"So you think we look pretty good together
So you think my shoes are made of leather."

I get the impression that, like Jacko (allegedly) Townsend was fiddled with as a child, and it has left an indelible mark.

Substitute is a brilliant song. But for an insight into Pete's tortured mind have a listen to Pictures Of Lily, I'm A Boy and the very disturbing Fiddle About (from Tommy).

i just read jacksond subdued,what the hell does that mean?

'Hope I die before I get old'.....

Hmmmm.....might not have been a bad thing.
Great music, terrible wrinklies going on and on and on and on (Jagger pls note).

hi jj,the who made some great records in the 60s i must admit,but there were a few yrs later that were not as good.

True, very true.
But then, a lot of bands made some terrible records, but didn't make any good ones either.

Last week I went to see a Who tribute band playing in a local club and a small group of agressive beer boys in the crowd spent the whole gig shouting 'nonce' at the tribute Pete Townsend! I kid you not.

Appalling---that should have been "tribute nonce!"

I guess it made a change from "Big Nose"

or hes a must to avoid,wrong group though.
