Thanks Lefty and Gazza for the video link ~ that was an incredibly insane mob scene and the best part is watching BRIAN laugh about it! Histerical! That was wild!

eight years ago today we lost the OX..............




On top of the sky is a place where you go if you've done nothing wrong,
If you've done nothing wrong.

And down in the ground is a place where you go if you've been a bad boy,
If you've been a bad boy.

Why can't we have eternal life,
And never die,
Never die?

In the place up above you grow feather wings and you fly round and round,
With a harp singing hymns.

And down in the ground you grow horns and a tail and you carry a fork,
And moan and wail.

Why can't we have eternal life, And never die,

Never die?

My favorite Entwistle song. One I relate to a great deal:

Everybody calls me the quiet one
You can see but you can't hear me
Everybody calls me the quiet one
You can try but you can't get near me
I ain't never had the gift of gab
But I can't talk with my eyes
When words fail me you won't nail me
My eyes can tell you lies

Still waters run deep so be careful I don't drown you
You've got nothing to hear I've got nothing to say
Sticks and stones may break your bones
But names can never down you
It only takes two words to blow you away

Everybody calls me the quiet one
But you just don't understand
You can't listen you won't hear me
With your head stuck in the sand
I ain't never had time for words that don't rhyme
My headd is in a cloud
I ain't quiet - everybody else is too loud

Still waters run deep so be careful I don't drown you
You've got nothing to hear I've got nothing to say
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But names can never down you
It only takes two words to blow you away.

The Who Eyeing Spring 2011 'Quadrophenia' Tour

by Gary Graff  |  July 06, 2010

...

The Who are hoping to hit the road again in 2011, with "a new show," according to singer Roger Daltrey, or possibly a retooled stage presentation of the group's 1973 rock opera "Quadrophenia."

"We're just working out what to do next," Daltrey tells Billboard.com. "We've got ideas...We're looking on probably being out there, hopefully if all goes well, in the spring of next year...We definitely don't want to stop. We feel it's the role of the artist to go all the way through life 'til you can't do it anymore."

Daltrey does acknowledge, however, that "there's a few things to get around -- primarily guitarist and composer Pete Townshend's continuing battle with severe Tinnitus. Daltrey says that "it's nothing that can't be sorted out -- just different monitor systems, different on-stage volume, which is where the issue is. Pete being the addictive character he is, if he gets carried away he tends to turn his volume up to the old levels, and that's when it causes the trouble. That's one of the problems with rock 'n' roll, once the old adrenaline kicks in."

Daltrey, who's been doing solo dates as a headliner and opening for Eric Clapton while The Who is off the road,  says he's not sure about the progress of Townshend's new musical "Floss" -- "That's not my bag, that's Pete." -- but is always hopeful for new material to sing. "He writes, and then we decide what to do," Daltrey explains. "One of the reasons I'm doing this (touring) is so if he ever does write anything significant or anything he needs me to sing, I've got a voice to do it. I've dedicated my life to being the voice of his music. I'm happy with that position. I feel I've done a good job for him."

As for taking "Quadrophenia" -- which The Who performed as part of the Teenage Cancer Trust benefits on March 30 in London -- back out on the road, Daltrey says that "there are issues with it to make it work at our age. I'm 16 years older than when we last did it, and I always had a bit of a problem, as far as the crowd was concerned, with the way we were presenting that show, the way our position within the piece was explained. For the newcomers it was narratively a bit of a puzzle, what Pete and I were to this guy on the screen. It needs a revamp. It would be dated to put it out as it is now. We need to fix that area, but I know how to do it."

While he's waiting for The Who's next move, Daltrey is also supporting the launch of a Teenage Cancer Trust in the U.S. He reports that UCLA has recently signed on to be one of the organization's medical center, and he predicts that "the way America is with philanthropy, I think you'll get it done a lot quicker than (the U.K.) did, once people are aware of the issue."

Roger Daltrey Planning Who Tour, New Collaborations
‘I’ve always wanted to do something with Jimmy Page,” Daltrey says. ‘Mainly because, what the hell is he doing? What an amazing waste of a talent.’

In an audio interview posted on the band's website (and linked to by Consequence of Sound), Roger Daltrey reveals that the Who are contemplating a tour next year. "We're in the planning stages — but we do plan on doing something," says Daltrey. "I can't really talk about the specifics yet, but it will be based on our past work." Earlier this year the Who played Quadrophenia in its entirety at the Royal Albert Hall, and Daltrey says that more shows are possible. "I would like to be on the road playing as many different kinds of show as we possibly could. Maybe we'll do Quadrophenia one night and the greatest hits the next night. Maybe Tommy, too, if I can still sing it. The audience would have to take a chance on what show they're going to get."

The Greatest Singers of All Time

The Who toured Quadrophenia in 1996 and 1997, but Daltrey says these shows would be different. "It would be the same musically, but stylistically we'd try and update it and make it a little more coherent to a newcomer to the piece," he says. "We're sixteen years older now. A lot of the energy and the macho stuff I could bring to it then I don't have anymore." Any tour would have to get the green light from Pete Townshend, who meets with Daltrey three of four times a year to discuss future projects. "He's incredible adventurous when it comes to projects and new ideas and things," says Daltrey. "When it comes to getting out there and doing it I'm more adventurous than he is. I'd like to get the boat out more than him ... He is writing [a new album] and you never know when that might turn up." If Pete decides to not tour next year, Daltrey says he'll tour Europe with his solo band. "I can't retire," he says. "I've gotta do something. If the band aren't out there, I'll be out there with my little band."

Front Row at the Hottest Live Shows

Daltrey is also interested in working with other guitarists. "I've always wanted to do something with Jimmy Page," he says. "Mainly because, what the hell is he doing? What an amazing waste of a talent. He's a genius." Daltrey opened for Clapton on a handful of U.S. dates last year, and says he'd also like to work with him. "It would be very difficult for us to work together [onstage] because he's doing a very laid back blues show," says Daltrey. "I said to him 'it would be very interesting if we could find some songs that could dig a big deeper.' I think he needs a bit of driving, does Eric. That blues stuff is alright, but you need dynamic. Never forget dynamic. I think we could do interesting things." Daltrey said he was meeting with a guitarist later in the day to discuss a collaboration. "We're talking about maybe doing a blues album just for the fun of it and to revisit our early days," he says. "I don't want to say his name in case it doesn't happen, but he's got a band and I'll literally chose some songs from [The Who's early] period and get in there and do an album and put it out on the Internet."
