What to play and how?



        There's a lot of talk about what the Who (or Who's Left, depending)
should perform, and how.
        I'm not going, so I really shouldn't be saying anything, but I'd
like to hear a hit or two - "Won't Get Fooled Again" in particular, with the
rumbling bass, Pete on an electric guitar, and the scream and everything.

        Good point.  Noise is an important part of the piece.

        Not among non-Who fans, it sure doesn't.  ("Quadro-what?")
