Well, a drummer who has performed with John Entwistle's solo act has been 
quoted in the press as saying that J.E. was taking meds for a heart 
condition. I don't think J.E. went through as much wear and tear as other Who 
members -- Pete Townshend nearly killed himself with alcohol and drugs about 
20 years ago, after Keith Moon died.

I too have been a Who fan since before the Oils got together, and I believe 
that the Who has been a fairly large influence on the Oils (this has been 
discussed on this list over the years). If PG says something about 
Entwistle's passing at the next few Oils shows, I would appreciate it if 
someone would mention it here on the list. Thanks in advance!

John Entwistle, 1944-2002, rest in peace.
