How are good tickets being sold in Europe? Fan club? How to get front floors? I must know!!!
kins, what do your sources say? Looks like the fall tour is concurrent with the Stones. Twofers?????? |

The Who dont have an official fan club JJ.
On the whole they just went on general sale(there was a ticketmaster presale for Leeds).Except for the festival gigs(which always sell quick)the others were easy to get , Brighton took a few weeks to sell out,I dont think Beauliue has yet.
oh and most if not all of the Briish gigs are standing general admission type events ,so vantage point is all down to patience and stamina.

Gazza: Rub it in ? Moi ???? Never!......
Did I already mention I was standing at the front and so near to Pete that I could have grabbed his crotch ,if only he wasn't so damn tall????
Question to Jumping Jack:
What makes you so sure that the film footage from this first and historical gig won't make it onto an official DVD??? I would hope that after being blinded by the sodding lights the entire evening I would at least get something out of it, besides the unique memory of it, that is....
As Gazza said about the Stones Brixton gig: this was one of the most memorable nights of my life ! (addendum: at least of the ones in which there was no sex involved whatsoever....) |

IMO, the Who , im their original line up and even with kenny Jones, where the 2 nd greatest group of all time....they are truly legends and have alwasy been very respectful to the Stones....Pete is a tempermental genuis(see circa 82-02), but truly , along with MT, the greatest lead player ever....Pray that possible the Stadium fall tour includes the Who!!!!!!!!!! |

Thanks for the pics. They look cool.
I wish the Stones would adopt the t-shirt jeans look and drop the glittery jackets and fancy dress. Much more laid-back R&R cool look - and more dignified IMO |

Your Babs tickets speak for themselves.
What I want to know is what your Stones and Who sources have to say about the fall. |

" As far as I know I'm the only one from this board (so far) who was actually present at the gig, and I say the new songs were a bummer and they sucked. So there! I also say that I am not alone feeling like this, as the intense traffic around the bar and the toilets as well as the immediate cessation of any dancing activity attested on the night in question. "
Pete & Rog really do not care what anybody thinks about the new material -- they play it for themselves as much as for the audience and it will catch on as time progresses -- until then , the band will continue to sell out stadiums / arenas / festivals night after night ( see : THE ROLLING STONES ) and everyone will leave the concert EXTREMELY Happy and worn out from dancing so much throughout the gig ( again , see : THE ROLLING STONES ) .
Jacky Cakes ! |

I'm sleepy. This isn't helping. The Who tour could have been a bust but the varified set list will keep us coming. I'll be there. Not Omaha though. |

To me, the most startling fact on this thread is from JumpingJack.
Barbra Streisand is a commie?
Wow

To Mr Joey and his bioluminescent finger:
My comments were a direct answer to the original statement in the quoted official review, claiming that "the new songs went down a storm with the audience". I am simply saying this was really not my impression on the night, quite the opposite, in fact! And remember, there were only 2000 people in that room, so it's easy to see the effect of each song.
If The Two don't care and are playing the stuff for themselves, I say: "GOOD FOR THEM!!!"
But I may just be a bit more cynical than you, personally I guess that if you are selling boxed soundboard CDs of your concerts, perhaps the setlists themselves or at least the way they get reshuffled have been decided upon a long time ahead, after all you have to keep the buying punter's interest up for 23 consecutive shows, and those punters want new stuff from their creative geniuses, I suppose....
The new stuff may grow on me, it may not grow on me, who gives a shit ??? I was just making a point about the tripe journalists write, which in this case should be filed in the "fiction and not fact" department...

You are correct Corgi, so is so far left and crazy even the commies don't want her. She was the easiest lay on the white house lawn for slick Willie, however. One more in a long list of artists who confuse celebrity with divine wisdom who thinks the louder and more obnoxious she is the more convincing her arguments. Just another out of touch, hypocritical, Hollywood assclown. That said, she does have a great voice. |

It is rumoured that Barbara Streisand's setlist opener on the first concert night will be "The Two don't bring me flowers anymooooooooooooooooooooooooooore..." |
