    He definitely had way more aggression last night than the first two nights. He also may have had more lyric flubs last night than the first two nights combined. Hey, I'm not complaining. Last night's show was outstanding. Just an observation, not that we track those flubs as an official stat or anything.

    Was he doing windmills, too? Looks like he might have been at the very beginning of the video but it's hard to tell.

    Full Townshend indeed.

    Think he wasn't too impressed with the crowd. Had enough smashed the guitar like WTF threw his hands up!
    Next time Ed wants you to sing, sing.

    I was cracking up at the end of Baba (Mike and Jeff switched bass and guitars for that), when Jeff faked smashing Mike's Les Paul. He did it like twice because Mike did not see it the first time, Mikes eyes were huge when he did see Jeff fake it.

    Ed was just pissed because the only clean shirt he could find that night was his old little league jersey.
