I saw the 25 Year Anniversary show at Giants Stadium - the least Who-ey show ever.

I saw them on that tour in London when they played with about 15 backing musicians due to Townshends tinnitus or as it is also known as The a Who on ice tour....Wasn't great.

They we're pretty good when in 2000 they strippied it back to just four with Zak Starkey on drums and it was around then with Entwistle's final gig they were outstanding at The Concert for New York in 2001.....The last truly great Who gig. 

Incidentally has there ever been a better rock death than Entwistle's , a heart attack in th Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas with two hookers and a line of cock....And he was the boring one.

Didnt his wife make some comment about ‘that’s him’ or ‘that’s the way I knew he’d go’?

Got a text from O2 about that. Might see if there is a ticket available on the day. I've heard they are very good. 

I'll be the middle age bloke, bald, with an ale gut dancing awkwardly and looking like I'm reliving a long lost youth and a joyous life ruined by that bastard thing, the vagina. 

 

I'll be dead easy to spot for sure.

Not the way I’d like to go out personally.

If it's Q I wouldn't bother, it'll be a load of rehashed stories & pictures with the wrong dates at the bottom.

 

The new book about Peter Grant (Bring it on Home) is meant to be really good though, not read it myself yet.

The reviews of that on Amazon are very good, I'm surprised nobody has ever made a film regarding Grant deffo not the sort of bloke you want to get on the wrong side of. 

I've read one of his other books on The Who ...Pretend You're In a War The Who and The Sixties which is excellent
