Oh, no.  It's good.  You get to hear Pete solo achieve the sound of The Who. 
  You know, wham, wham.  :)  And then his guitar sort of howls underneath 
and the piano chords come crashing down.  Great stuff.

Aha!  A transfer of consciousness?  It's curious how Pete goes about 
"writing for Roger's voice."  Since he's talked about channeling in the 
Sadlers Wells press conference, do you suppose it's Roger he's channeling?
