LOL!

Moonisup LONDEN - In Londen heeft de politie maandag Pete Townshend gearresteerd. De gitarist van de Britse rockband The Who wordt verdacht van onder meer bezit en productie van kinderporno. Dat heeft de Britse omroep BBC gemeld

that means that he is being accused of possesion and making child porn

CS Some quotes by Pete from a Playboy interview in 1994

PLAYBOY: How is your audience different from the Who's audience?

TOWNSHEND: I released Empty Glass and then went on to do the Who tour, and I could see the difference immediately. There were all these girls coming backstage asking, "Which one of you wrote Let My Love Open Your Door?" So there were all these girls, very different from the Who audience, the Who Rottweilers, I called them. Even the women were quite macho--they had to be to survive the front-row nonsense. Maybe five percent of the audience was female at Who concerts, whereas I seem to have a mixed audience. Then I started to get letters from young gay men who were delighted with Rough Boys, because they thought that I had come out, so they were in the audience, too.

PLAYBOY: What was behind all the reports of your coming out?

TOWNSHEND: It was that song, which is ironic because the song is actually taunting both the homosexuals in America--who were, at the time, dressing themselves up as Nazi generals--and the punks in Britain dressing the same way. I thought it was great that these tough punks were dressing as homosexuals without realizing it. I did an interview about it, saying that Rough Boys was about being gay, and in the interview I also taked about my "gay life," which--I meant--was actually about the friends I've had who are gay. So the interviewer kind of dotted the t's and crossed the i's and assumed that this was a coming out, which it wasn't at all. But I became an object of ridicule when it was picked up in England. It was a big scandal, which is silly. If I were bisexual, it would be no big deal in the music industry. If I ran down a list of the men who have tried to get me into bed, I could bring down quite a few big names in the music business. And no, I wont't do it.

PLAYBOY: In the recent unauthorized biography of Mick Jagger, he was said to have had affairs with almost every pop star there is.

TOWNSHEND: Yeah, and if you ever tried to pin him down about it, I don't think he would disclaim it because he's smart enough to know there's value in that mystery. In my roasting of the Stones at their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I joked about the fact that I am one of the few people lucky enough to have slept with Mick Jagger. [Laughs]. So when it all came out about me, I fought like hell not to comment.

PLAYBOY: Do you like to keep people guessing?

TOWNSHEND: No. But I don't want to let anybody down. I don't want to let it be known that it is in any sense an important part of my self-image to be thought of a breeder. I don't want to deny bisexuality as if I were being accused of child molestantion or murder, as if it were some crime or something to be ashamed of, because that would be cruel to people who are gay. But I was bitter and angry at the way the truth had been distorted and decided never to do any interviews again. Not because I had been manipulated but because I didn't trust myself to be precise about what I was saying.

PLAYBOY: When the tabloids were after you, was it difficult for your family?

TOWNSHEND: It was. But what is interesting is that sensational journalism is far less damaging to us as a family than a deep, incisive interview like this one.

You sick fuck! There is humor in almost every subject (I should know 'cause I'm one of the few women I know who listens faithfully to Howard Stern), but not this one! Save the lame jokes for another topic!

I came very very close to getting you an inflatable sheep from Spencer's before the MSG gathering. She had lovely blue eyes...

I think I'm going to miss the MSG party this time around. Stranded in Chicago.

moy this is really sad

Happy Motherfucker!! jb wrote>>Thank god the Stones have never been involved in such a sick thing.

Maybe not quite, but close. If you're going to do it, you might as well do it right, like Bill Wyman. The key is to give a 13 year old a good fucking and then slip a ring on her finger while her mother stands by with you son's cock in her hand. Yep, do it like that and it's no big deal.
But, Pete has really fucked himself this time, and I'm sure that the authorities are loving it!
01-13-03 06:02 PM
gypsy I didn't want to believe it at first. How sick and sad. Pete does look like a 'Chester' in that photo above.

If it's true, what the hell, Pete? If it's not true, still, what the hell, Pete? I mean, the only reason I believe his argument is that no one would be naive enough to put their real name and credit card down for something like that. Plus, the fact that he 'fessed up right away instead of leaving the country or something gives him some credit.

But Trousers, man, talk to the *cops* before you try that sorta thing. Christ almighty.

01-13-03 06:10 PM
sirmoonie Wyman getting away with child molesting like that gives me hope that, if (and its a big IF) things are what Pete says they are, this will blow over. Don't think he can get hanged for a one time deal, especially given that it kinda jives with what he's been yacking about for quite some time now. His actions are so fucking stupid, they almost have to be true.

We'll see whats on those computers they confiscated. Yikes!!! Will be freaking out the day that news get leaked.

What a world.....

