The Who
The Who Full Concert Live in Miami, FL featuring I Can't Explain, Substitute, My Wife and more
In August 1976, The Who was riding high on the success of their album *The Who by Numbers*, released just the year before. That album featured hits like "Squeeze Box" and "Slip Kid," showcasing their knack for blending rock with more introspective lyrics—a shift reflecting their transitional phase as a band. By the time they played live in Miami, they were deep into their arena rock phase, bringing an electrifying performance to the audience at Miami Stadium. Interestingly, during this era, the band was renowned not just for their music but also for their exuberant live shows, often characterized by Pete Townshend's windmill guitar playing and Roger Daltrey’s powerhouse vocals. And talk about energy! The setlist that night included classics like "Baba O'Riley" and "Substitute," proving their repertoire was as robust as ever. This performance was a testament to their continuing evolution and enduring appeal during one of rock's most vibrant decades.
