The 'orrible Who at KC Stadium
I'm still buzzin' after last night's cracking performance. The Who were 'banging'. I really wasn't expecting so much energy, commitment and enthusiasm from a couple of geezers in their 60's.
They played a lot of their old stuff, as well as a few tracks I wasn't familiar with, off their new cd. Highlights for me were Baba O'Reilly, Won't Get Fooled Again', The extended My Generation, and excerpts from Tommy.
There was an air of 'Woodstock' at one point in the proceedings. A young female fan removed all her upper garments and proceeded to jiggle about a bit, much to the astonishment of onlookers and her embarrassed boyfriend. Needless to say, this didn't detract from my enjoyment.
Anyway, before I disappear and purchase the DVD and CD of last nights performance from www.themusic.com, thought I'd point you in the direction of a fellow Hull blogger, Kev Brown and his review of the gig. Incidentally, Kev's posted some images as well that give you a good idea of what it was like in the pits.

How's it going young man?
I saw them awhile back here in the States and could not believe the energy either. They blew the house down that night!
Have a great week!
