“This is something I will surely remember on my death bed.”
When The Who geared up to play a show in Cincinnati, Ohio, on Dec. 3, 1979, they never could have predicted the tragedy that would strike before they took the stage.
Most of the 18,348 tickets sold to the highly anticipated event were general admission, meaning seats were first-come, first-serve.“This is something I will surely remember on my death bed,” guitarist Pete Townshend told Cincinnati ABC affiliate station WCPO. “At 74, people are starting to die faster in my life now … I’ve only maybe got 20, 30, 40 people that I remember who’ve passed in my life I really care about, but you know, the 11 of Cincinnati are part of that number.
"It was like being just hit with a bat. We come off stage and we had done a wonderful show. It was a great show. One of the best we played on the tour. The crowd were incredible and then we were told what had happened before the show started. And that was like being whacked with a baseball bat around the head," Daltrey told WCPO."And I think we did the rest of the tour without talking to hardly anybody, in total silence. Hell, we hardly talked to each other.
