There is certainly some truth in that. In 1989, however, there was
quite a lot of publicity surrounding the tour and they had no new
album then, either. They were filling stadiums and I filled a
two-hour video tape with nothing but news stories and other publicity
off the television. I don't think a highly conceptualized
presentation like Quad is as appealing to the masses as another
greatest hits show (but I sure loved it), nor are The Who as likely to
draw "casual" rock fans are the Stones (just my opinion).
