I saw The Who try to follow The Clash at Shea Stadium in 82'
It wasn't pretty ; )
I've seen The Who five times and The Clash once. I guess it could happen, but that sounds like a stretch. Although, if there was ever an uninspired period in Who history, that would be it. I'll have to take your word for it. Up until the late 80s, the only opener for the Who I didn't see get booed off the sage was Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul. It used to be a kind of tradition.
The only time I ever saw The Clash, they were fantastic, however. Even though the version I saw (May, 1984) wasn't the original lineup. Never saw all of The Who, either, as my first show was the Cincinnati show with Jones after Moonie died.
