One way or the other, Roger was never going to give less than 100% on the scream. Even if it blew his vocal cords out.

[@jayroberts-music2101]

Roger’s vocals were brilliant here, totally unexpected to hear him kill it like in his prime.

[@rayboreham2648]

Daltrey never gave less than 1,000%. One of Rock's true giants. And he can still belt out that scream to this day, as he did a few years ago at the Hard Rock in Reno. I was fortunate to catch The 'Oo many times in their 70s prime, even with Moon. Never less than thrilling.

[@christian-andreaspistor2973]

Hey jayroberts, Roger did it again in Berlin at Waldbühne on a tuesday, june 20th 2023. Just like yesterday. Overwhelming 🎤 🎼🎸😊

Are you saying pre recorded or live because live 8 wasn’t played in 2021

[@iforgotthesauce8913]

Everything that Pete does on the guitar in this live version is absolutely beautiful. Pushing his guitar to the forefront of The Who's sound, the deliberate rhythmic stopping and starting, along with his tone, and brilliant chord phrasings drive this version of Won't Get Fooled Again. Truly a guitar hero.

[@tylervancho1516]

As they say in Britain brilliant!

[@scottward6974]

Proper genuine 100% bonafide rockstars!! They really walked the walk. The only way this could have possibly been any better was if they'd smashed the instruments up at the end! Good job it was Pink Floyd and the Beatles guy who had to follow this! Most amazing final 3 acts in any line up I've heard of.

[@davidoverstreet6900]

I absolutely love the fact that Steve White, the drummer, is actually using a red sparkle Premiere drum set, just like Keith Moon had in the early days!! Fucking awesome! If you Google 'the photo of Keith behind his drum set on March 2nd 1967', I drew a picture of him playing that set, on that day, with gel ink and colored pencil. It turned out perfect!!! You could feel Keith's spirit coming through to Steve after the keyboard break. Great performance! The whole band kicked ass! I'm actually reading the book, A tribute to Keith Moon, and have arrived at the part of the book that mentioned this performance at this concert. So I decided to Google it on KZbin. I'm glad I did.

Rock’s most beautiful cry and mythical song

[@montydaniels1054]

It's hard to believe that The Who is still using the same tape of Pete's Synthesizer that he recorded back in 1971. His Audio Tech said in an interview that if the tape machine stopped working, or broke down, sometimes one of the guys would throw stuff at him like it was his fault.... I really dig it if it's true to today. I mean even when Pete changes the way he plays the song on guitar, the synth still sounds the same. At any rate, I love the song, any of the ways Pete plays it.....

[@stuanhay]

Someone commented on the Live Aid version of this that they were disappointed that the Guy on Keyboards wasn't playing that part live, but I would have thought that it would be nigh on humanly impossible to keep that up all the way through the whole 8 minutes whatever. It is a huge part of the song and has to be played exactly right for the song to work:-)

[@donfeatherstone6235]

thank god they did

[@montydaniels1054]

@@stuanhay Rabbit was what they called the keyboardist. I believe his first name is John. I know they use the tape & the keyboards whenever they do ''Who Are You & Won't Get Fooled Again''. I just find it amazing that with all the technology they still use the original. Epic I guess....

[@TheAmarok87]

They were the last act before the big Pink Floyd reunion on that day. And with their performance here they compensated their average performance at Live Aid in 1985.
