pink Floyd

Slingah 09-29-2012 03:46 PM

I'm going. Wife paid. No brainer...:uhuh:

Neil Young w/ Crazy Horse on Saturday was identical to when I saw them 20 years ago. Some old people still rock.

Thanks Paul.
It was okay. Pretty much what I had expected. Sound was okay and the stage/visuals were fantastic. There were a few obvious mistakes and Roger was struggling at times. Over all the music was great but in my opinion it's a long piece of music to pull off live played in it's entirety.
It was nice to see the tributes to Keith and John and how they included them into the show.
The "hits" at the end were the highlight of the show and it was pretty cool when the crowd sang along to "Behind Blue Eyes".
Pete and Roger finished the show with just the two of them, Pete on acoustic guitar and Roger singing something about sharing a cup of tea. The sentiment was nice and it felt as if they were saying goodbye as the Who. My guess is they were.
