The Who have been doing “farewell tours” since 1982. I guess this is the “farewell to farewell tours” tour.

$10 says he calls her “M’lady”

Ageing gracefully but still looking like a cartoon dog. Happy 10th birthday to my goofball, Bono.

Sparing a thought for all the guys named Alan/Allan/Allen — aka “Al”.

This piece is like a punch in the gut that also makes your stomach hurt from laughing. “A writing career is one of those wilderness survival challenges where they dump you in the woods without a map or a compass or food and whoever finds their way out wins.”
