Jason,
I'm glad you quoted The Who. I think they're maybe the best band
ever, IMHO. I know many will disagree, but I really like them and have
luckily seen them twice. They're having a 50th anniversary tour this year,
but I can't imagine too many tours. But, if they're 90 and still touring,
that'd be great! Some younger people, though, have never even heard of
them or other bands from the 60s-80s.
