Visuals were outstanding, Daltrey's voice in great form, and the Music sounded stunning. Only small complaint I have is that Pete's voice was strained and sounded like he was shouting. Would have preferred if he used a mellower voice. But his performance was incredible as always. I especially liked the karate chops directly to the fret board in combination with his windmills.

This show had it ALL! The voices of Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend are as crystal clear as they were decades ago and the way that they included solos from Entwhistle and Moon was AWESOME! A phenomenal show that will go down in history as a do-not-miss tour that was worth every penny. I flew to Minneapolis from Cleveland to see this concert, and if this tour isn't coming to your hometown, you should do the same. The man sitting next to me had seen The Who is D.C. and flew in from Denver to see it a second time. BUY THE TICKETS!!! Life is too short not to!

Featured Review

The Who came to Boston to perform their 1973 rock opera Quadrophenia, which tells the story of a Mod named Jimmy living in England in the mid 1960s. The band of course is only with two of their original members, lead singer Roger Daltrey, and lead guitarist and primary song writer Pete Townshend. Filling the shoes of diseased bassist and drummer John Entwistle and Keith Moon were Pino Palladino on bass, and Zak Starkey (the son of Beatles drummer Ringo Starr) on drums. Those two have been touring with the band for the past few years, and they both did a good job filling the big shoes they had to fill. Pete's younger brother Simon Townshend was also there as a second guitarist and had lead vocals on the song Dirty Jobs. Despite being in their late 60s, Townshend and Daltrey still had all their old moves on stage, Pete did a few windmills on the guitar, and Roger did his signature microphone twirl at times, he also sported his classic look of wearing an unbuttoned shirt and appeared to be in good shape. Taking advantage of modern technology, they band was able to use video screens to add to their performance and represent John Entwistle by playing a video of one of his bass solos on the song 5:15. They did the same for Keith Moon by playing a video of him singing the song Bell Boy from one of their concerts back in the 70's. It was a nice way to pay tribute to their former members. Once the band concluded Quadrophenia with a powerful rendition of Love Reign O'er Me, Townshend took on the roll of leader and introduced the lesser known members of the band as well as the supporting members. He then said it was time for some "classic symphony music" as the band broke out into a bunch of their hits which included, Baba O'Riley, Behind Blue Eyes, Who Are You, Pinball Wizard, and Won't Get Fooled Again. After that everyone left the stage except for Pete and Roger, who after a bit of banter played the song Tea and Theater from their recent album from 2006 Endless Wire. After that, the two original members of The Who left the stage and the show was over. Overall, the concert was great and it was really cool to see the greatest band in the world. While Townshend and Daltrey may be in their late 60's they can still rock just as well as they did 40 years ago.

I saw the Who 5 days after Tommy was released, and at Woodstock. Today, their energy, Roger's voice, Pete's leading and playing, were better than expected. ZaK Starkey certainly is one of the best, creative, accurate, energetic, and sensitive drummers rock has ever seen - hard to fill an icon's shoes, and he did, easily. All the sidemen, sound, lighting, support was great. The presentation of the show memorable. But the current meaning of Quadrophenia from Townshend, was displayed with intense vigor and timeliness. The videos gave me a new sense of what Quadrophenia was/is about. Playing with the videos of John and Keith was wonderful. Not only captures the original feel, but brings it up to date.
And then doing 5 of their classic hits, starting with Pinball Wizard. Just awesome.
No question, one of the best shows I have ever seen, from one of the top 3 rock acts ever.

One of the best shows I've ever seen. Pete Townshend and brother killed it on guitar, Roger has amazing stage presence, and Pino Palladino and Zak Starkey were unbelievable, Zak in particular doing the best Keith Moon I've ever seen. The show was just beautiful and the performances were inspired, with Pete windmilling his way through a ton of sweet solos, and the vocals sounding great. The acoustics in the new Barclays Center are also notably excellent, especially for an arena that large. The opener, Vintage Trouble, was a killer SRV-meets-JB.

