The Who

On February 17, 2013, The Who delivered a memorable performance of "Love Reign O'er Me" at the Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio. Just before this live recording, the band had released their first original studio album in over a decade, "Endless Wire," in 2006. This album marked their return to songwriting and reflected their resilience and relevance in an ever-evolving music landscape. By 2013, The Who was well-entrenched in their "Quadrophenia and Other Stories" tour, showcasing not just their enduring classics but also connecting generations of fans. Interestingly, during this era, they celebrated their legacy while still taking on the world stage with passion—the spirit of rock 'n' roll very much alive. Fans in the crowd were likely nostalgic, reliving the magic of their earlier years while also appreciating this powerful, emotive rendition of the song, which remains a quintessential part of their repertoire.
