Ed often talks of the bond between PJ and the Who after the Roskilde incident and what happened to the Who here 35 years ago. I went down last year and will go tomorrow again to pay tribute and my respects. Thanks for reading.

    I couldn't believe there wasn't a plaque or anything when I went to the show in Oct. Its just so sad.

    Wow, I'm a huge Who fan and didn't realize that was the date, unfortunately that date holds a much more personal loss for me and that's what I thought about yesterday. I'll take a moment and pay my respect for those lost in Cincy.

    I can't believe I never connected the date to the Who tragedy and my personal loss. The personal loss is PJ related, but I can't relive that right now.

    May they all RIP.
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go

    Such senseless deaths. I'm sure after that day everyone hoped it would never be repeated. Then we had Roskilde. All we can do is hope once more that no future concerts will turn from being the things of dreams to becoming terrible nightmares
