Re: Green Day does a Who tribute?!?
Dan, re:
>>> So, is Green Day paying The Who a tribute (IMHO, I think not), or were
they making fun...[?]
I don't know for a fact, but I suspect it was a tribute in a positive
light. I'm not a huge Green Day fan (actually, I think they are pretty funny
to watch, and the music is okay, but the amount of airplay doesn't help), but
I remember seeing Billy Joe on an interview once. His attitude about the
audience was, in general, that they are "really thick" (my quotes, not his).
I think Townshend says just about the same thing about the Who's
audience in an early clip in TKAA. Kind of an interesting parallel.
