	No kidding.  In the press, it seems Entwistle has been portrayed as 
maybe a session player at best.  When the DST band was on the Tonight 
Show, did JE get called to the desk to talk to Jay after the number?  Nope, 
just Roger.  I wish somebody would give the guy the respect he deserves.  
He was just as much a part of the band as the other three, but it 
seems like the people on this list are the only ones who know it.  Maybe JE 
doesn't want the attention but I doubt that he goes around telling 
people, "print my name last or not all please," which is the way I've 
always seen it.  I find it all very frustrating.
