The Who "I Cant Explain" Live Massachusetts 1970

[GreenhouseEffectGE]

keith singing back up - awesome !!!!

[Amsterdam74yeah]

Keith = God Forever

Roger = Jon Bon Jovi

[lofi73]

Fuck they were good!

[bellhorn2b]

Is Pete doing a little homage to Ian Anderson (who was also on the bill) at 1:56?

[thebigguyconnor]

@bellhorn2b I don't know much about Jethro Tull - how is that a homage? is that a move ian anderson does? lol

[babyshambler]

There is a DVD (bootleg) available. I also read it may get an official release soon.

[ccrholland]

Absolutely stunning performance and quality! Thanks!

[epimetero]

hey this one has a far better quality than the one I own!! is this an officiale release?

[BritIronRebel]

Yeah...I'd love to have a DVD of this concert!

[MrGb1965]

Moon's triplets in between the beat toward the end make all the difference, and help set this band apart.

[twoboots4you]

If I could be anyone else, It would be Pete Townshend.

[DKVillain]

GREAT SONG!

[rajbeast]

was this in boston or somewhere else in massachusetts?

[MrGb1965]

Tanglewood, I understand. Tull warmed up.

[rajbeast]

yea they performed a lot of shows in tanglewood in 1970

[rajbeast]

what do u mean by "tull warmed up"? did jethro tull open for the who?

[MrGb1965]

Yes.  Pete mentions it in his introduction to "Water", and also says that in the previous year Jefferson Airplane warmed up for them.

[rajbeast]

oh nice

[firegeek22]

were do we find out who all the winners r?

[TwoEarsWet]

type in the who on google and go on there website

[MaxSeidelman]

Mine won. Fuck the judges.

[MaxSeidelman]

Total bullshit, mine should have won. No one's ever seen an actual slow motion windmill at 300-600 fps before.

[swendish]

I have to join in with a response as well. I loved the winning video. Very clever, well produced and edited. I wish I was film student with piles of fancy gear. Having said that, the video should have been dropped from consideration. It wasn't his best windmill... it was his best short subject film.

Your teacher asks you to write an essay on your summer vacation and you chime in with Dad's story of climbing K2 in 1990. Great adventure but hardly sticking to task assigned.

What a crock!

[MaxSeidelman]

Which video was it?

[billdoon111]

Where is the winner runner-up list?

[pauljnort]

Exactly. If I had known the criteria for winning was for the best "clever", "funny", Master Editid Short Film, i never would have joined in. This had Nothing to do with Good WINDMILLS. Hello? I suppose it was presumptuous to think this was about doing the best impersonation.

[longliveWHO515]

why is the grand prize a guitar if its a contest for the best film maker? not musicians?

[longliveWHO515]

This contest is a fucking joke. masonwoodward should of been first place out of all the winners not some edited short film bullshit with audio overdubbed, thats not the spirit of the who. i cut my thumb open doing windmills for this eat my shit

[aai005]

Dude, your video was 45 seconds so you can't complain of not winning...but I agree about that the runners up were pretty badly picked. But they were picked by people from companies n stuff and not musicians, so that's the way the cookie crumbled.

[longliveWHO515]

Mmmmm cookies...

[TheDeathmade]

sadly, they must have gotten swamped with entries at the end, I dont believe that I will get entered for this one :(

[MrJimmyWade]

I'm quite dissapointed :/ I uploaded my attempt when the competition started, I DEFINETLEY uploaded as a video response, but its not here.

[patohdz]

yeah man!!! same here.

Whats going on????

I've uploaded my video as a video response to this one on july 19th and its not there either...wtf?

[alastairjr40]

I've enter a video in THEWHOWINDMILLCONTEST, but with no sound, I was playing Can't Explain.

[firegeek22]

When do we find do out who won?

[MattEllenberger]

The 15th of July, I think..I'm wondering when they are going to put up the rest of the videos....

[firegeek22]

Oh alright thanks they should come up in a couple of days.

