Man.
No words. Should have sent a poet!
Tommy Medley!
When Roger sang "See Me, Feel Me", I bawled like a fucking baby.
God damn I love those sons-a-bitches.
We were evil and yelled at them to play "Magic Bus". Said Pete, "If you keep asking for it... you're still not going to hear it." My brother said later, "Well, what would we have done if he HAD played Magic Bus? That would be it, really. Nothing else in life could live up to that." David: Hmm, this is good coffee... *sigh* But it's not Magic Bus.
Pete said sorry for missing Australia all those years ago, and that he found it an incredible country and that he was really glad to be here. Sounded like he meant it, so I was all weepy. Not that I was alive the first time round, but I don't mind.
Hilarious moment: The crowd was made up of people who were kids in the sixties, people who were kids in the seventies and people who are kids now. All of them were singing along to "My Generation".
Roger Daltrey commented on the dry Perth wind. "It's like singing into a bloody hairdryer! Is it dry or is it just me? It's bloody dry, innit?" Pete said, "There's no wind here." Roger: "It must be on my side of the stage. It's over here!" Pete: *mimes being blown away*.
There is nothing, nothing like hearing "Won't Get Fooled Again", being in the same stadium as Roger and Pete. And Ringo's awfully talented son. It was an experience. I'll remember it forever and ever.

Date: 2009-04-04 07:35 pm (UTC)I wish I'd seen more of the Who as a whole, but my sister's managed it the most. She even got to see John Entwistle doing a solo show, thirteen years ago or so, which was rather intimate and she said quite amazing (she has his guitar pic). She's seen all the members (short of Keith, of course, since she's only 28) solo, and the group as a whole about... three or four times. She missed this tour though - had tickets, didn't go for a number of reasons. Sounds awesome; I'm glad to hear they are as incredible still as they were 10+ years ago. I wish I'd seen Pete more than just once - and I am not even familiar with most of "Quadrophenia" so I really wish I'd seen them on a different tour... oh well! At least I seen 'em, right? :D
