Yeah yeah...another of my...'go on listen to it' stuff.

If it's... F- off Ali you're p*ssed agian...maybe you aint too far wrong ;)

But I ain't gonna apologise THIS IS THE WHO!

DALTRY IS 74. (Say again 74 years old)

Who (ha ha) of us on here is gonna perform like this at his age?

There's some 'meh' stuff on here but also some 'Jesus this is F- great' stuff....
Zac Starkey is absolutely awesome and when you do get a camera shot of him he's (intentionally or not) adopting a Moon mannerism.

I most recently saw them about a year ago and they were bouncing around like a pair of twenty somethings

It's just so fabulously rock and roll that a pair of icons like this still want to get out on the road and bring music to the fans, and seem so delighted to be doing so

:ugeek:

I’d never really ‘got’ daltrey as a frontman - I’d always thought that Pete could do it on his own. But then I saw them love and I really, really ‘got’ it. He’s fucking brilliant.

Like AC/DC, the sideman as frontman.

I've never got them at all, but Who's Next is a great album.
However. One of my favourite quotes of all time comes from Entwistle. When asked, by some twat from The NME why they'd gone heavy metal, he replied thus...

"Heavy metal is like farting. I like smelling my own farts, but I wouldn't like to smell anyone else's".