[ohio1968javelin]

LONG LIVE ROCK!Good luck everybody

[guitarJam5]

MrModDog ... Yeah, that sounds right. Upload to account, then post a video response to this page and select your video. You should be good to go in that sense. Then, make sure you fill out the form ... and that's where my question comes in ... I'm wondering if anyone got an e-mail confirmation ...

[MrModDog]

ok thanks very much for your reply, is that what you did and your video has shown up as a response? Hope you get your comfirmation

[MrModDog]

Ok, I upped my vid to my account first to see the quality was alright, then i went to post a response to this vid and I selected my vid. Is that ok, or do I need to upload the vid WHEN I GO TO POST A RESPONSE. Has anyone reponded with a vid they'd already uploaded and been succesful in seeing it go up here? Thanks

[guitarJam5]

Hey, did anyone get an e-mail response that their video and filled out form were accepted/received?

[IANDANDY]

brilliant

[Hady1994]

just got to be patient guys :)

[guitarJam5]

Yeah, looks like it's going to be a tough wait ... I'm re-learning a couple of Who songs to pass the time ...

[TheWhoRocksMySocks]

what? a week later for the results?!?! I'm on pins and needles already! :)

[clivestubbs]

I think I fogot to add the tag THEWHOWINDMILLCONTEST

Does anyone know how to find out if i did or not?? as i cant see my sad effort anywhere in the section of subscribers??

Help

[Mantrasolo]

It might take awhile before it's all updated Calm down, have a brandy, and wait.

[holdsm]

Sure Bill Canell does a good Job but mrsainty goes the whole way. I saw the Who-Dunnit show where he smashed the strat. It was awesome. If anyone deserves to win a guitar it's him!!!!

[LIGHTintheHALLS]

Check out BILL CANELL aka BC67WHO of Who's Next Tribute band. He is the real deal and does this for real. He is the best I have seen. You must see them live!

[firegeek22]

I hope, also I hope they come sign on soon, i want mine approved.

[MichelleWiggins]

Don't complain about the limited number of entries.  The less, the better! - I so want that autographed guitar....

[firegeek22]

same and we pretty much all got it made, they r giving 26 prizes out. There r only like 11 video responses, becasue some were uploaded twice.

[foolintherain03]

yeah but think about it most people will upload their videos at the last minutes so their will probably be many more

[MichelleWiggins]

I love the WHOOOOOOOOOOO

[alanweinkrantz]

I entered my video about one hour ago. Would love to see other entries

[delbut2]

just done mine. where do you go to see others?

[firegeek22]

Hey how long did it take for ur id to get in the video responses?

[delbut2]

Just done mine. Where do we go to see others?

[JimiTheWho]

i don't think they're going to approve the video responses right away because i already entered mine.

[firegeek22]

Well its been about 5 days now and I don't see urs now mate? I entered mine around 4:30 today.

[Androminate]

Pete, what guitar was that?

It looks alot like the one I have.

[firegeek22]

I know I am not Pete, but I can answer your question, it's a Gibson SG

[Anticrombie918]

he's the reason i got an SG. not angus like most people think

[firegeek22]

Nice man. I might get a black one, but I am looking for a strat right now so, thats y I entered this contest. and it's a free guitar, I mean come on.

[Mantrasolo]

Same here.

[Androminate]

Doesn't anyone wan't to win a Fender signed by Pete?

[BrickUnit]

i think most people who are entering are over 30 or 40, they probably have no clue as how to work youtube :(

[DrummerTheWho]

good point lol

[firegeek22]

I know I was like wtf, there is only 13 entries, 14 including mine now.

[jacytoon]

I was just about ask the same thing. What gives?

[thankyoupourlavideo]

Why is Roger wearing high heels? That's ridiculous! Really good quality video. Is this on the new DVD?

[RamonesMusic]

why not?, look what KISS wore

[firegeek22]

There is a difference between The who and KISS though. KISS were all about the atmosphere and The Who r about the music more.
