It was an emotional night. Unlike a lot of the supergroups of the ’70s  touring today, acts like Ozzy, Deep Purple and Kiss, this actually is Peter Frampton’s farewell tour. Due to a disease caled Inclusion Body Myositis, also known as I.B.M., sadly, Frampton’s arena days are numbered.

As Frampton soaked in his MSG welcome, he felt a bit “verklempt” after an emotional video montage of his career highlights—appropriately shown during his hit song “Lines On My Face.”  With an overwhelming crowd response to hit after hit, it was evident that—even without a Jumbotron—Peter Frampton is larger than life.
