Review: The Who were reborn in 2000. I went to their 1st gig in North America in Chicago thinking it would be "The Who on Ice" like the lame 1989 tour was. Quite the contrary. Ripping into the 1st chords of I Can't Explain, Townshend regained his fire, fury, and determination on stage. The Who reclaimed its title as the greatest live band in the world (in my opinion, the adjective "live" has never been necessary).This video captures The Who at their finest, except that, as noted by another, the editor has ADD, and we can't get an extended, focused look at anyone in the band. There are times when we catch a glimpse of Townshend attacking his guitar in a brilliant solo, yet the camera inexplicably shifts to Rabbit Bundrick twiddling his fingers. It is quite humorous to watch Townshend et al. rehearse with Bryan Adams and try to coach him on the lyrics of Behind Blue Eyes, which he can't seem to get right (but my dreams they AREN'T as empty) and then watch Pete roll his eyes and begrudgingly acknowledge Adams the idiot on stage at Royal Albert Hall. Great Video - but the video director needs a shot of ritalin.
