Saw these guys in the Brighton Centre last night. As good as ever. My advice. DON'T miss them this time round. A class act.

Yeah,Paulywauly, this time around I don't wanna miss their show!!!

So, even if they won't play in Italy (as it always happened since the seventies - their last gig was in 1972 or 1973 in Rome) I'll be in Ulm (Germany) for their gig on July 23nd!!!

I hope that it will be a great show (Maximum R & B!!!)

I'll be there in bristol!

I'll be at Hyde Park! ;-)

ANYWHERE ELSE is the place to be. Sorry, PaulyWaul . . .

And your point is? Liverpools a fab place.......

Sure it is. But the Who ain't a fab band . . .

Ok, your opinion! Wrong by a mile but yours none the less......

Well, I'm sure we can agree on one thing, ablett: The Stones.

(namely that they're "the bomb.")

Just as long as you aint knee deep in 1972.......

Knee deep in '81 lately, actually . . .

Thank christ for that......

...on the very rare occasions that anyone decent ever plays there, yes! The crowds generally tend to go mental.

rain'll do that . . .

Liverpool for both nights.

its tough to get excited about the who without entwistle.. at least for me..

as a friend of mine joked... they shouldn't be called the who.. they should go by 'the two'

without moon or ox i think its just not the who...

sucks..

Hang on, you think that rain can drive people mental.

This wouldn't be through your own personal experience would it, by any chance?

I just don't really get the Who. They were among the good bands long ago, and in a way, they were important. They were never great, in my opinion. But, I'm glad they are around if they are putting out a product that makes some of us old people happy.

I tell ya... Pete and Roger should hook up with Paul and Ringo. That way both bands would have a full lineup again. One set of Who songs, one set of Beatles songs. Maybe they could even play some Stones stuff as an encore! It is great to see these guys back out there, but it is crazy to have all of these backing musicians. The Who should just be four guys blowing ears apart. It hasn't been that way in a long @#$%& time.

They could call themselves Beatles Who?

Same here. I tried a couple of times listening to them, but I've never been able to appreciate their music. Not sure why, although the words 'bombastic' and 'complicated' come to mind. Which is kinda weird, because I do like the early Queen stuff.
