THE TWO


I think that's a clever name since they aren't really The Who anymore. It's Pete and Rog doing Who material. (along with Zak, Rabbit, Simon, and Pino)

It was the second best concert I've ever been to (Paul's 2002 tour is first).
But the energy was just everywhere. I felt so great and free the whole time. When they started out with "Can't Explain" that was it for me. I was mesmerized.
After "You Better You Bet" Roger had to leave the stage because of breathing problems. My dad and I were both really worried. Pete performed "My Generation" and "Cry If You Want" on his own. We were talking about how this was probably one of the only times he's ever performed "My Generation" without Roger.
Roger came back on stage (saying "Shit happens") and performed really well the rest of the night.
The anticipation of the "Won't Get Fooled Again Scream" was almost too much to bare - but he did it PERFECTLY. I was so happy.
Also, closer to the end of the show Pete did the bird - and this really got to me. IT'S PETE TOWNSHEND.
The Who are such a big musical force. I love them so much and I'm so glad I got to see them. (thank you Dad!)
Before the show dad and I both got shirts so I can remember this day for the rest of my life.
