Chapter 4 - Tommy said, "Yes I can hear you"

Hey folks, still trying to be a good blogger. Being a good blogger means thinking of clever things to write. I didn't have anything, so I submit this to you. While driving home from work all week, of course I was blasting Sirius Radio, The WHO channel. Each day when I got to work, or got home, my throat was tired from singing WHO songs. I dont just sing them , I sing them !. Anyway, on my way home tonight, something occured to me. I have been a WHO fan for over 30 years, and have been singing these songs for over 30 years , or most of them at least. Pete has been touring for over 40 years, but nothing with regular frequency.

So this is what I submit... It occurred to me that I probably have sung most of the common, popular WHO songs, more than Pete and Roger. How can I make a claim like that? Simple.... I've been devoted to the WHO all that time, have always listened to them in my car on cassette , in my home on albums, cassettes, CD's and the radio. Not many days go by, that I dont hear a WHO song.. I faithfully sing each one, if I am able to.. By my math, I have sung them more than Pete and Roger. I bet all of you can say the same thing.

Now Rachel, well, she still has me beat, but it will even out eventually. I love her music as well, I bought her CD and listen to it and know the words. Of course I cannot sing as well as her, but I am catching up.

So Pete & Rachel - Think about what I am saying above.. you've not only created beautiful music, you've created a lifelong culture. Think about it...

Bloggers... who agree's with me, or disagrees??

Lets hope Rachel books another Attic Live show in NYC in Nov... I'll be there..

Love Ronzi

The idea has crossed my mind, too.

My biggest thrill was to sing the songs live with Pete and Roger, all the while looking into their eyes...
