Tommy by the Who - worst musical of the last century?

9/20/2008
I rented Tommy thru netflix.

Ummm, this is the third time i have had to pause it and come back to it later because i was either painfully bored or terribly embarrassed for those in it.

The only semblance of order i can create out of this travesty is: don't be a young misfit who decides to be a cult guru because it won't turn out so great and some of the folks who flock to you will eventually betray you and the whole thing will turn into a mockery of itself.... We could have known that by asking Jesus, Mr Manson or The reverend Jim Jones... The music is horrible (except for Tina Turner and elton John's brief performances).

Otherwise i'm just baffled. The whole thing could have been edited down to about 1/3 of the length and actually had more impact.

I'd say The Rocky Horror Picture Show had a deeper and more spiritual message!

yuck.
