What a load. I saw the Who's latest concert at George, Washington and it was incredible. The band has a vibrancy unlike any of its contemporaries. It made it that much sadder that John wasn't there, but it was worth every penny.
LONG LIVE ROCK!!

LONG LIVE ROCK!! Oops! I got a red "X"
Here's a couple I like:
Pete with his Gibson SG
An airborne Pete with a Gibson Les Paul.
You can always tell what artistic era The Who was in by the guitar Pete played.
Rickenbackers: The Early Years
Fender Strats and Teles: The Psychadelic Years
Gibson SGs: The Rock Opera Years
Gibson Les Pauls: The Arena-Rock Years
Schechter Teles (the black ones): The First Farewell Tour
Acoustic Guitars: The Second and Third Farewell Tours (his hearing was damaged)
Now he's back to Fender Strats again.

I also was at the Gorge. One of the best places to watch and listen. The concert was well worth the price and no where near the cost the article lists. I believe they were $80 or so and though I thought it was a little steep, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The Gorge is not exactly in a populated area and is about a three hour drive for us, so it becomes a weekend thing for us. As far as reliving youth, I never went to concerts in the 70s as they did not fit in my budget then.
