In reply to the discussion: The Who are awesome at the Sandy concert [View all]napkinz
(17,199 posts)12. I have a feeling this is the last time we're going to see all the British classic
rockers together on the same stage.
Jagger, Richards, Daltry, Townshend, McCartney, Waters, Clapton ... all around 70 years old.
(I thought the 9/11 concert was the last time, but this really will probably be the last time.)

Most towns have karaoke impersonators who can do Daltrey better than Daltrey can now.

Still, they are the real deal. And I am impressed they do as well as they do now

Actually, outside of this thread, most people I've noted seem to be turning it off.

Well, the Stones went on a farewell tour in 1981. The Who did the same in 1982.

Yes of course and I fully enjoyed it, as did a lot of far younger people, I would bet

Actually, it's pretty bad outside of Springsteen and Waters and many of their fans are hurting.

ITA! I've enjoyed the whole concert but the Who - especially Roger Daltrey - are killing me.
