    We ran into them at their hotel.Yes, a Holiday Inn, contrary to legend and Pete’s book.Pete invited us up to his room after the show. Pete, John and Keith were there along with Bob Pridden. Pete wore the same shirt as on the cover of Whos Next.Pete and Keith jitterbugged to At the Hop.When security called the room because of the noise Keith told them it was the man in the next room, he waas a maniac and Keith was afraid to venture out. This went on three times, with Keith threatening to call the police if they didn’t do something. The gathering eventually petered out,!and I will always treasure the memory of two hours with them in a Holiday Inn!

    I was visiting a college girlfriend in the Twin Cities area and we went to this show. It was fantastic – right up there in best Who shows I saw with Merriweather Post Pavilion in MD in ’70 and the Winterland in SF in 76. At the end Pete smashed his guitar. We were down close to the stage and pieces went flying into the crowd. I dived for one and for years kept a piece of the plastic pickguard.
