From Page 6:
THE Who's upcoming tour is expected to garner the legendary band a cool $100 million, but getting Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey to travel and perform together is turning into a logistical night- mare.
One insider said, "There is a lot of tension and fighting going on right now. Roger is furious with Pete. Pete has been writing all this new material and wants to perform the new stuff, but Roger wants to stick with 'My Generation,' 'Won't Get Fooled Again,' 'Pinball Wizard' and other classics."
Townshend and Daltrey are said not even to be on speaking terms, and have supposedly presented tour operators with a list of demands, including:
* The two rockers must have separate dressing rooms on opposite ends of the hallway.
* There will be no conversation between the two of them either before or after performances. "They will basically show up, play, and leave," the source said.
* They must have separate travel arrangements, separate hotel accommodations, as well as separate staffing.
"They're at each other's throats right now," our insider said, "But considering how much money is on the line, there's 100 million reasons why they need to do this."

For that kind of money, they should have to contain the secret of their hatred for each other. Like in the glory days of Hollywood. If someone leaks the story that they don't speak, the next day they should have to release a video where they're jacking each other off. Or chatting. Either way.
Nice post title. I totally agree with BA. Suck it up, assholes!
