Wow

I almost cried watching The Who play on the Rock Honors.
It was weird. Maybe it was just hormones.
To think, that their music has lasted so long and still resonates with teens everywhere.
You look at these 2 older men on stage singing these songs that you can only picture a young band performing and you think "How well they must know each other".
After all that time of existing in the same frame of mind you have to have some sort of weird ESP.
It's something I could only dream of.
Being in a band and being able to exist successfully for so many years.
I could only think of how hard it must be to play these songs when 2 original members have died. It must be like losing a limb. This person you have known for so long and put yourself out on a line for so many times an made music with just gone.

For these reasons I felt myself just start sobbing.