Sad.
01-13-03 06:29 PM
gypsy Yeah, using one's credit card for such a thing is stupid. But, if he is a pedophile, he most definitely wasn't thinking clearly. It's quite possible that his urge to view child pornography was first and foremost. It's how all criminals get caught. They get caught up in the 'excitement' of what they're doing, and leave evidence behind.
01-13-03 06:33 PM
gypsy Just out of curiousity: How old was Mackenzie Phillips when Mick bedded her?
01-13-03 06:44 PM
Prodigal Son I honestly believe he's not a pedophile, but he is guilty of visiting a child porn site. Nobody would go through all this vigilante stuff and fight child porn to the extremes just to hide their own perversions. However, he was pretty unwise to go to the site. According to him, he had consent from Scotland Yard to do it. We all make mistakes, and Pete made a very big and public one. Now for all those saying gee, I'm glad the Stones aren't like this... What about Bill marrying an 18-year old after five years of dating. Pretty perverted if you ask me. But this is different in public image. That's because child porn is a sick, disgusting exploitation of children and it is more debilitating to an image than just having a taste for minors (like Elvis, R. Kelly, Brian Wilson have done). I just wish the best for Pete. Damn, in the long run, being Roger Daltrey kicks ass because of all the Who members, his life has had the least controversy and tragedy. Poor Keith and the Ox are dead, and god knows Pete's come close.
01-13-03 06:58 PM
sammy davis jr. I believe MaKenzie Phillips was a whopping THIRTEEN when Mick (allegedy) boinked her. Funny how that gets glossed over....
01-13-03 07:30 PM
Boomhauer I just want to know one thing: Where in the hell is this stuff being made and why can't it be stopped?

Is this like underground type shit or something? I say find the fuckers and burn them.




Now I'm watching Fox News and they say Townshend is in custody for child porn, making it, and intending to distribute it. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHH, WTF?
01-13-03 08:00 PM
Joey " I gots myself an inflatable party sheep, and man let me tell you, you cannot tell the difference between the real thing and latex!!!"

Scot Rocks Sad Sad Sad



I can't fuckin believe it, Pete arrested for all that shit, It is such a letdown seeing an idol, being accused of being the same as the rest of those filthy scum, I hope to God, it's untrue, we will just need to wait and see. However, always innocent until proven guilty. Let us just wait.

FEEDING FRENZY!!!

01-13-03 08:18 PM
exile ITS SO STRANGE!!!
Only last friday a mate and myself were watching the "Being Mick" Documentry (My friend is a HUGE Who fan.)

that part of the doco when you are walking into a recording studio and all you can hear is someone belting out gituar chords to "Gun"

My friend immediately says"Oh man that fucking Pete Townsend" (like i said he's a big fan)

any we were watching the doco and laughing at Pete Townsend describing what the inside of a train looks like to Mick Jagger (who probably hasnt caughta train in 40 years)

I believe that pete was just stupid probably doing research but unfortunatley with the media how it is (Everyone being guilty before proved innocent) This will stick to Pete and he will be known as one of these people from now on....I really feel sorry for him but theres nothing you can do
01-13-03 08:26 PM
Scot Rocks His website, www.petetownshend.co.uk is down now too, I wonder if it has been taken down, oe there is some statement from Pete, or Matt - the guy who runs the site - going to be put on the site.

Riffhard I personaly feel that Pete is innocent of this whole sorid affair. He's certainly guilty of being incredibly naive. Stupidity is not something he's known for. I mean an idiot could not have written Tommy or Quad. This time around though it would appear that Pete was just plain stupid. I hope he and his career can weather this storm.

Why anyone here or at any other site would bash the man without any proof of his guilt is bullshit. Innocent until proven guilty. I mean for God's sake the man is one of the biggest Stones fans alive! He inducted them into the R&R HOF!

As for Mick and Mackenzie. She was 18 when Jagger banged her. He told her "I've been waiting for this since you were thirteen." He had the "decency" to give her five years to grow some pubes.

gypsy Joey, your sheep called me...crying hysterically about how she felt fat in that God-awful purple teddy. PURPLE? What in the hell were you thinking?
01-13-03 10:39 PM
Stonesmillenium2001 if he was so smart he would have went to websites about statistics on sex crimes. not going to sites that influence certain behaviors.
01-13-03 10:44 PM
Gimme Shelter I pray that Pete is innocent.

Young Joey is in to purple. He told me he wears a thong which is purple, hence the match.

The Denver gig is in 19 days, along with the public unveiling of young Joey's thong. He has promised me.

Stay tuned for the Kodak moment.

Yeah, me too.

I don't know... the thing that makes me believe he is is that he's always been a very frank guy - and that he's been a crusader against this in the past. Plus, the fact that he used his own name and so forth meant he was willing to be known - but honestly, Trousers, buddy, call the cops and tell 'em you want to help before doing anything like that... now you're, as you say, buggered.
