I don't think any Who members ever performed musically on SNL.
In 1975 or 1976 Entwistle (more specifically, John Entwistle's Ox) were
scheduled to appear as special musical guests on SNL. I wasted many SNs that
year at home in front of the tube awaiting a performance which was never
realized.
A retrospective on SNL was published recently which listed all of their musical
guests through the years, no Who members were included.
If I remember correctly, there is a skit in TKAA or some other retrospective
which featured Steve Martin as the manager of a hotel for Rock Stars, with Keith
Moon as a "typical guest"...this probably came from SNL, someone out there must
know.
