Tribute to The Who

This post is a tribute to The Who. To be that old and play the Superbowl and still rock is amazing. In case you didn't notice, Keith Moon is playing the drums in this one. If I'm right here, then this is one of the last concerts he played.



If anyone else would like to post tributes to legends like these who still got it, this is the time.

Ah the Who, certainly my favorite band of all time.

I have seen them in person three times (none with Keith Moon though). I think it was a shame that the Superbowl sound mixing seemed to not favor the drumming because Zack Starkey does a great job.

Nice post.

I'm lucky I got to see them before Entwistle basically killed himself. I can't remember when exactly Moon died, but I'm pretty sure ever seeing him was an impossibility for me.

Anyway, in any The Who tribute this has to be included.


I wish there wasn't the extra inserted images in the end, but it is still awesome. I think one of the extra shots is when Moon had put explosives in his kit without letting the others know about it.

Also have to include the follow up Jimi Hendrix performance. I believe the story goes that Jimi and The Who were having a disagreement over who would have to follow who and these two performances are them trying to top each other.


Also just for fun, here are two of my favorites that are a little different. Squeeze Box is just awesome and so is Happy Jack but the drumming in Happy Jack gets me every time.


And couldn't resist throwing a live version in too that shows Moon going at it.
