If I ever had the chance to meet Pete, I think I would just start crying uncontrollably. His art has been a cornerstone of my existence for nearly 50 years. As poignant as it ever was. 🙏❤

[@jimbo7484]

Holy shit!! I was thinking that myself. The amount of talent this man has is astounding. He has been a constant part of my life since the age of fourteen. Thank you to the poster,I had not seen this performance.

[@planreview]

There’s no crying in baseball, or rock n roll. 😳 (but Pete might be the exception 👍🏼)

[@tomduerr6409]

I would ask him Who Tommy It's my Name

[@tomduerr6409]

Saw 7 shows 79/2022

Classic Pete solo maestro at its finest 🎉

[@billmay7364]

Always love PETE Doing Acoustic. Great Composer. Drowned in your Sweet Sweet Love. Loved his Album WHO CAME FIRST . EMPTY GLASS . SCOOP 1&2. Alot Acoustic which gets to the Root of his Genius.

[@thomasmyers3245]

Without a doubt the greatest rock and roll musician. Tommy and Quadrophenia is what i grew up with, not to mention every other song or album they made. Peter was the genius behind the band. I saw the Who twice in MSG in NY when Keith was still with us.

[@Yuri-iz3cd]

Excellent performance!! Real old rocker!!!

[@drothberg3]

Let’s put aside the masterpieces of songwriting for a moment. That is an absolute masterclass in making one acoustic guitar sound like a killer rock band.

[@philgowling2114]

42 years ago I borrowed Dad's double album "The Story of The Who" and have been hooked ever since. Pete is an amazing guy in many respects!

[@seuradu8065]

Rhythm. It’s a tough word.

[@ronschwolsky1626]

Wonderful selection of songs. Don’t think I’ve ever seen Pete play the Acid Queen solo before. After all these years, still my favorite.

[@WysteriaGuitar]

That Gibson J-200 sounds great!

Pete Townsend ist die Who, einfach der beste Sänger , Komponist und Musiker der Band. Keiner konnte dem je das Wasser reichen.

[@bobwhite137]

Did miss hearing, "Do YA!?" in Won't Get Fooled Again...

[@dezertfox3130]

Pete gives me goosebumps when I hear his music.

[@floydwaight5699]

Awesome. Going to finally see The Who this summer in Reno.Nv. I've missed seeing the Moon slapping skins. And I missed seeing ThunderFingers slapping the bass. But I won't miss Roger swing the Mic. And I will not miss seeing Pete windmilling his Led Paul. Great way to relive the past at 59yrs young... PeaceOrElse

[@martinallen6170]

I haven't seen reno for about 3o years honestly, he must be about 70 now, ask him if he still has his bike!

[@raymondchollet3199]

Somone mentioned his voice. As being shot. It is his passion that counts.

[@anthonyrichard8001]

[@GoldShower1]

HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ezktime7]

Is he playing the Gibson SJ200? is that a particular one ...they are expensive, about 5K at the lowest.

[@frisbeeshawn5356]

I know a girl in Kansas City MO this song relates to.

[@GoldShower1]

As Pete says, when 'ee 'sings 'is song they keep their original meaning, although the others add...........

[@townshendshean]

Why does the video cut off in the middle of "Won't Get Fooled Again"??? Makes me want smash things up!!!

[@watfordkev]

How do you play rhythm that fast????

[@emejopiallaaride849]

[@gatoryak7332]

Who cuts Pete's hair? What brand of shoelaces does he wear in concert?

[@clevelandcircle]

Dang 2.0

[@haraldh4507]

Ego ..aber genial Musik

[@moefoh96]

Pete is the other Roger voice.

[@jaysilverheals4445]

not exactly Roy Clark on the guitar but still good. but he croaked out at least some of the old words.

[@GoldShower1]

Farting on the left ?????

[@HIJOSBONICOS]

¡Que mal cantante era Roger Daltrey, por Dios!

[@BrungersBandRock]

His voice is shot, even more now

[@jefferygoodman9928]

@Brungers Band: Pete was sixty-six AND a half at the time. Maybe ur voice is the same as when u were in ur 20’s, 30’s, 40’s 50’s AND the first half of ur 60’s but I doubt that u’ve been singing for virtually ur entire adult life, not to mention his hearing problems from performing on stage in arenas and large stadiums with humongous banks of speakers. C’mon, show a little love and respect for his genius and what he’s meant to so many for so many years.

[@whofan1967]

That's what happens when you sing with passion for 50 years.

[@raymondchollet3199]

I agree that his voice is shot, but his passion and genious is there. Beatles, zep, who. The top three of my generation. And all the increadible others.✌✌

[@raymondchollet3199]

Still a giant.

[@raymondchollet3199]

Still has that rhythim style signature. The sound that put the who on the map. Pete was the who. Appreciating very big time fellow musicians

[@inger132]

Voice is terrible here....sounds like he gargled with cat litter

[@nancywelsh2837]

I pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday

If he was 500 years old he’d have more talent in his toe nail than you could muster in 500 life times. We need a retirement age for internet trolls.

[@christianlefebvre3021]

Certes la voix est fatiguée mais le génie est toujours là. Et surtout on se rend compte que la plupart des vedettes actuelles sont d'un niveau très très très inférieur à celui de Pete Townshend et des Who !!!

Easily the greatest rythm guitar player in rock history...unique blend of blues and Spanish flemenco.

Wrong! He acknowledged and conceded on recent BBC documentary that Bruce Welch was far better than he was.

[@Kishbank]

Bruce Welch is the very best!
