    FYI, tomorrow night on VH1 there is a program honoring the Who. I'm a massive Townsend fan...

    "Long live rock!"

    saw them with T-Bone Burnette and the clash in 1982. I believe that was their first of many final tours

    Damn! No VH1 here, unfortunately.

    Love the Who tho. The only song I don't like is Happy Jack, lol.

    A personal fav from Who Are You

    905

    Mother was an incubator
    Father was the contents
    of a test tube in the ice box
    In the factory of birth

    My name is 905,
    And I've just become alive
    I'm the newest populator
    Of the planet we call Earth

    In suspended animation
    My childhood passed me by
    If I speak without emotion
    Then you know the reason why

    Knowledge of the universe
    Was fed into my mind
    As my adolescent body
    Left its puberty behind

    And everything I know is what I need to know
    And everything I do's been done before
    Every sentence in my head
    Someone else has said
    At each end of my life is an open door

    Automatically defrosted
    When manhood came on time
    I became a man
    I left the "ice school" behind

    Now I'm to begin
    The life that I'm assigned
    A life that's been used before
    A thousand times

    I have a feeling deep inside
    That somethin' is missing
    It's a feeling in my soul
    And I can't help wishing

    That one day I'll discover
    That we're living a lie
    And I'll tell the whole world
    The reason why

    Well, until then, everything I know is what I need to know
    And everything I do's been done before
    Every sentence in my head
    Someone else has said
    At each end of my life is an open door

    I like The Who. My fav song is "You Better You Bet"

    Now my kids are aware of them because their song "Who Are You" is used for the opening of CSI
