i think its a strain on it.  Roger is exhausted.  the songs he sings every 
concert the all he puts into gets to be a strain on the voice.  i saw him at 
Jones Beach he was fantastic.  hey its The Who. never be a group like it 
ever.  they deserve  a nice long holiday.  to finish greiving for John and 
getting their lifes back on track again.  i'm sure we will hear more from The 
Who in the future.  :)
