Jaimoe Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Unless you have never seen Roger and Pete live, then go to the show - Pete continually reinvents his guitar sound and style in fascinating and unpredictable ways. However, Roger's voice will start to shred 30-40 minutes into the set, leaving only one original Who member left to fill out the authentic sound.

Well, this is a very tough topic for me since Pete is my favourite guitarist/songwriter of all time. I'd pay to see Pete live, but this severely watered-down "Who" product ain't worth the big dough. Even Keith Moon's ghost would think twice about shelling out the money when it could be better used for some more brandy. Although I'm sure Townshend and I'm hoping Zak Starkey, will still rip your face off regardless of your seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimoe Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Focus on Pete and you will enjoy the show thoroughly. Townshend remains one of the most potent guitar forces in rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bald guy in a blanket Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Jaimoe,I don't know.I saw this line-up in 2002 and it blew my mind.The only RAWK show left on earth.Worth 200 bucks...?I dunno,Worth $100...for sure.Jef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I reviewed the show in 2002 and heaped praise on the band and the ACC show. I think Pete alone is worth $100. However, I wouldn't pay top dollar, at least not any more.Hey, they will put on a killer show, it just depends if the line-up matters to you or not.

Jaimoe Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Keith gave a very young Zak a Pearl (I think it was a Pearl, but it might have been a Premier) drum kit. Moon spent far too many days over a Ringo's place, although Zak ended up being more influenced by Moon than his father.

phorbesie Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Unless you have never seen Roger and Pete live, then go to the show - confused by this wording...i have not seen them, so are you recommending to go check them out (for the first time)? the words suggest the opposite!

But it'll never be the same with this "watered-down" line-up - and I wouldn't pay top dollar either. For comparison, pull out Live At Leeds or even some latter day Entwistle/Who concerts like the 911 DVD tribute. I'd never pay to see Roger alone. He's the weakest member of The Who historically (original members). Edited July 13, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 i saw them in 99 on the Quadrophenia tour, and they were great. i saw them again in 2002, and they were just as good, just minus one key member. i'm sure they'll be great again....i'll be trying to get a ticket to the London show...smaller venue.

Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 I'd have to give this a pass - a) the tix are just too far out of range for one band, and I'd hold out to see Townshend play alone, expecting that he'd shake up a bit more how he does the tunes; I'd be afraid that as the Who they'd want to stick closer to the recipe. But I certainly agree with you, Jaimoe, that Townshend's playing is still something very much worth paying close attention to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 I'll tell ya; Leanne and I went and saw them the last time they were through. Neither of us were expecting much and yet they absolutely blew the roof off the ACC. They rocked with an intensity that I've never seen on stage before. This will be a great show; there is no question in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Kidnap Townshend and take him out west; the rest will follow . I should probably post this over in the Youtube forum, but it really does belong here - check out how both Entwistle and Townshend just tear this one up at the end: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
