The Who Recap

Thursday's The Who concert absolutely kicked ass. The show, the seats, the company, and the band all rocked. Despite the fact that these men are in their 60's, they were able to jam out some classics and new tunes, while belting out tunes for about 2 hours. Pete Townsend is a guitar god, who takes advantage of his few opportunities to be the lead singer. There is really no one like him.

Here is the set list.


I Can't Explain
The Seeker
Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere
Fragments
Who Are You
Behind Blue Eyes
Real Good Looking Boy
Six selections from the mini-opera Wire and Glass:
1) Sound Round;
2) Pick Up the Peace;
3) Endless Wire;
4) We Got a Hit;
5) They Made My Dream Come True;
6) Mirror Door

Baba O'Riley
Eminence Front
Man in a Purple Dress
Black Widow's Eyes
You Better You Bet
My Generation/Cry If You Want
Won't Get Fooled Again
