NAME: Jason Hare
AGE (optional!): 24
CITY YOU LIVE IN:  New York, NY

*HERE COME THE DIFFICULT QUESTIONS! - 
FAVORITE WHO ALBUM(S) : Who's Last (kidding!).  Who's Next, Quad and Leeds
FAVORITE WHO SINGLE :  Won't Get Fooled Again 
FAVORITE WHO MOVIE : The Kids Are Alright 
FAVORITE WHO-RELATED BOOK : Maximum R & B/Concert File 
FAVORITE WHO MEMBER : Pete 
FAVORITE BANDS BESIDES THE WHO: Billy Joel, Indigo Girls, Barenaked Ladies, Moxy Fruvous, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Queen 
FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE:  Who: Quad at MSG, 7/17/96- my first time seeing the Who.  Seeing the three of them together up there, and then a fully accurate recreation of "Quadrophenia" and "The Rock-" blew my mind.

Solo: Pete at Supper Club, 5/4/96.  I was living in Buffalo- 430 miles away from NYC- and was a freshman at college.  I wanted to go see Pete but wasn't sure I could afford it, I wasn't too excited about taking the train for 8 hours, and for various reasons, my parents would have killed me if they knew I was coming home without seeing them.  A friend had a ticket, but I declined.  After seeing Pete on Conan a night or two before, I phoned up my friend in the middle of the night and told him to hold the ticket.  I arrived in the city the next day- and a water valve had broken in midtown and the city was literally FLOODED.  All I had with me was a backpack with a toothbrush and a change of boxers.  Everyone was huddled on the inside of street corners, too freaked to go into the water.  Knowing that the Supper Club was a general admission show, I went through the water anyway, soaking my brand new shoes, socks and jeans up to my knees.  I watched the whole show from the front row balcony, completely soaked.  It was amazing...especially when Pete broke into "Pure and Easy" for one line during "Three Steps to Heaven."
