    I'm assuming you're just stating that Keith was the man because he was the man - that you didn't actually see him in '82, because he died in '78. :D

    The Who are hands down the best live band ever.

    EVER.

    I can't wait to hear these tour dates.
    im well aware of when Keith died.......
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    Look at the gap between Toronto and Vancouver. I'm sure there are many dates to be added in there.

    Fuckin' A.

    I'm all over London and Toronto like a fat kid on several boxes of very large Smarties. Just wish I could afford a fan club membership; I feel like splurging on front row seats.

    Seen 'em three times, once in 1997 and twice in 2002. They're the only band I'd put on par with Pearl Jam in a live setting. Frick, I'm excited. :D

    remember to take into consideration it'll probably be the same show.

    Wow ... very pricey. Plus the Philly show may go fast (which is the only one I'd go to.) We'll see how it goes on Monday then.

    do they play the same set every night?

    Pete just said they may do some special shows...Tommy special shows and or Quadrophenia!

    they announced it here on the radio in Philly

    can you tell I'm excited? :D

    they normally do the same set just about every night, so multiple shows is not necessarily a good idea unless you're ok with that

    i've seen them do both Quadrophenia and Tommy - a couple of times - if you get one of those shows - you will be very lucky - they kick ass
  • Red LukinRed Lukin Posts: 2,994
    Anyone just watch that hour long press conference? Pretty cool stuff. They played some songs, talked about the tour and such.

    It's been 25 years...wow
  • kdpjamkdpjam Posts: 2,303
    i did! it was very cool. i am bummed they won't come to cincinnati, but as my brother asked, why would they?

    Supposedly they'll be mixing it up more often this time 'round...but who knows? Saw them twice in 2002 and heard the identical set both times (apart from a snippet of "I'm One" at the MSG show). Didn't matter--second show was even better. Then again, I'm a lunatic like that.

    I just put myself in more horrible debt. The good news is that I've got tickets for London centre floors row 13! I'm still shaking.

    That's awesome. :p

    Is there a general London presale? I can't afford a fan club membership, but I'll shed blood to see this show. Not row 13, mind, but in the building would be nice. ;)

    I just got presale info from ticket master...those tickets are expensive..i guess im not a big fan but i wouldnt pay those prices...lawn seats are over $50 bucks...plus you have to pay somekind of membership fee to be in the club so you can participate in presale.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    libragirl, trust in your man and trust in me - they are worth every single penny

    some radio stations are having pre-sales as well - you just have to be a member of their workforce

    that's what I'm doing

    I was going to pay the $60 for the membership so that I could get the tickets before hand, but then I got an email saying I can get them tomorrow morning at 10 - good enough for me
