The Who, My Generation

I liked this clip. It starts with the Who group joking around with the presenter. I'm nog offended, even at some moments I thought it was fun as well. Because they start really funny and relaxed I think it is more fun to watch. More fun and more relax. Because of the jokes made you are already paying attention with a big smile on your face. I think this is very fun and well done. The good thing is that when they start singing they are immediately again serious enough to play the song well and still get the crowed exited. In overall I liked the song, only when the lead singer makes some weird sounds in-between when he sings "generation" I don't like. I think it is unclear and the first couple of times you think he is making a mistake. Further the fact that they started breaking their instruments at the end of the song also didn't make any sense to me. I didn't think that it gave any extra's to the performance, I didn't got exited, I just thought it added nothing to the show.
In overal I did like it.

I didn't like this clip at all. When it started he was talking very soft and I couldn't understand everything clearly. Because of this he didn't get my attention at all. Finally he did got my attention when he really started to play the guitar very good. He even started to do tricks while playing his guitar. I think this was really cool, but I don't know why I still wasn't very interested. I think maybe because he is playing too long. Half way the clip I know that he can play the guitar really good, and I loose my attention.
This isn't really my type of clip and music. I do like good guitar solo's, but this one took way too long so it lost my attention completely.
Also here he had to break his guitar in the end, again I don't know why this is necessary.
I didn't really have a clear reaction, I just got annoyed at some point by the sound and in the beginning I was bored by his talk.
Of the two clips I liked the one from the Who's more because they started with grabbing my attention and I liked that song more.
