    I personally love The Who but to each their own.  Criticisms of their recent tours / live shows may be warranted but then again they are literally half the band they used to be.

    That's it. I'm not saying that Pete and Roger aren't great. They are vital ingredients, but how could The Who still be The Who after losing one of the best r'n'r drummers in history, and then losing one of the best bassists in history? How could it possibly be the same, or on par, or -gasp- better? It could not be. 

    I think that if half of a band's members are different, then the band should be touring under a different name. I realize that it's a branding/recognition thing, but it just ain't the same band.

    that's just it. people get all hung up on a name, when in reality, all a band name is, as you alluded to, is a way for people to know who is playing. 

    far more people would go to Burger King if it was still Burger King than if it was renamed That Whopper Place.

    This happened on 7/6.  Stayed until the end of the show, took train back to AirBNB, slept, woke up, took train to airport and plane to Amsterdam the next day.  Trains all over Holland and Amsterdam for 3 days.  Flight back to the UK on 7/10.  Take in Manchester and Liverpool over 2 days.  Train to London.  One night there.  Train to Heathrow.  Fly home on 7/14.

    Find out on 7/15 I destroyed it.  Told on 7/16 I need surgery. Opened up and have 10 screws put in on 7/18.
