Tomorrow marks the 40th Anniversary of The Who tragedy that occurred here in Cincinnati.  The incident that happened at Roksilde no doubt brought these 2 bands closer together through tragedy.  I was at Riverfront Coliseum in 2000, the place where the tragedy took place, and saw Eddie come out 45 minutes prior to the opening band that night to sing "The Kids are Alright".  It was a moving moment and one I will never forget.  I post about this almost every year here and link to the article, tomorrow here in Cincinnati there will be an hour long documentary about the event then what everyone here is hoping for, an announcement that The Who will make there first return to the Queen City since this happened.  
Thanks for reading, and prayers to the victims and Families of Roksilde and Cincinnati.
