My favourite moments of The Who's #teenagecancergigs: 3) "You're ALL forgiven!" (maybe for not buying enough singles to give Pete a No 1)
My favourite moments of The Who's #teenagecancergigs last night: 2) The Bert & Ernie-ish between-song backchat between Pete and Rog.
My favourite moments of The Who's #teenagecancergigs last night: 1) Rog's harmonica, particularly the segue into Stone Fox Chase
& Norman Watt-Roy - sensational. RT @ladygeeke Wilko was worth the price of admission tonight. What a rock'n'roll legend. #teenagecancergigs
