Hello from Little Rock everyone. I’m over here taking care of my mother, who is sick… I’ll probably return to Memphis tomorrow night, as I have some business I need to tend to Saturday.
On the way over here, I heard something interesting on the radio. The Who will play a show at North Little Rock’s Alltel Arena two weeks from today. Wow… never thought they’d tour again. Of course, it’s only Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey – the other two founding members have passed away. They have a supporting band including John “Rabbit” Bundrick, who played keyboards with the band for the last several years before they split up in the early ’80s; and drummer Zak Starkey, who is Ringo Starr’s son.
Hard to believe it’s been 42 years since they released “My Generation,” one of the all-time rock classics. And, it’s been 38 years since they released Tommy, probably the most successful rock opera ever.
