On the downside, there has not been fuck all since, including that absolutely awful "Endless Wire" piece of defecate from 2006...pieced together by Daltrey and Townsend and an assload of uninterested studio musicians.
A pox on it, and any other so called "restoration projects" that stink up the planet with the arrogance of entitlement.
