I no longer regularly read Lefsetz, generally regarding him as a
self-involved blowhard. In this particular case, though, I think he is
pretty much on the mark. Enough of the greatest-hits medleys from dinosaur
acts trudged out at half-time. Can anybody who has seen or listened to Live
at Leeds seriously tell me that the Sunday night half-time show in Miami
really featured "The Who"?
