Re: wild speculation/Quadrophenia 2



I don't think anyone's mentioned this yet - but before the shows at Wembley 
& London Arena started there was an interview with Roger shown on the 
screens - it was filmed during the week of the MSG shows.
When asked about possible future projects he said they had strongly 
considered Quadrophenia 2 - what happens to Jimmy as he moves on in life.
This sounds very possible as Roger has also commented before on how 
important Who music was to their youth,and now he'd like to involve these 
people as adults and the problems faced by 30/40somethings.

Lets just pray that  any new work is Who work and not a broadway show or 
another Vegas-Who-30-people-onstage-thing.

for a new album will it be a collection of songs or a Tommy/Quad/lifehouse 
style concept album...?

hmmm...
