I realise the band shut up shop for a bit but Kenney was actually signed
up as a 100% Who member which gave all members 25% each so when the Who
came back without Kenney I was quite surprised especially as he was an
official member - oh well, just curious.

I went to the new Hard Rock Cafe today in Manchester which is superb,
wall to wall 60's memorabilia which included a signed guitar from Pete
Townsend and one of Keith Moons jackets - ace! I also managed to get a
rare copy of the american magazine called 'creem' from 1977 which has a
great review of the Rough Mix album, i'll re-print it over this list if
anybody wants me too? let me know. I also bough the rough mix album
today and the Who's 'odds and sods' which I am listening to at the
moment and I think its brilliant, nice alternate takes, remixes etc.
