80s at a small club in Berkeley.....

Although I wasn't a huge fan of their music, they were amazing. When they first took the stage, - I thought that they were miming to the record; that's how great the sound quality was. We felt embarassed that we were so bad in comparison. But Neil did use/borrow my amp... :-)

If you have a band like Radiohead, - who's drummer is mediocre to average, - the answer is "whatever." But you cannot replace a Keith Moon, a Neil Pert, a Stephen Morris, Mel Gaynor, or a Reni. (The Who are such a huge thing. It's my opinion that they could've just gotten away with calling themselves Entwistle/Daltry/Townsend, - especially now that it's just Daltry/Townsend).

Especially a drummer who either participates, or is a major factor in writing the music/song.

Cheers,

Good points, all - Duilawyer 05:44:43 01/24/07 (1)

Actually, not all of his points are good, much less sharply honed, but YMMV. - Audiophilander 23:26:36 01/24/07 (0)
