I have to disagree with some of you. I love this band so much and saw them on this tour a couple of times. Not their finest hour by any means. Townshend was sometimes pissed (not here), but I remember at Leicester he was fucking out of it playing 'Roadrunner' for about 30 minutes while he could hardly stand up.

@massiveham of course i meant "no band'

who would have thought that the 'oo mattered in '81? funny that this and the ox's last roar twenty years later would seem so essential to us now. on this night, now band worked harder!

@jorghad6 Rock and Roll didn't exist in the 1990's.

@Idiglove77 Oh and when I say 1 of the best shows, U must understand, we were seeing show bands like WHO FLOYD YES KISS Todd Rundgren ZAPPA TULL RUSH ELP Moody Blues Alice Cooper KANSAS and so many others in their prime. I'd put WHO FLOYD ELP Rundgren YES on top and maybe SANTANA. John Maclaughlin+Mahavishnu Orchestra+ Jeff Beck would also be right up their too. Beck's Blow By Blow tour. Freakin' awesome!! BUT tickets are too damn high now. $200+ for "OK" seats is BS.

@Idiglove77 What size R U?(:>) Really that would have to be a helluva beer.
Maybe a case of Belgian Ale eh? The story. I was playing bass in a band in Dallas and on an a night off drove100mi to friends house then another 250mi to Houston for this show. Friend pulled some strings and got great seats. Steel Breeze opened OK, Billy Squire came out and sucked (people were actually booing) WHO rocked for about 3 hrs. I think the tickets were $20 and that was a lot back then. T was $5! GT! Later.

@4to88strings I've heard this before,an I think,how can it be their best,but as much as I love Keith too,and that era,I'm a big fan of this period '79 onwards. and this is a great live track. As for John,nothing to be said,his name says it all. So jealous you were here. Buy ya beer for that Tee!ha!
Regards.

As much as I loved Keith Moon, I have to say this was The Who at their best
I saw them on this tour in a sold out Astrodome. 1 of the best shows I've ever seen. I still have the Tshirt that I've long since outgrown. I just can't throw it away. Rog and Pete's vocals never sounded better. Big John was amazing as always, and KJ was an awesome replacement for the late Loon. Entwistle is a huge influence on my bass styling. Still hard to believe he's gone. Musician extraordinare. RIP Keith and John

It's true, the Ox always had his fingers moving. No getting stuck on one note on the neck of any bass he played, and he gathered over 400 in his lifetime.
Pete didn't sound very shallow in this number either.
Very hot evening it seems.
Peace.
Rock
Entwistle is not an underrated bass player. He's about as revered as it gets, and deservedly so.

great rock n roll died out in the nineties.
sure they're are some bands that are good that are still around, like Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Paramore, Dance Gavin Dance etc. but there will never be another Who or another ACDC or another Beatles no matter what anyone says
