Why?

Why, why would the Who - or, if we want to be really honest, the surviving half of the Who - decide to record a new, typically Townshend-esque, "mini-rock opera" album and go on a World Tour to support it?

“I don’t think I’ve ever looked forward to a tour as much as this one,” Townshend said. “Roger and I are both fit and well, ready to rock.”

No, no, no! They're fit - eating their veggies and getting twenty minutes of vigorous exercise a day, one's to presume - and well, ready to rock?

Why does Pete Townshend sound like he's your Uncle Larry getting back together with his old band, Jada Blade, to play some hard rockin' party tunes down at the Brickhouse? Why?

Live at Leeds rocks! Please, let that comprise our memories of the Who live! Please?!
