It was accompanied by four truckloads of flowers; a band sent the mournful strains of funeral dirges across the city, fearing violence at what had turned into a national hero's funeral, the government stage-managed most of the arrangements and issued a volley of pleas for calm.

I guess the thing is that they have retained all of the normal apparatus of a regular old rock and roll band, but their sound is unique. The only two groups that have done remakes of Who songs are the Amboy Dukes, and Count Five, but both of them were dismal limitations. Look at the individual members of the group. Peter Townshend plays lead and writes most of the songs...
