My mum saw The Who way back in the 60’s and I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for the band, so today was a great opportunity to check out these Mod Rock legends once and for all. It turns out that the Gods had been kind to us this afternoon and had dished us up a serving of some lovely warm weather, with a side order of occasional blustery wind.
I had never been to the ground before, so when this gig was announced, it was a great opportunity to check out the place.

Those were the hot topics leading up to The Who’s grand appearance at Hove’s very own 1st Central County Cricket Ground. We spent the weeks leading up to this monumental event, checking our weather apps, hoping that this concert wasn’t going to be a wash out.
