During the 1989 Who tour I was piss-poor student in St. Louis.  That same
summer the Stones were on tour as well, and they came to St. Louis a week
or so after the Who.  Anyway, I was dating a woman at the time, and one
night when we were set to go out I scored, through a miracle, two tickets
the The Who's show that night.  When I asked her if she wanted to come to
the concert with me, she said, "Now wait, is that the group with the guy
with the big nose, or is it the group with the guy with the big lips?" 

We didn't go to the show.  And I quit seeing her shortly thereafter.
