So excited for The Who's Tommy coming up! What a great way to spend Halloween weekend with my wife. Is anyone thinking of dressing up in Halloween spirit?
Roger Daltrey is expected to give an amazing performance &- come on- he is a ROCK GOD. I've only heard top notch things about this tour!
This is a band I've hailed since their inception and this will be a trip down memory lane.
Tickets are selling out fast, the buzz is out! So I highly recommend jumping on board and purchasing ASAP

Since 1965, I have been a Who fan, but can't abide the price for Daltrey alone. I saw The Who in 1969 (along with The James Gang with Joe Walsh) for $6.00. In 1975, I was one of 78,000 who saw them at Pontiac Silverdome ($8.00). After Keith Moon died, in 1982 I saw their first "farewell" tour with 67,000 others at Seattle Kingdome ($16.00). I even saw John Entwistle in the Palliser Hotel downtown in 1988. No concert should cost more than about 2 hours pay for the average worker. With rare exceptions, I have passed up many hundreds of concerts in the last few years because the prices are simply outrageous. Roger is a good singer, but he's not the band - and half of them are dead now. Besides, TOMMY has been done on film, in musicals, plays, etc. It is only a small part of the fantastic repertoire that was mostly Pete Townshend's creation.
