Who May Fake Olympics Performance



Suggestions that Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey will resort to lip-syncing to a pre-recorded performance during their appearance at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics has some fans grumbling.  Roger Daltrey has reportedly as much as confirmed that the Who will 'mime' the performance, and blames it on the logistical impossibility of being able to drop a true live performance into the middle of a massive event involving thousands of athletes.  The group's last major sporting event appearance, a performance during the Superbowl, was pretty rough around the edges, but it's hard not to think that fans of the band not prefer a slightly ragged live show to a polished but fake performance.
