The Who fans are walking encyclopedias on band members — 97% nailed the bass player and 94% knew Pete Townshend as the main songwriter — yet that same crowd stumbled hard on the band's origin story, with only 92% knowing they started out as 'The Detours,' revealing a classic 'know the stars, forget the roots' fan pattern.
When it came to album deep-cuts, fans could tell 'Cut My Hair' belongs to Quadrophenia (82% correct) but nearly 10% were convinced 'Behind Blue Eyes' — a Who's Next track — was the Quadrophenia answer instead, proving that even die-hard fans sometimes mix up The Who's two greatest rock operas.
