The first part of the title comes from Meher Baba, who was Pete Townshend's spiritual guru. The second part comes from Terry Riley, an experimental musician Townshend admired. Many of the keyboard riffs and sound effects on Who's Next were a result of O'Riley's influence. There is also a theory that "O'Riley" refers to the violin jig at the end of the song.

My foster mother named her son Dylan back in 1989 when it was original.  I think she got it from Bob Dylan.  Then 90210 came out and it became mainstream.  She still curses Aaron Spelling for that.

Now there's a name I haven't heard in quite awhile!\nDenny's real name is Brian Hines...looks like he left Wings due to the fact they disbanded, or was it the dispute over the rights of "Mull Of Kintyre" that he co-wrote with Paul...really stumped by the 'Broadstreet' character...\ntidbits:  apparently, Denny is writing an autobiography...didn't realize he was involved with Ginger Baker...\n(thanks for a good question!)

This is nothing new...people have been carrying on about this place for the last 25 years...they supposedly have the bodies of the extra-terrestrials who crashed in Roswell NM back in 1947. In reality it's a secluded place where the military can play with it's new toys without the fear of prying eyes...it's a BIG base... oh and that Bob Lazar guy they mention has been discredited as a lying nut ball...he never worked there. Now that Area 51 has such a high profile, I imagine all the really secret stuff has been moved to a place that is actually still a secret.

Naaah - I think that when someone dies unexpectedly or by their own hand, and who's as famous as Kurt (or, say Elvis) there's so much mystery and rumour around their death that it just never ever goes away.  Besides the fact that Courtney's no shrinking violet.  I just don't see her being THAT messed up as to help something like that.  I believe she truly didn't know he was going to do it.

Yes, but now I cant remember what it was called and it is really bugging me!!!

I know the name "Keisha" is a legitimate African name.  It means "favorite".  Believe it or not "Latifa" is also a legitimate African name meaning "gentle".  So is Mandisa, Maisha, Malika, Naima, Ashanti, Aisha, Rashida, and Shaniqua!  What gets out of control is the spelling because these are foreign words and you can spell them anyway you want.  But that goes for American names as well.  Take for example, Catherine, Katherine, Kathryn, and Catharine!  Then there's Brittney, Brittany, Britney and Brittanie!  I guess some people just want to give their child a name that nobody else has, something unique and special.  Personally, I'm with you on the ridiculousness of some of the names, but the most ridiculous baby-namers of all are the movie stars.  I mean, who the heck names their kid Apple?  And what was Demi Moore thinking when she named 2 of her daughters Scout Larue & Rumer!  But the all time worst is David & Victoria Beckham naming their kid BROOKLYN! That's my home town...and no proud Brooklynite would dare do that!

I didn't hear anything about that, I can't see mount charlies putting on a free gig, he gets so much grief and hassle when the planning permission goes in for any gig, and he wants to make money to fund the gaff!!\nWas there ever a free gig in Slane? Nope. If Robbie wasn't off his head when he said that (didn't he feel he played a shite gig?) and if he meant it, its most likely to happen in the phoenix park - the only place i can recall where free gigs happen?????

Probably an urban legend. Every town has a "Rock and Roll Graveyard" or a "Resurrection Mary" or a "Goatman's Bridge." Google had this to say on the subject...

Albert Grant, Roman's son, was the one pretending to have the seizure. I think he is gay, but can't face it. He was farther that night than he probably ever had in picking up the guy up and all. But, he could not go thru with the acutal act, so he faked the seizure instead of hurting the guy's feelings. Basically, Albert is an idiot!!

For the grateful dead angle...\nIt is not truly known who "uncle john was".  It is believed that it refers to John Cohen, of the New Lost City Ramblers.  John Cohen's nickname was Uncle John, and the lyrics of the song GD Uncle Johns Band reference songs from New Lost City Ramblers (NLCR).  Also, Jerry was said to have attended many NLCR shows in Cali.  In David Dodd's book, there is a semi-confirmation of this theory from Robert Hunter.

actually that is a highly debated peice of information. it sounds like many different things but nobody knows for sure except for Three Six mafia so until it is proven then you should not say that. I wouldn't be surprised if that was really what they say though. I am a big fan I have most of their songs and they talk about crucifiction and Gangsta Boo calls herself the Devil's Daughter in one of the songs. And Obviously Three Six stands for 666.

Are you sure about the spelling? I couldn't find any Baterman Island on the web, and I guess I'm not the only one. Maybe that's why you don't get any answers, maybe it's Bannerman Island...

Its the same reason people call Robert Bob for short...\n\nMakes no sense whatsoever...
