The Who, Full article:
Lowell George (Little Feat) : I was tired of being scared of going on stage and performing in front of an audience. Then it suddenly changed at a Who gig we did at Anaheim Stadium - a parking lot full of punks and hoodlums looking for a punch-up ... is that what you call it? ... everybody was preparing for malevolence of one sort or another, but we went out and had a great time. Mid-way through, someone threw a toilet roll in the air in a great arc, and kenny grabbed a note - the right one of course - and threw it right back at him, and everybody went, 'Uh-huh ... these guys have got something!' Basically, though, very few people come to gigantic gigs to hear the music. It's not my favourite performing situation ... I'd rather do four or five concert hall dates than a stadium.
