Well, s'cuse me if I'm really cynical about this, but I think it's a 
TERRIBLE idea.  The attempts made at Yes music was enough to make me hurl, 
and you'd think that Yes would translate a little easier than the Who.  
Frankly, I have a hard enough time with Tommy on B'way, much less a 
symphonic treatment of virtually anything the Who has done.  Imagine WGFA 
with violas instead of the synthesizer solo, or bassoons tearing into the 
solo from "I Can See For Miles"   %(

Hopefully, PT will put the kabosh on this travesty.

This would be worse than the Who On Ice - it would be the Who Six Feet 
Under.
