Pete Townshend now looks back on the album with great praise. "The music is the best music that I've ever written, I think and it's the best album that I will ever write."

If you complain you disappear
Just like the lesbians and queers
No one can love without the grac... MORE

Out of the 50 'Most Popular Tracks'...I am estimating that about 30 of those are remixes. Oh, here is the link if you wanna check it out http://hypem.com/popular Am I the only one that finds these remixes dreadfully dull? Seriously, they bore me TO TEARS! And it gets worse. It's one thing to have a thousand remixes of the... MORE

9:23 PM (PST) I'm watching The Who Rock Honors on VH1 now; it's about 20 minutes in and Incubus just covered "I Can See For Miles" and "I Can't Explain". Now I understand the whole premise of this concert and whatever, but there are definietly certain bands that shouldn't cover certain other bands. Incubus is one of them. to start, brandon boyd's vocals are already sub par, but jose antonio could barely keep up on drums with the rest of the band...oh well there's st... MORE

Yup, fellow mogger Vroomster and I attended an private show thrown by the makers of Rock Band that featured a "very special guest" as it said on the ticket. There were rumors of The Who playing but I didn't think that was possible. First I thought it would be someone playing a Who song on Rock Band. Then I thought maybe they will do a couple tunes. But after the first few tunes I knew this was going to go the distance. It was 2 1/2 hours of great Who songs. Lots of their... MORE
