Just kidding. Although back in '78 I heard that near the end of his life Sid was taking lessons from someone (maybe Neon Leon, I don't remember) and had become sort of competent on the instrument.The important thing about Entwhistle was that he and Moon more or less switched jobs with Townshend. The traditional rhythm section carried the melody in Who songs, while the trad lead instrument (guitar) was holding down the rhythm.
