Where you getting that from?
I listened to the mediafile from Pete's site last night, and really couldn't
hear Pino except in a few cases where the overall volume was low.
Am I missing something?

I'm taking Rabbit's word for it, since he has been along for the entire ride
and is a real insider. ha. Did you read the post Scott sent us guys with
Rabbit's review in it? That is a must read.
That quote from Pete was from the Oct 5 diary during the 2000 tour in
response to negative NY Post and London NME articles criticizing them for
regurgitating the past. He started it by saying in his first paragraph: "I've been
waiting for the inevitable truth- that the critics are not happy AT ALL that we are
alive and packing arenas." Of course this was not long after he himself
found out the The Who were still packing a punch. He still had doubts about it and
so did Roger. I think they are getting convinced that they are still good at
what they do even at their age, so they are making hay while the sun is still
shining. And we get to enjoy it or not.
