FW: Won't Get Fooled Again



Below is my letter to Mr. Lefsetz, the gentleman who did the emotional
review for Encore of The Who at The Concert for NY.
I'll keep you "posted" on how the discussion goes.

> Hi Bob,
> I've got a question for you.
> What were you thinking when you wrote "They <The Who> put out what many
> consider to be the best rock album EVER, "Who's Next", and then they
> didn't know what to do." ?
> I mean really, what were you thinking?  I was beginning to think you were
> a real fan of The Who, but then I tripped, stumbled and fell all over the
> above statement. 
> Here's a second question.  Does the album "Quadrophenia" mean anything to
> you?  Quadrophenia is considered by most Who fans to be the greatest album
> The Who ever made.  If making Quadrophenia is an example of what a band
> does when they "don't know what to do", then damn, let The Who be that
> clueless in the future.
> Bob, I could feel your belief in The Who Religion coming through loud and
> clear in your letter. Please, I beg you, give me some reason for what you
> wrote.  Apologize, say you were confused, say *you* didn't know what to
> do, say you were having a bad day, but say something that I can take back
> to Who legions to explain your blunderous error.  We want to keep you in
> the army, but you're making it very difficult....... hell, downright
> impossible with disrespecting Quad.
> Anxiously awaiting your thoughts.

> P.S. They did kick fucking ass, didn't they.  :-)
