debating picking up a cheap stub hub ticket for thurday night.
Like myself, I am sure you have been to many shows, and seen many bands.
This production of Quadrophenia, by Daltrey and Townshend..
Is EASILY one of the BEST concerts I have ever seen.
And I have seen a few bands in my lifetime.
Go to the show.
You wont regret it.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
I had no idea that Simon Townsend was such a good singer. He wasn't part of the band when I saw them over 20 years ago. But I enjoyed the hell out of hearing him sing in Montreal.

Simon is very talented and easily overlooked because of his famous brother. I would love to hear Pete and Simon sing together--when brothers harmonize, their voices sound great together.
caught the second half of the opening act. they were solid. enjoyed them alot
fuckin all state and the stairs of hell.
show started at slow.....acoustics do suck a nut :fp:
about 1/4 way in a scored a puff puff pass.
next chuck of show.......fuckin rocked.....for old dudes....and lets not kid ourselves.....they fuckin rocked.
really glad i went.
or for 50 bucks...not a bad seat. 5 rows up in the second section...4 seats from the left most portion of the seated section....looking straight at the front of the crowd line. solid
good times.
on the way out, met this guy who had to be 55ish.....said it his first time seeing them. we high fived.

Its a hell of a show, right?
A kick ass show!
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
they had the old drummer sing a song while the band played.....i was like wow. that was pretty cool
you were right about allstate, and maybe it's because of where i sat, but the sound was aweful. i'm guessing the ceiling with all the wood trusses plays a big part into it. UC is a way nicer venue. the whole stair thing sort of blew
it would rank behind radiohead st louis and pearl jam philly as the 3rd best show of the year.
i forgot to check for a merchandise booth on the way out......i would have picked up a tshirt...i'll have to check their website.
quite a few empty seats. the person i bought from had 4 and only was able to sell 2 at half price. took a bath on those.
so......you're saying there were a lot of old folks there? :?
If I had known then what I know now...

kept waiting for a PJ cover
same set list every night since the first couple shows where they were working out the kinks. (And I don't mean the Quad part which is obvious).
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
so......you're saying there were a lot of old folks there? :?

Taking my sister and brother in law to their first Who show in February. They are sixty-somethings.
If it makes you feel any better, I'm taking 3 of my sons to their first Who show in February and they will be 9, 11 and 13.
Starting 'em off right, I see.
I like both age groups getting a little Who. What cracks me up about taking my sister is her asking "Are you sure you don't mind going to another show? I know you've seen them before."

Well, my 5 year old started singing, "Take a bottle, Drink it down, pass it around" over and over again out of the blue the other day. :?
Proud papa.
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
I'll be seeing the Who this Saturday in Philly!! Can hardly wait! I first saw them in 1971 (yes, I am OLD! ), and then again in 1999. I am very excited about this concert! Anyone else going?
Opening act is like 35 minutes or so....worth checking out
Show ended at roughly 11
MSG: started around 8:30, definitely don't get there later than 8:30! Ended almost 11:00 as well. They played straight through pretty much. Don't think Townshend or Daltrey left the stage at all. MIND BLOWN!

You're lying. That makes no sense. You only need 1 depends, or what's the point?

But first, MSG with one of my brothers and Mohegan Sun with the wife....
