Thanks @mohs
I would of loved to see the Who in there prime
Well Paul I could give my perspective
‘71 Who Next Tour
Phoenix Veteran Memorial Coliseum
15,000 long haired stohn hippie…mostly
Beginning of the show I got rushed up
to the front of the stage. All Standing !
Loud ! Exciting !
Frantic! Too much!
Middle of the show
I wrestled myself to the back row floor seats
They were vacant
The large part of the crowd was up front
& the stadium upstairs seating
were rocking with standing
swaying crazed hippies
I was standing on the on the last row seat right in the middle
About 40 yards from the stage. Beautiful view. Enormous thundering.
Pete Townsend was saying all nite long that there was
Big Surprise in store for us and something about purple roach.
But big surprise was a coming, and purple roach. Thunderous sounds!
Entwhistle booming .
Moon zooming/
Crash Boom Bangs.
And big surprise was coming.
Hippies were drinking smoking feinting crazing dancing ^
all kinds of various rocking. Tommy can you see me ?
Now I'm not sure this is exactly what happened.
The show must have been 2 & half hours in. Thunderous !
I been standing petrified mesmerized on last/ row floor middle seat. Mesmerized. Petrified,
And occasionally yelling. Tommy can hear me?
I don’t know if it was an encore or the last number of the sweat set.
Moon was glistening . Wild sticks twirling. Daltrey Microphone swirling,.
Anyway from somewhere open the Moog sounds of
Won’t Get Fooled Again Oh Oh Ominous. lowrumbling. Floorrolling / Wallsfalling Roofraising Thundering
Laser Light beaming Bounding crazed hhippies screaming
And Big surprise was coming. Not sure what happened w/the purple bug.
And I’m standing on the middle seat by myself . Beautiful view. Straight on. Thunderous Quad!
And Won’t Get Fooled Again is pulsating.
Laser lights beaming. Total frenetic energy from the stage.
! Enwhistle Booming, Moon Zooming. Daltry Roaring. Townsensend
