Sunday night at CMAC in Canandaigua (Rochester, NY area).
I've always been a fan and saw them at their "farewell tour" in 1982 but this show was something special.
At 70, these guys rocked for over 2 hours and sounded great. I can now die a happy man. LOL

I tell it like it is, if you want smoke blown up your ass or something sugar coated. I suggest you get a Hooker and a powdered donut.

I am a huge Who fan
I saw them in 1989 when John "thunderfingers" was still with them.
More of a fan of their 1968-1978 era, my favorite album was always Live at Leeds,

Recorded in 1970 It showcases a band at the top of their game in a one of the most powerful live performances by any band ever, which was derived from nearly two years of constant touring..playing everything from bars to opera houses, including Woodstock. They would produce better quality studio albums for sure, but I think they were never that tight, punchy and edgy again live, I probably have hearing damage listening to it over and over with headphones.Originally Posted by cryoung

Not sure if I qualify as a "fan", but I always liked them, and think that their songs aged much better than most other bands from around the same time.
I saw them on their Quadrophenia reunion tour. Since you can look up everything on the internets, I found that it must have been on May 16, 1997. I greatly enjoyed the show, they were excellent.
The funny thing is that I thought they were old at the time, and I figured it might be one of the last opportunities to see them. And now they're still playing almost exactly 20 years later!?!

This is that guy from England who beat me 45 years ago in a Pinball-Game.....i tell you he is a Pinball-Wizzard.
6 "3" 260 lbs. mid 50....still love this sport.... go and do something for yourself, not for others....it´s your life, your health, you only get one, take care, and when you see results the fun to work out will be greater with time....but it´s all about small steps...fast results you can loose fast...steady and slow results last much longer. So take your Sport bag, and enjoy your workouts, and the Feeling when you finished a good workout.
