I saw it, thought Townshend looked daft changing his guitar every song and jumping about like he was 18 again..... silly. Daltrey always was a good singer, and the songs were good, but after Townshends recent troubles, I couldn't get into it like I might have.

I agree Ace, it is hard to look at Townsend now and feel the respect you maybe once did, at the back of mind is always that thought!!

He had never really made any secret of liking young girls though......
ive not heard his early nintys solo album ' Psychoderelict '
but ' Private Eye' (when all the 'kiddy' thing happened) said it was about
an under age girl ......who sends the washed up rock star of the story a letter with a provocative photo ...that he replies to and starts a media
scandel ............
He's not like Glitter though .......... no one came forward and said he had sex with me and i was 5 or six years old ......
the police only cautioned him .....did he have kiddy porn on his Computer ?
or was he really just checking it out for the work he does for a child abuse charity ?

For an insight into Towshend's somewhat troubled and complex sexual politics you could try tracking down a copy of Horse's Neck, a collection of short fictions he published through Faber & Faber in the mid-eighties. A truly exceptional book of genuine literary merit. He really should've written more - and perhaps still should.
