Thanks for posting Ron, you always keep us up to date, but lets be honest this is pretty uninspiring stuff, I know its early days of this leg of the tour, but! The once greatest live band in the world, & they were without doubt, are now tired. I think at times Rog looks lost & Pete looks as if he doesn't want to be there, even though his between song banter can still be great. The versions of 'Young Man' & 'Naked Eye' were woeful no matter how under rehearsed they were, no excuses. When they return to the UK I wont be going to see them, I have seen 'The Who' on most UK tours since 1973, I will enjoy the albums & the Knowledge that I was lucky enough to see them in their prime. And I'm still looking forward to the 'Who's Next' box hoping for the promised live gig inclusion.  My decision is not just based on this footage I've thought this for over a year or so now.

Thanks mate.

You're very welcome!

I hear you and I get the same feeling watching the clips. Under-rehearsed and apparently first two shows had a lot of technical issues. The clips give me the feeling of lackluster, I don't know. Apparetly the most recent Columbus show was much better though.

Still not sure about the orchestra either. Certainly it adds a lot depth to Tommy and Quad pieces, but for example in Baba intro and in Eminence Front it just sounds horrible to me.
