Build a thousand bridges......they may call you an engineer....build a thousand buildings....they may call you an architect......suck on ^$%# and your a ^$%# sucker the rest of your life.
False accusations are as bad as the real thing.
I find it more interesting that the NFL would consider putting great-grandpa Townsend on stage to do anything.
Yes, I grew up listening to THE WHO. I grew up listening to the Beatles.
But, there have been a few ‘new’ groups since that time.
Is there even anyone else in the band alive besides Townsend?
Maybe the NFL could we get him (in honor of the pedophilia concern) to sing that song about jerking off?
The story I heard was the Tommy was sort of autobiographical and something like that happened to Townshend.
Selected lyrics from Townsend’s Uncle Ernie song from Tommy:
I’m your wicked Uncle Ernie
I’m glad you won’t see or hear me
As I fiddle about
Your mother left me here to mind you
Now I’m doing what I want to
Fiddling about
Down with the bedclothes
Up with your nightshirt!
You won’t shout as I fiddle about
Rough Boys.
Such a great song. Except for the lyrics.
I think Peter Townsend is a bit barmy -- as most "artists" are -- but I'd stop before accusing him of being a pedophile.
The rest of the story is out there if you're willing to look.
I might point out that in the song lyrics in Rough Boys, that the only reference to the gender of the person who (created/wrote/inspired) the song is “HER”.
Agreed. Scummy lawyers and psycho shrinks have created an industry based on child abuse, much as the divorce industry was created 35 years ago.
Agreed. “Child AbuseWatch” would be taken more seriously if, rather than rifling through Pete Townsend’s underpants drawers, they were investigating the “Safe School Czar,” who thinks it’s satisfactory for grade schoolers to cruise bus terminal Mens rooms,
They still do quite well. In fact, Daltrey just finished a solo tour and even though he had a few rough spots, he generally sounded amazing.
He also looks fantastic (looks a good 20 years younger) and is quite strong (the strongest hug I've ever had).
He (?) can’t. And the poster only signed up here today, to spew this.
Really? Or is it just your perception?
Explain the following lyrics from the song:
Nobody knows her
She’s so easy to find
Under the sheets
Nobody knows her
----------
Anyone can plainly see the song is about a not-so-young woman who like rough, young, boys. But, you all bought into the claims of the MSM (they lie, they always have) for years, even still believing while you post the VERY TEXT of the song which proves you wrong.
