it was a great show, you guys are going to love it. the only negative was the opening band. they flipped the crowd off at least 8 times, swear to god

JohnXDoesn't 10-04-2006 09:08 PM

flipping the crowd off is a great rock n roll tradition. i'm sure the sentiment was returned :)

I'm leaving for the show in half an hour. And i'm feeling pretty good considering all of the excellent reviews.

blue3 10-05-2006 06:34 PM

That's so early.. I should leave early as well. I'm always usually late and miss the first band.

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 06:46 PM

You will all love it. I did.

I was really impressed with Wire and Glass live too.

robo2448 10-05-2006 06:57 PM

I am so jealous. Enjoy the show guys.

Lunch 10-05-2006 06:58 PM

I hate you all.

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 06:59 PM

But peace and love.......:(

Lunch 10-05-2006 07:01 PM

Hate!

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 07:03 PM

i was very impressed with pino palodino's bass playing. entwisle's shoes are tough to fill in, but i believe pino did a good job, especially because he didnt try to play exactly like entwisle played.

Lunch 10-05-2006 09:26 PM

I would say the same thing about Zak. He's a very good drummer that doesn't get much recognition because everyone immediately draws their attention to Pete and Roger (rightfully so, but still). Very talented rhythm section still with the Who though.

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 09:34 PM

I found that Zak kept everything solid but not flashy or lead-like, like Keith's. Is this because he doesn't want to copy Moon?

Lunch 10-05-2006 09:38 PM

I would say there might be some of that involved, also there's the other aspect of him not wanting to steal the spotlight from Pete and Roger. I just think it's an awkward spot to fill in for a dead amazing member of a rock powerhouse like the Who. Both Zak and Pino deliver without trying to overdo it, which is great.

And judging from what I've heard from Zak, he may not be all over the kit all the time like Moon, but he does have some tasteful fills and clearly some ability.

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 09:42 PM

Yeah, he definetly has the ability, and showed it. It just seem a little bit....whats the word...subdued? But yes. It's probably because what you said.

Also there was a track on Wire and Glass where Simon plays Mandolin. Anyone know the name of it?

robo2448 10-05-2006 09:51 PM

Zak reminds me more of Keith Moon than he does of his father. He's not an animal like Moon, but he is much more upfront than his father ever was.

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 09:56 PM

Yeah because Ringo was a joke...

*waits for Seafroggys to come defend his boyfriend*

Seafroggys 10-05-2006 09:57 PM

****ing assholes...

Lunch 10-05-2006 09:57 PM

Haha pwnt.

Edit: Damn Seafroggys do you have a radar or something that lets you know when Ringo is being attacked?

Broken Arrow 10-05-2006 09:57 PM

Haha that only took 1 minute.

Ephemeral 10-06-2006 12:40 AM

kekekeke just got back! Really good show. The set list (as best I can remember it) was:

I Can't Explain
Anyway Anyhow Anywhere
Black Widows Eyes
Who Are You
Behind Blue Eyes
Sound Round
Pick Up The Peace
Unholy Trinity
Endless Wire
We Got A Hit
Dream Come True
Mirror Door
Relay
Baba O'Riley

ah **** i can't remember right now... really good show though. The sound from where I was sitting (right by the sound mixers hehehe) was pretty decent, but the bass guitar could have been a little louder. I nearly creamed my pants when they came on for the encore, and did Pinball Wizard=>Amazing Journey=>Parts of Overtures=>Sparks etc. Then we got them to come back out after. :cool:

I think I saw Julianne (blue3) on my way back down the stairs after doing a pee pee =]

Where were you RNR?

Sorry, no pics. And maybe I will remember the setlist tomorrow. I'm in awe right now. :D

blue3 10-06-2006 01:04 AM

Hah, I totally saw you.. I think. I'm not really sure..

My friends took a ****load of pictures and I barely took any cause my camera phone sucks. One of them got a guitar pick and I didn't :(

They played The Seeker, Pinball Wizard, See Me, Feel Me, Won't Get Fooled Again, Man In A Purple Dress, Tea and Theater as well. I can't really remember the rest.

edit - omfg I forgot My Generation and You Better You Bet. They had an awesome long setlist.

JohnXDoesn't 10-06-2006 01:39 AM

so what did you guys really think, though? i mean did they sound like The Who? did they meet your expectations? what do you think of rog and pete? how was pete's playing? roger sound good? how was the crowd, etc...

how is the new stuff live? how did it go over? details, please...