The Who gave, once again, a memorable performance that justified the 100 mile trek to Greensboro. The music was sublime, Townshend was inspired, and Daltrey just lit-up the stage with his presence and perfomance. The visuals were EXCEEDINGLY fantastic and took Quadrophenia to new heights.

The show was all i hoped it would be. Pete and Roger were in fine form and the band excellent. Quadrophenia is such a rock classic with a great story, beautiful music and a majestic finish. Five encores of WHO classics followed, all of which were just awesome. I had always wanted to see Pete play and no one strikes a power chord better. The background video montage and guest appearances by Entwistle and Moon are special. I would have been totally satisfied just to have seen Love reign oer me, but wont get fooled again was still as great as when i first heard it some 30-40 years ago. So...I say go see the show! I wish I could go again!

Despite being in their late sixties, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey still have the power to move and inspire. They have a great backup band and a giant video display to help them get the album Quadrophenia across better than ever before. And their late band members John Entwistle and Keith Moon make appearances as well! And the opening act Vintage Trouble play soul style classics with more than a touch of James Brown. A great opening act.

What can I say? Unforgetable. Amazing. Beautiful. Great memories, both of the music and the band themselves. All of Quadrophenia, some old old ones, some not so old. Yes, we saw Pete do his windmill guitar playing and Roger even swung his mic around (amazing the crew didn't duct tape the cord to the mic like in the old days). The videos were appropriate, moving, and the Entwistle track was oh so nice to see and hear, as was Moon's old parts as well. They finished with the emotional "Cup of Tea", which I was hoping they would. But even after that, the crowd, and myself, didn't want them to leave even after 2-1/4 hours. It was THAT GOOD!

I had never seen the Who before this show.
The band was out of control awesome... Watching and listening as the backdrop showed film of past performances in sync with the current was a great way to get the experience of the original band and appreciate all that has occurred over time.

Daltry and Townsend performed and entertained with an energy and talent that would have made a fan out of anyone who had never seen or heard them before.
At the end, with the band introductions and kudos to all who worked to put the show together, we were struck by their sincerity and sense of humbleness as they also thanked the audience for continuing to support them.

Saw the Quadrophenia show in Philadelphia, in December.I do not miss a Who concert in my area ever.I was anticipating the same great performance in Atlantic City.
Wow,was I ever shocked.The Atlantic City show was a much tighter and powerful show.The interaction between Roger and Pete,was so evident.The band was on fire and the acoustics were superb.
At the end Roger thanked all those in attendance for 49 great years.Sincerely hope the Who come back around.

Outstanding show. Musicianship, energy, and execution were all incredible. The additional band members did an outstanding job creating the complex, full sound of Quadrophenia. In their late 60's, I would expect their age would be obvious in their performance, either in lack of energy or quality. Not the case - Pete still jumps around the stage like a maniac (OK, maybe not quite as much as the old days), and Roger still wields the microphone like a weapon. Especially impressed with Roger's ability to sing with the same power that propelled the music 40 years ago.

Elvis Costello fired up the audience with an incredible set, finishing with the Who's Substitute. Nice touch. I was 12 years old in 1968 when I first saw the Who. 45 years later and Roger and Pete came onstage and just rocked the place. From the moment they walked on stage, everyone was on their feet the whole show. They were strong, powerful and magnetic. Their music still shakes you to your core. It was an honor to donate to their cause and a privilege to see them perform.

The Who rocked the Verizon Arena in Manchester, NH. Quadrophenia was the best concert in some time. I liked the complementary videos of Keith Moon and John Entwistle. We so miss those guys! Quadrophenia has always been my favorite album, and the Who showed they are the best rock n roll group of all time - Sorry Mick and Keith!
The Who played for 2 hours straight with no breaks, then played some of their popular songs. These Mods still know how to rock.
Pete, Roger and Zak and Simon, Thank you so much for the many years you have shared your fantastic music with us. Please come again!
