If The What had played Woodstock '99, nobody would have gotten hurt.

Well, I don't know. Would the show cause the equivelent of yelling fire to happen? Would everyone one have gotten trampled running away?

The What is probably the greatest assembly of musical talent in our era. Too bad, like Yoko with The Beatles, that a woman broke up the band.

TheMan is right. It is too bad that a WOMAN had to break up this band. They had a good thing going. What was Mike's problem anyway?

I remember the first time I saw The What. I was at CBGB's and GnR had to cancel their show because Axl was acting up. To avoid a riot the club's management came out and asked if there were any, "Good lucking Who-cover bands standing out the in crowd". The rest is history.

I know what all The What fans are asking - "Where they now?"

Well here is the answer:

Adam - Gave up guitar and records radio static and synth sounds all day. Also spends way too much time making websites like this and this and doing homework.

Craig - Busy playing counterstrike and writing wacky articles like this one.

Daniel - After a run-in with the law and a few years in the Texas State pen, Daniel has decided to lay low for a while. That is all we know.

Marty - Rumored to be conducting revolutionary research in adult website design. You'd have to ask him.

Matthew - Can't tell you, it's top secret (really).

Michael - Good question. Mike?


Is a reunion planned in the near future? Will the greatest 5/6/7 piece band ever reform?? Well I don't want to spark any rumors but ........ probably not.
We don't want to embarass led zeppelin twice. We have stolen too many fans already.
