    The Who is such a boring band.

    No kidding!  I saw them in '68 when they tour for The Who Sell Out album.  Even with second row seat, I slept through the whole thing.  Utter waste of time.

    Also, I'm a big fat liar!
    I saw them in 2007 at Globen arena in Stockholm.

    A lot of older women holding glasses of cheap red wine and being unpleasantly drunk.

    WAY not the same band in 2007. 
    I noticed that when the spotlight was just in Pete and Roger. And the bass player and drummer back behind them in shadow. 

    As I remember it atleast. 

    They sold DVD's of every show on that tour though. Pretty cool. Pearl Jam did not follow suit sadly.

    I can't blame Pete and Roger wanting to carry on.  They do it because they love making music.  But when we talk about The Who, I don't even think of post-Moon Who as the same band.  And even more so post-Entwistle.  Keith and John were both essential to the heart and soul of The Who.  Everything after them was either a different band or a tribute band and I don't know much about all that.  I stop following the who after Who Are You (and even by then the band had for the most part lost most of it's appeal for many fans).

    He usually adds quotation marks when he does that.
