I love seeing aging rockers who are still able to rock. Lead Singer Robert Daltrey proved he still had his vocal chords in tact and Pete Townsend can still do windmills on the guitar at last night’s The Who Super Bowl half time show.
With one of the coolest stages I think I’ve ever seen, these Brit rockers kept the show going last night with their classic hits like ‘Baba O’Rielly’ and ‘Who Are You’, and a light show that is unmatchable. Though I found it a little ironic that a UK band was playing at the biggest American event of the year, that irony was soon forgotten as The Who Super Bowl half time show was one of the best classic rock performances I have ever seen.
