Best thing about the Who at the Super Bowl

The mod target cymbals on the drum kit played by Zak Starkey, Ringo's son. Also, that Zak Starkey looks like a lost drummer for Spinal Tap.



Some friends complained that Roger Daltrey looked old, hardly able to stomp around the stage, but hey, the guy is nearly 65, he's lucky he made it through the show at all. It was absurd to hear them going on about Teenage Wastelands, that is for sure. Thankfully they had the good sense not to indicate they hope they die before they get old.

I also thought that the drummer looked like someone from Spinal Tap! I even said it aloud at my very intimate Superbowl soiree: "He looks like he belonged in Spinal Tap." I thought Daltry looked pretty great - sexay, narrow hips at 65, come on! Pete Townsend looked weird to me, kind of bloated and shiny. They sounded pretty good for their age.
