Oh the Guilt

I just got an email that The Who are touring this fall in the US.  There's no reason to go.  Moon and Entwistle are dead.  The new record was okay but not great.  Townshend doesn't seem interested in playing any lead that doesn't involve abuse of the tremolo bar or a lot of pull-offs to open strings.  And their new video isn't so great either.

Fuck, I know I'll go anyway.  Townshend is my only hero.

What is wrong with me?

That's the prog rock purist part of the Misanthrope talking. Of course you have to go. It's no diff from when I would deny my affinity for Kiss and would slag them in HS because I had "moved on". Why deny yourself? Come out of the idolitry closet and indulge, the rest of us have.

There's nothing wrong with you. You're a fan. It's okay.
