  3. Townshend Shocked Who Didn't Implode

    <span style="font-size: small;">The fact that The Who didn&rsquo;t break up years ago still astonishes Pete Townshend. In a new interview, the guitarist credits the late Keith Moon of all people with keeping the band intact. Townshend said, &ldquo;Bands are peculiar things. It could be magic, in a way, two musicians performing together. It doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean they will be friendly. You can walk onstage with a bunch of people that you hate and produce fantastic music. We tended to cover up with crazy behavior&hellip; Keith kept the atmosphere light. He kept everybody happy.&rdquo;</span>

  4. Hearing loss partially reversed in noise-damaged ears of mice

    Anyone who&rsquo;s gone to too many rock concerts or worked with loud machinery for too long &nbsp;(or listened to too many kazillion-decibel advertisements at a movie theater) may eventually pay the price: hearing loss caused by damage to tiny, sound-transmitting cells in the inner ear.

  6. Review: The Who performs 'Quadrophenia' and more at Staples Center

    Few songwriters in British rock have had loftier goals, and more success, than Pete Townshend of the Who, and few works from the classic rock era are as accomplished and emotionally rich as "Quadrophenia," the Who&rsquo;s 1973 double-album rock opera focused on rebel youth in working class England.

  8. A hunt for tickets and celebrities, set to music

    Celebrity, as it turns out, is in the eye of the beholder, and one of the fascinating aspects of the annual convention that brings together makers and sellers of all manner of musical gear for four days in Anaheim is that there are nearly as many universes of celebrity as there are stars within each.

  11. Review: Rock legends take over Sandy concert

    Critiquing the broadcast of the 12-12-12 Sandy benefit concert on Wednesday night is like assessing the food at a bake sale: Maybe the muffins are oversalted or the cookies are stale, but that's not the point. The point is charity and drawing attention to the cause.
