Just re-watched on YT w/ headphones and it sounds even better, a great and passionate performance by EV. Also just noticed as the camera flips sides the little picture to the right of Ed and of course I recognise that guitar God and picture of PT as he's not only Ed's biggest musical hero but, also mine. The Who will always be my favorite band because of PT and PJ will always be #2 because of EV and I just love the fact that Eddie feels the same way and just know he made sure that picture was set-up so it would be visible while he performed! If anyone wants to share any memories of seeing these 2 perform live, PJ/EV covers of the WHO, famous photos of EV & members of the WHO please share. If anyone is going to post something negative about the WHO or PT just save it, there's enough crap going on in the world. Besides I will request that SEA/KAT delete's your nonsense. Be safe everyone😎🙏❤

My all-time favorite

GlowGirl · April 2020

I have been a huge Who fan since high school and have seen them numerous times. PT is one of my absolute favorites. In 1996 when they played a string of Quadrophenia shows at MSG I got a backstage pass through a long chain of events. One of the best nights of my life. I met EV that night as well since he was at the show and we all ended up in John Entwistle’s hotel room until 7:00am. The whole story is too long and amazing to go into here. But here are a few photos of my memorabilia from that night:

When I was young and brunette.

My signed ticket, a PT stage used pick, and my backstage laminate.

Ok, mind completely blown! Great pic of you and PT! I thought I had stories but, that is just amazing. I was at the HOB's Chicago late 90's and PT was doing a charity show for Merryville Academy and my wife and I were standing right up against the stage right side and out of nowhere PT introduces Ed and he is literally standing on top of us. It was a very memerable night! Btw saw that same Quadrophenia show w/ Billy Idol and Gary Glitter at United Center in Chicago.

Those Quadrophenia shows were great. A few years ago I saw the Quadrophenia show Pete did at the Metropolitan Opera House at Lincoln Center in NYC with the orchestra. No back stage pass that time. Took some crappy photos and got a cool poster.

W/ Alfie Boe...It never came to Chicago...The 2013 tour of Quadrophenia was also very good even though John was sorely missed!

Blonde Eddie

PJ at VH1 Rock Honors The Who at Pauley Pavillion on UCLA campus. Keeping up the Quad theme, might as well as EV has stated many times over the years it's the album that saved his life when he was a teenager. LROM/The Real Me(Jeff's bass while not JE who is, is pretty damn nasty!)

A most iconic poster and a great night celebrating the music of PT for a great cause Teenage Cancer which, the man himself Roger Daltrey has been it's patron saint for the last 20 years. Btw I was sitting in the 5th row and directly to my left was former Cub manager Joe Madden and to my right maybe 5 seats Mr. Geddy Lee.

Another version

A little music from a very memerable night

👍So glad you are enjoying this so far, just scratching the surface of the many collaborations between these 2 titans. It really is The Punk Meets The Godfather playing itself out in real life over the last 25 years.

Awesome video. But the blonde hair - not so much.

Are you mad at the blonde hair as well, or my lack of love for the blonde hair
