Many bargains remain for the Grand Rapids show. $20 seats plus many seats in the front for $150. Seems tickets are moving slow.

Oh yes very nice, and there's a nice smattering of tunes from several other albums as well.
And for those who were skeptical about the orchestra, they were only used for the first half the show.
Personally I've been looking forward to it ALL.

One set with the band between two orchestra sets, according to the setlist (I'm posting a clickable link instead of a photo of the actual setlist to avoid spoilers, just in case).

Frustrated and sad and a tad angry, the fans gave up on this one.

Yeah, that's exactly how I felt the last time I saw The Who .... and that was 11 years ago.

I predict that by the time the tour gets to the Hollywood Bowl in October, they will have it all perfected to a science.
Either that, or the orchestra will be ditched altogether ...
New tour merch with new theme - “I just think this is a shit idea Roger had" - available soon lol.

Agreed, I am going to the show at the new Chase Center here in SF. Loving the schedule....I get to see Clapton, Elton John and the Who in a three week period!

most likely ditched. orchestras are expensive & lot of shows aren't selling well at all. i think roger has lost huge amounts of money on 2 orchestra tours. at least 1 of them was a total bomb financially. i've seen them do won't get fooled acoustic....meh..... should be interesting. i'm going to reserve total judgement until i hear a good tape. they will be out there.

Hear a good tape? That’s like saying I like driving this car because of the commercial. If you want to judge a show, just go.

I was surprised there was not an encore last night. By the way, “ Won’t get fooled again” was the acoustic version.

They haven't done encore for many many years. Townshend said it's stupid to walk off stage, stand around for 3 minutes, then come back out.
