We Got A Hit Venue: The Roundhouse, London, UK, Sunday, October 29 2006 Recording: BBC Radio 2 Broadcast Comments: BBC's Electric Proms sees The Who's one-off at the London Round- house. Though the show date was October 29th, it didn't air on BBC Radio 2 until November 4, 2006. Apparently there is also a DVD of the show that either has been or will be released. "Johnnie Walker introduces The Who to a crowd that can barely believe they're about to witness one of the best live bands of the last forty years in the beautiful and in- timate surroundings of The Roundhouse. The band proved to rattle off hit after hit as well as performing in the world premiere of their brand new mini opera Wire & Glass. "Baba O' Riley" really get the crowd in the party mood while Zak Starkey performs brilliantly on a Keith Moon esque double drum kit.Daltrey spins himself and his mic around on a wondeful "Pinball Wizard" while Townshend proves he still cut the mus- tard with some fantastic guitar playing on "see me feel me" By the end it's clear this is more than just a gig. It's a musical extravaganza that provides a fitting finale to the inaugural BBC Electric Proms." 1. I Can't Explain 2. The Seeker 3. Who Are You 4. Fragments 5. Sound Round 6. Pick Up The Peace 7.
