The Who: Live in Philly

Adam and I have always been HUGE fans of classic rock, so when The Who were coming close to town, we were ALL about getting tickets and venturing up to Philly for the day. I went to nursing school in Philly while Adam completed his final year at Juniata, so Philly is quite nostalgic for us. It is where our relationship, albeit long distance, grew and blossomed into this wonderful life that we lead. We spent the afternoon wandering the streets around my old apartment, enjoying dinner and drinks at one of our favorite pubs, and venturing over to Reading Terminal Market. Reading Terminal is an AWESOME and huge indoor market of fresh produce, butchers, bakers, spice markets, food vendors, craft dairy products, etc, etc, etc. It was amazing to see how much it has changed since I moved away 7 years ago, yet how much it has remained the same.

Some of the earliest ones there! So excited!

Getting their ROCK on!

The best picture that I could manage

I cannot even begin to put into words how FANTASTIC this show was. They may be really old, but their music is still great, they are true performers at heart and put on a good show, the crowd was fun, and we had the most amazing of times. If you ever get the chance to see them live, even if you aren't the biggest fan of The Who (but how could you not be?!?!?!), I highly recommend you seize the opportunity to snag some tickets, you will not be disappointed!
