It was in Calgary and may have been his last concert concert as I believe he cancelled the rest of the tour due to throat problems.
Pete was not there but the next best thing was, Pete's brother Simon played his role.
This was an incredible concert.
I saw the Who around 80 in Detroit and to now see Daltry do Tommy start to finish was a blast.
He looked and sounded great. | |

Plus one on live at leeds, that and their performance at woodstock made me want to play guitar, big time.

(Because they were a bit more punk before that was a style of music the public was ready for. They did experiment in psychedelic rock before moving onto more concept rock albums, but I think they all lost the passion they once had in the 70's. I don't know why they kept going after Moon died, because it just wasn't the same anymore.
My favorite album is "Who sellout", because they try all sorts of material in it, but most of the songs are masterpieces. (I don't care for Rael for some reason, a bit too long maybe). | |

After Keith Moon's demise they seemed very "run of the mill" live wise. I'm afraid I didn't rate Kenny Jones at all as a drummer.
Then I saw them at Sheffield with Zak Starkey and they were on fire! Granted, Starkey is not Keith Moon but he did inject a lot more life into the sound with his "Moonesque" fills and Thunderfingers Entwhistle was awesome. It seemed apt to read that Keith Moon actually gave Zak his famous white drum kit.
