Doors

[Frate, Chris (Indust, PTL)]

I wouldn't mind if all TV shows and commercials featured Who music. It
gives me a boost no matter where I hear it. When Paul O'Neil played for
the Yankees I used to think he was the whiniest baby in baseball, UNTIL
I saw him walking up to bat to the strains of Baba O'Riley. I then
figured he must not be all that bad...even if he was a stinkin' Yankee.

Sorry to hear that.  However, Pete has discussed his reasons for selling
the songs for use that way.  Because classic rock bands don't get prime
time radio play any longer, it's necessary to find other means for
exposure and revenue.  There's never been any better promotion for The
Who than CSI.
