He started off very well, but you're right--he never got around to the 
music, or to the cooperative effort that makes it work.  You'd suspect he's 
one of those folks who think Pete is wasting his time dinking around with 
The Who.  The fact that Pete insists this should be popular entertainment 
provides half the charm, though.  How may bands would come up with half the 
screwy ideas?
