    If I only listened to music by people who shared my morals or values I'd probably be left with one Moby album or something :roll:
    an equally sickening thought!

    Favourite Who song?

    It'll have to be "The Real Me", though I prefer W.A.S.P.'s cover version, as it has a bit more b*llocks (if that's blasphemy or not, I'll let you decide).




    otherwise it's a choice between "Won't get fooled again" and "5:15"

    5.15 is another classic.
    I also like the 'Who are you' album but a lot of fans don't seem to like it much.

    Keith Moon's biography (Dear Boy... by Tony Fletcher) is one of the best music bios I've ever read. It's huge and a great read. Quite depressing in places though.

    I read that a couple of years ago, it took me a while to get through it as it was about 400 pages long but went into his life in great detail, i'll never understand why he downed all those pills though......why?

    I've got 'The Who at the BBC' which is quite interesting to hear.
