The Whô versus Yes

I remember going to the Charlton concert in 1974 and thinking (while they were playing) that, despite them being headliners and massively loud, and everyone around me in the crowd apparently loving their performance, that it was somehow a let-down.

You were at that show? No way! fwiw, they hadn't played live in months, and Townshend was dead drunk. In the footage, you can see him nearly fall over a few times. Few fans (or band members) regard that as a great show.

It's a pity that it's the only one of them in their heyday to be filmed.

There's also a March, 1973 show in Voorburg, Holland that was filmed in its entirety. It also happens to be a frustratingly off night, but with more peaks than Charlton.

I admit I haven't listened to the Who's full discography the way I have with Yes - I've only ever heard Who's Next, the radio hits, and some of Live at Leeds, but I've never heard what other people hear in them. They bore me, honestly.

Voted Yes

I feel like the greatest WHO experience would have been to have seen them live in '64-'65. All that talent yet I think they never reached their full potential.
This was close for me, but I listen to YES more.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Why the circumflex?

Same question

I think it has to do with the logo for the Who having an arrow pointing out the top of the O.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
