Slideshow: The Who at the Verizon Center
Posted by Ted Scheinman on Nov. 9, 2008, at 11:28 pm
Pete Townshend didn’t duck-walk on Monday night. He didn’t curse, or smash his guitar, or clock Abbie Hoffman in the back of the head. In fact, he didn’t do anything of which your mother wouldn’t approve.
Which isn’t to say that the Who in its current incarnation lacks vim, vigor, or even cheek…just that the guys who came to prominence as purveyors of auto-destructive art now seem more intent on self-preservation.
