New York 1967

Got this add from jhc. He writes about the show in New York, 08-07-1967. I’m adding this to this blog, because he can’t confirm his writing.

i recall several fans sitting on the edge of the stage-those first 5? (maybe more) rows were also cheaper, like general admission or something. anyway one girl in particular was pestering Townsend and he trashed his guitar over her head!! I also recall seeing her retch shortly after. it’s been years since i’ve heard from the folks who went to the show with me, so I can’t confirm.still, it’s interesting if true. eyewitnesses are notoriously unreliable..

Does anyone know this girl?

Minor changes

Sometimes I believe that I never finish work on the Guide. Everyday I find some small bugs or I have to change things because I’ve got some new ideas. Tonight I changed the Concert-Detail page a little bit, removing a bug with the pictures and removing the link to tapes. You find a tapes listed, but you don’t get details about the songs or anything else.

I get many, many mails from people asking where they could buy tapes from a show. I don’t sell tapes or anything else. The only way to get Who-live-music is via www.longliverock.org or via www.themusic.com. Both sites are absolutely perfect!

I also had to add a new data-field to the newspapers. I’m in danger getting trouble because of the copyright law in Germany. A few months ago a girl from an German online-magazine had sent me an E-Mail with a link to their review about the show in Ulm in 2006, and now she wrote, I would be stealing her review. I’m not stealing reviews (you always find a source etc.), but I took the review off and removed many reviews from German newspapers. I’m now preparing sending mails to all the newspapers asking for permission.

Let’s hope Roger is ok!

Southampton, City Hall 1971

Joe is sure that he saw The Who in Southampton 1971:

They DEFINITELY played at Southampton City Hall late in 1971. I was at College there and went to the show. I don’t see it anywhere. I think it was in August or September. Could you let me know if you can find anything out.

Any info is welcome.
