Thousands of Canadian punk rockers with British flags were waiting in line since early in the morning. Worked crowd control until show started. Awesome show by both, The Who were incredible.

DC Tom Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Heart. But only the Roger Fisher lineup, not the one with Howard Leese "Look at me, I think I'm Eddie Van Halen!" on lead guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that show too. I went to see The Who; didn't know much about The Clash at the time, other than a couple of radio songs, but they were pretty impressive. The Who, of course, was spectacular. And they made it rain on cue. (Even The Stones can't do that.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to see him play all the time. He played with Zappa and the Mothers before Canned Heat. There is a crater on the moon named after his father.

BringMetheHeadofLeonLett Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 After all the selling out, and through the Townshend 'God knows what he did, to whom, if anyone, and why' era... The Who's still my rock 'n roll band. Beyond that I don't really have a clear-cut #2. Notables? - kinks, Mudhoney, nomeansno, Tom Petty, Sex Pistols, Stone Roses, Neil Young, Jefferson Airplane, X, Dinosaur Jr., Fugazi, Grateful Dead, Minutemen, Clash, Yardbirds. A bunch more beyond the dude rock stuff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
