Wow - what a concert! :band:

Post by Peggy »

I won four tickets to The Who and went and saw them with some friends last night. I'd seen them way back in '89 and they rocked the house just as much yesterday as 17 years ago! Roger Daltry and Pete Townsend are the only two originals left in the band and they did two very touching acoustic duets. Those guys are still so amazing - it's hard to believe they are the ages they are and can still perform so well.

I brought ear plugs, but didn't have to use them. The sound was so much better than when I saw U2 not long ago!

Awesome. One of my favorite albums is the Who - Live at Leeds. Back in the day, they put so much energy into their music, at a time when "top 40" had no guts.

He celebrated his 80th birthday---he was looking so handsome---sauve and just melted ya heart!!!!
And then he sang and I even think IMUS had tears welling up in is eyez---

He made a CD, singing duets with many famous singers--
They werent dubbed in--Tony traveled to where all the singers were and made these live duet recordings---

And for Lou's special day, Deb has bought him this as his present--

Live at Leeds!
I can't imagine. It must have been amazing. (We went to Leeds in Oct last year as tourists.)

You're so Lucky, Peggy.
