Roger and Pete in Madrid

 I suppose I should have expected some discourse in Who chatrooms and
Blogs about my recent diary postings, but NME and Rolling Stone?
It's Lebanon and Israel who are "at war" - not Roger and Pete.
Roger and I are in full accord about our lack of accord. Always have
been.
One matter we will agree on.
Tonight we played the best show of our entire NEW career, our first ever
show in Spain, at the Olympic Hall in Madrid. The crowd were
spectacular. Beyond that, they were the most familiar with our music of
any crowd we have ever played to.
This is not the old Who. We never said it would be. It is something
else. It matters. The music came alive tonight in the actions and voices
of the audience.
I can't wait to come back to Madrid and play again. I think on this too
Roger and I will agree.
