Look beyond that and see the overall theme of the song--it's a song of redemption.
Feel free to bash...I definitely wouldn't see them in concert again after this.
The Stones sounded great, but they pretty much blew this off. They ended up being a non-factor, sadly.
It seems the Who always ends up blowing the Stones off the stage whenever they share a bill.
The hilarity continues!
It is true man, unlike some on this board I actually bite my tongue versus spouting off about every band I dont like... I know some must like them, so I typically just dont say anything... Who fans would not dig my uncensored Who comments... so I try to be good.
I don't think you are.
Legend has it that this is the main reason The Rock n Roll Circus didn't see the light of day of official release for nearly 30 years.
Look, I give the Stones credit for fitting this show in on tight notice with a show the next day, but playing for, what, 10 minutes? Not even worth it.
If they'd played their asses for 30 minutes like the Who, then maybe it'd have been a fair fight, but there's no way to compare the two tonight.
That's OK, don't censor yourself, I'm secure enough in my Who fandom to not be offended. The Who that's part of my big 4--Beatles, Stones, Who, Kinks....
Not even worth it??? worth it for who?? the hurricane victims?

It's not even worth it to complain--it's just a benefit, not a career-defining moment.
TRUE, The Stones did 2 two songs that didn't suck and the Who did entire set that sucked. They were awful. Pete sounded ok, but Roger murdered the music. The shirt coming off was ridiculous.
Is it old age, senility? Weren't these guys at some point cool?
I can't even remember anymore and I'll never burn that image of a half naked Daltry wailing in and out of tune.
Hang it up!
Thanks hb! Never been a Def Leppard fan myself, but I appreciate his comment. Never thought about Pete's playing that way. Very insightful quote.
I love the Who, they are also in my top 4. That my friend, was not the who. Sometimes less isn't more, and 1/2 the Who and a singer that looks like my grandma...that is NOT the who.
Talk about your favorite band.

Ok, Love Reign 'Ore Me sounds very good! Pete is fantastic!
Yet - do the folks want to hear "I need a drink of cool cool rain"?

The Who is playing well took a bit for them to get going. Roger does not sound great but oh well. Do they have to play thos shitty Tea and Sympathy song to end every gig though?? Its as bad as Streets of Love!
Max - You are off base with your comments The Who is trying. The Stones played well but seems like they could not wait to leave the stage. Maybe not but it seemed it. Glad they came but another song or two would have been nice.
