The Who

In December 1982, The Who were in a fascinating phase of their career, promoting their album "It's Hard," which had been released just a few months earlier, in September of that year. "It's Hard" marked a significant moment for the band, as it was their first studio album since the tragic passing of drummer Keith Moon in 1978. The live performance at the Checkerdome in St. Louis showcased the band's resilience, delivering a mix of new tracks like "Eminence Front" and classic hits like "Baba O'Riley." What's captivating is how the band managed to adapt their sound post-Moon, still thrilling audiences with their energetic performances while continuing to write compelling music, even in challenging circumstances. This concert is a testament to the enduring spirit of The Who—pushing forward and creating electrifying moments, reminding fans why they were one of rock’s greats.
