UCLA's Pauley Pavilion.
It's just a cell phone picture, so sorry for the quality. We were about 75 ft. from Pete, about 20 feet above.
What a night!
Pete was very put out by sound problems on his side. After quite a bit of gesturing to the side, at about 2/3 thru of "You Better You Better...." He cut from the song, frustratingly fiddles with the amps, then signals "no more". They then proceded to fix the things that needed fixing. The magic of TV editing will then likely happen, and you will see them do the song a second time. Pete was a blast, Roger was pristine! The rest of the band as we now know them, were all great! Even Rabbit was there, Zak & Simon too.
The Foo Fighters are incredible. Incubus played I Can See For Miles...YES! The Flaming Lips, Jack Black, etc. etc. I enjoyed so much of the whole show! My daughter, Michelle, was very struck as well. We saw the guy from X-Files speak, Adam Sandler played a ditty, Sean Penn spoke, etc. etc. You will see.
Great job to all!
There was mention of another "cable channel" that "sold out". Even though THE WHO SELL OUT was mentioned, it was also added that THE WHO never really sold out. Thanks to VH1 for not going the way of M-T-....rhymes with "scree".
Watch the show when it comes.

Oh you lucky boy! I don't have cable TV at home, so won't even get to see it second hand. Just as well I have you to keep me posted Dan.
Glad you and Michelle had a great time.
