Quick Who Story

[Jason Hare <hare@acsu.buffalo.edu>]

Hi folks,

Just thought I would share semi-interesting story with you.

I'm 18.  I've only been a Who fan since I was 16.  That's when I started 
collecting and listening a lot.

However, I have been an actor for most of my life.  One summer I 
performed in a play entitled, "Who?".  I was 13 or 14.

The story of "Who?" was loosely based on the Cincinatti incident.  The 
story was a fictional recount of one of the kids who died in the 
stampede.  It followed his life and his adolescent troubles and how he 
only looked to The Who for salvation.  He has all sorts of psychological 
problems; his father died, his mother is numb, he wants to change his 
first name, all kinds of weird stuff...

I just thought it was interesting how 13-year old Jay opens the show with 
"My Generation" blasting through the speakers, windmilling a fake air 
guitar, having no clue as to why :-)  There is a whole scene recreating 
the stampeded and everything....the first lines are, "The Who.  I used to 
say I'd kill to see them.  But I never intended to be killed.  I was 
simply making use of hyperbole."  I wish I still had the script...

Isn't it funny how things eventually work out?  I just thought you might 
be interested in a little anecdote how everything comes back to "haunt" us...

Jay
