Re: The Who Mailing List Digest V10 #290
Ok I do have to agree with those people that said the 2002 tour wasn't the
same without John - that is obvious. But I saw them 3 times for Quad and in 2000
and was lucky enough to meet John in 1998. I still enjoyed the 2002 tour -
not as much of course but it was still awesome to be able to watch Pete and
Roger have a great time and still play pretty damn awesome. Granted I was sad to
see the tribute to John and not hear that fantastic bass solo in 5:15. And all
I can say is thank god for Zak because he is so close to being Moon - without
the craziness of course.
But I do understand those who don't want to be disappointed because it is sad
to see someone else standing in John's place. However, I agree that you will
miss out on great opportunities if you are always afraid of being
disappointed. I respect Rog and Pete for going on because that is probably what John and
Keith would want. And I am praying they keep touring in the future and maybe
make some new music. As for the name thing - I say do what Page and Plant did.
Tour under Daltrey and Townsend.
