You're not wrong at all. When I assembled the band, though, I told them up front that it was going to be a Who coverband. I am the only one heavily into the Who. The others have grown to like the music a great deal. This is why we're doing better on stage right now. My original plan, however, was to include some random classic rock covers in the sets. I figured The Who threw a few in, why can't we? I firmly disagree with the nazi-esque definition of cover band you are using. What offended me about your statement was the tone of it (after ripping me a new asshole in the rest of your post). Can you at least admit that after all the time I have put in trying to get this band off the ground, I had the right to be a little offended at pot shot like that?

PS- You and I had a good relationship here for a damn long time until you got pissed at me for arguments with Mark and Kevin (mainly the latter). I would like to go back to that and put all this nonsense in the past.
