Well, all these guys are old, but there are few bands that could claim
such a rich catalog of material.
The Who on the SB was just what it was. But how ofter do we get to see
the Who on American TV? I enjoyed it... I'll gladly rub it in that I saw
the Who 13 times between 1967 and 1982. Wanna see keith moon's drum
sticks, I got 'em right here...
Maybe to put it in perspective. A few years ago we went to see the last
of the delta blues men, Honey Boy Edwards. He was nearing 90. Except for
the moment a few songs into the set when he thought they were telling
him to take a break, he was scary good. I felt the same about the Who. I
don't know of one contemporary band that would dare follow even that
abbreviated set..
