Gosh I remember recording this concert on VHS!! I am so happy I found this on RU-vid. RU-vid is such a wonderful time capsule. Thank you Leonardo for uploading the video.
From Monterey Pop to Woodstock, the Isle of Wight to Live Aid, Kampuchea to the Concert for New York, every landmark concert event but one was owned and eclipsed by The Who. How on earth did George Harrison leave them off his Concert for Bangladesh dance card?!
The WHO at their best since Moonie passed, great set and Kudos to the Sound team, they absolutely nailed it...best band on the night, Zac Starkey killing it on drums....so good.....wow!!. Some incredible Bass rifts from Entwistle. That younger kids is an English Rock Band from 60s 70s era..throw in the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin etc, you get the idea of the British Invasion and the fact 50 years later this band shows how its done...brilliant Meanwhile backstage next band on packing up and going home...cant follow that Lads!!!!!!!
I'm a Brit, the sept 11th attacks on America, I shit you not made me join the British army, regardless of internet banter/bullshit we Brits love our cousins over the water ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such dramatic impatience in the lead up to "WE WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN"...the ultimate catharsis...and "WANTING" to put ANTI-CHRISTIAN "MUSLIMS" the world over back in their rightful place...NEVER Forgive them for what they did to the USA and its inherent sense of national security.
From the moment Pete did the longest ever windup for a windmill for the first verse of Who Are You, you knew they meant business and they never let up.
an amazing performance by a bunch of old guys.. except zak. he was still pretty young. (his playing was great) very emotional performance. probably there last great live perfotmance. tinley park in 2000 was good too.
I watched this live on tv that night. Everyone was great but the 2 best acts that night were Billy Joel and The Who hands down no question about it and this really did lift everyone's spirits in the tri state area at least for a little while. It basically snapped everyone out of the shock we were in and recharged the batteries so we could at the very least start functioning again. And I think The Who should've been the closing act because, how do you follow this performance?
