"Older guy shows off his musical talent to get the attention of an attractive young woman ...". Maybe this is why humans invented music 500,000 years ago.

An interesting line in that song that I'd never noticed before ... "Your hair is gold and mine is grey". Townshend was only about 22 years old when he wrote that song. For whatever reason, he seems to have been obsessed with old age from a very young age. "Hope I die before I get old".

Absolutely great! In an alternate universe in which Pete had never met Roger, John and Keith he would still have been one of the greatest songwriters/singers/guitarists ever. (Also: That young woman is lovely.)

Townshend has a damn good singing voice. Roger Daltry was/is a great singer, but The Who would have been almost as good as a trio.

He does this great intro for "The Sea Refuses No River" and then they don't play it?

In my now long life, with so much music behind us, I've always come back to Pete as my North Star. Jim, the kid across the street was a year older than me, and had parents that worked all day. They had one of those big wood console stereos and jimmy would drag it out to their front porch and crank it up. This was early summer, 1970. I was but 15. An empty vessel. He put on the just released Live at Leeds. A young man ain't got nuthin' in the world these days indeed. We listened over and over, closely examining those papers and photos and poster that came with the album. Ears were tuned to a new frequency, a new note. Distortion, somehow pure in its wildness, fundamentally changed us. Live at Leeds was like nothing else, then or since. But you know that. Arriving far into the future, we have accumulated gifts from Pete for well over 50 years. So many songs and stories. And so many people he introduced us to; Mary Anne, Ray High and Rastus, Captain Walker and his brother Ernie, the Acid Queen and the Hawker, Ace Face and Jimmy and The Godfather, the Seeker, Lilly and her pictures, Mr. Davidson who never rang, Happy Jack on the Isle of Man, and Sally who will take your hand, the Slip Kid, the brothers that got tattoos, people that seem so obsessed with the morning, Ivor the engine driver, Jeanie who wouldn't wear slit skirts and the kids that were alright, and that guy that won't take under 100 English Pounds for that bus. Pete has always given us more than he received. The best we ever had. Thank You.

Not exactly a strong opener, is it ? It's not even warming up.... No wonder the reactions were rather lukewarm. Fortunately, appearances can be deceiving, and the show grew better and better, although sometimes also a bit over the top, too many things happening, too much talent on one stage, all wanting to make a solid statement... I prefer by far the studio version of Give Blood for example, even if it is impressive to see Simon Phillips being Simon Phillips, David Gilmour super cool as ever, the fantastic back ground singers etc. But on top of that horns etc.... Prrrr... That was a bit overkill for me. Sometimes, just sometimes less is more....

I purchased a ticket for a cruise and they cancelled it. They did not refund the deposit - it's basically bad business that's all I'm saying. The advisor told me the refund of the deposit would not be refundable "if cruise cancelled" most people would assume that means if the purchaser cancelled.
