Saturday 17 March 2012 - 19:00

We are a hard working live tribute to The Who, and capture a magical point in time when The Who were the greatest live rock n roll band around. Our live show aims to recreate this period in the 1970's with an explosive live sound and stage act, plus authentic stage wear and instruments. The result is a time capsule ride back to the days of Live at Leeds and The Isle of Wight Festival, with a selection of early hits and 70s stadium classics.
