Joey This is a GREAT article !

A must read for everyone here .........Why ??????

Because Pete Townshend is a " Rock God " just like the Stones or McCartney and we owe him respect and allegiance .


Good article in there about Entwistle too ( just click on the " John Entwistle " icon in the same article )

Monkey Woman Thank you for posting the link. This is a thought-provoking article.
Indeed, Pete, "maybe more than any other rock star out there, [has] earned something most of us don't even remember anymore: the benefit of the doubt."

"We live in a hysterical time, one in which technology has outrun our capacity to come up with the ethics to go with it. There are elements of Townshend's dilemma that reek of McCarthy-era thought crime, where to investigate the lunatic fringe is to be suspect of sympathizing with it. Especially in this sort of neo-Puritan age where to be accused of a sex crime is, for all intents and purposes in the court of public opinion, to be declared guilty of it."

Miss U. Pete shoulda left the investigating to the police if his motives were kosher. Any way you look at it, it was wrong & should be to financially contribute to these sites for any reason.
