Bah - anyone can watch Quadrophenia (sp?) - I'm too young to really remember although my brother-in-law still rides a classic Vespa and goes to scooter rallies trying to re-live his youth

Probably listen to a lot of Who and Beatles music and ride a scooter.

Yeah, well, guess that is all true. Had not expecte there to be a lot of Who fans, thinking most would be pretty young here.... my bad I guess.
Not that I like Quadrophenia a lot actually. Tommy is as complicated as I can take it. Just recieved the SACD Deluxe edition, which apparantly is taken from the original master tape that was lost for a long long time. And it is indeed different from the CD that I had. A matter of taste I guess, but "Christmas" is much better on the Deluxe (original master) edition, especially where they go "Tommy can you hear me" -dudududuJoin MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

I believe it involves getting her drunk and taking pictures.

Pete Townsend on how to be a mod:
"To be a mod you had to have short hair, money enough to buy a real smart suit, good shoes, good shirts; you had to be able to dance like a madman. You had to be in possession of plenty of pills all the time and always be pilled up. You had to have a scooter covered in lamps. You had to have, like, an army anorak to wear on the scooter. And that was being a mod, and that was the end of the story."
I think that should go in the MURC FAQ.
I've always assumed all the MURC mods dressed smart and danced like madmen.
