THIS WEEK: The Who – ‘Boris the Spider’ at Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto.
17th December 1982.
ABOUT THIS SONG:
This was the first Who song written by their bass player, John Entwistle. Pete Townshend ordered him to write a song for their second album. Entwistle was afraid of spiders as a kid. He wrote this about seeing a spider crawling from the ceiling and squishing it.He wrote it as a joke, but it became a concert favorite. This was the only song from the album that they continued to play live. (songfacts.com)
TUNE IN SATURDAY 10/31, 9-11 PM, TO ‘LIVE IN CONCERT’ :
It’s The Who- headlining this weekend’s Live in Concert!
This weekend, we’re going back to the fall of 1982 for a legendary performance by rock legends The Who! After releasing their It’s Hard album, The Who set out on a 3 month North American tour, with a total of 42 shows. At the time, the band announced it would be their final tour. Of course, thankfully, that wasn’t the case. We’ll hear a show captured live at Shea Stadium in New York. It was October 12th, 1982.
