Is Kenny Jones dead?
Keith Moon and John Entwhistle are I believe.
Kenney wasn't an original member of the band.
Is Kenny Jones dead?
Shhhh. Kenny never happened. Kenny who? Never heard of him.
Actually, what I think happened is that Daltry, Townshend, and Entwistle realized that it was absurd to give Jones a quarter of any touring money, when they could just drop him, hire a competent non-band-member drummer, and pay him a salary rather than a percentage. They figured nobody would even care, and they were right.
After all, nobody was going to be Moon anyway.
No, but for the big bands yr not a member automatically. From Stephen Davis' book on the Stones, "Old Gods Almost Dead", "Mick Jagger formally announced in late November 1993 that Bill Wyman had left the Rolling Stones, which would continue with four principal members 'and a cacophany of bass players.' Around that time, Ron Wood was finally made a junior member of the Rolling Stones, with a percentage. He'd been on salary since 1976."
"Live at Leeds" is still the Who's best album.
