One Poof to find them 
One Poof to bring them all 
And in the banners bind them 
In the land of the JC where the fan-boys lie.

Debo - in the Big Brother "Current Events" thread;
It's remarkable: with The Who, the bassist and drummer died while the guitarists survive; with The Beatles, the guitarists died and the bassist and drummer survive.


Can anyone say The Whootles Supergroup? grin

I saw The Who in concert a few years ago; they were amazing. John will be missed; he was a great one.

How awful. They're in a 3 way tie for my favorite band of all time. I was so excited to be seeing them for 2nd time this year. Now, I'm so depressed. How awful.

sad sad sad DarthNut,

I read the Yahoo article before coming here. I've only recently come to realize how spiffy The Who is. RIP John Entwistle.

There's a moderated guestbook at http://www.johnentwistle.com.

Methinks the moderator(s) will have quite the backlog of messages to approve...

AHHHH!!!! Tonight, we were just talking about going to see The Who when they come to Iowa -- and we were even singing all their songs. cry

I'm gonna go play "Boris the Spider" over and over and over. You will be missed, buddy...

You can feed all of the people some of the time
And lots of the people none of the time
But you can't feed none of the people 34% of the time.
That would be bad.

He was one of my favorite bassists in all of rock.

His song "My Wife" on Who's Next is incredible (and funny). His bass on "The Real Me" is devastating.

Here's to you John. sad

The best bassist ever to ever shake the foundations of the Hard Rock world. You will be missed, Ox.

I think I'll listen to Live At Leeds for a few hours now ...

Long Live The Who.

I got The Who - The Ultimate Collection, and will be listening to that all day, along with my Dad, who, I think, who pretty much all of their CD's....
