Don't mess with Pete Townshend!

[supsailor1885]

This is an excerpt from the 12 11 1971 Concert at Long Beach CA

[outofslumber]

Talking, typing. That's semantics. Go look the word up, then maybe you wouldn't resort to it in a discussion.Especially when less than 2 posts ago you "TYPED" to me, "You say you mean well". 2 mistakes in 5 words if that's your tactic. Are you 9 or something. For the record i never accused Pete of anything. just stating what is out there on the record by his own admission. I said like Michael Jackson (who was also cleared) it's as stupid as inviting kids into your bed. Debate with some honesty!

[JRCrowley]

Prick.

[doughnutboy99]

Pete hit a guy off the stage (Abbie Hoffman) with his guitar at Woodstock.

[England5is5the5best]

@doughnutboy99 Who gives a fuck!.Pete's a kiddie-fiddler

[blooddonor70]

@England5is5the5best He's your fuckin' dad, you disrespectful chav, punk's dead, your attitude is pent up homosexual angst. Get a life, troll.

[thatJCguy]

Yeh, don't mess with Pete or he'll screw your firstborn. Ped Townshend.

[MrStark3y]

He's turning into Roger Waters! He tells them to back down but they just keep going!

[TheBobohj]

my doctors last name is townshend

[shredmaster100]

im with pete all u people on u tube should shut the fuck up and stop acting like 10 year olds though most of u are 10 year olds and have no idea if pete was on x factor and they pressed the red button when hes on he would jump off the stage with his guitar and smash simons brains in thats how rock n roll used to be its gone soft with poofters like slash running around today he is a poser and is nothing compared to led zepp or the who they were real rockstars

[crapple009]

@shredmaster100 Right on about Slash! Can't stand posers like Dave Navarro as well.

[shredmaster100]

theres a funny clip on youtube about navarro he interviews george lynch and george plays dumb and says he dont know his music theory then he has to explain where the flatted fifth note is to dave and then george blows dave away by playing some highly technical arpeggios it is hilarious and just proves that navarro shouldnt even be on tv

[crapple009]

@shredmaster100 I love it- that made my day!! Thanks for that anecdote!

[shredmaster100]

yeah glad you like it i did just to see navarro get owned was worth it and george lynch is a very underrated player in my opinion hes up there with guys like yngwie and vai

[England5is5the5best]

@shredmaster100 Pete likes 10 year olds

[Rifflead]

Pete is so NOT COOL! Pete Sucks! His lyrics were good but of a neurotic man. He thinks of himself more than what the world does of him.

[brib333]

I LOVE IT!

[nobodady1]

He's no Huey Lewis.

[juresaiyan]

what a loser...

[Lambretta2244]

Does someone can do an approximative translation in French please !

I'm a big who fan but my English is not as good to understand what pete is saying ..

Please...

[JasonBonitati]

@Lambretta2244

Je vais vous dire quelque chose putain, ça va. Maintenant, écoutez. Juste écouter baise et tais-toi. Soit s'asseoir, se lever, coucher ou faire quelque chose, mais tais-toi, ça va? C'est un putain de concert rouleau rock n ', et non pas une partie de thé putain, ça va?

[SlackerSlayer]

Have they watched P.Townsends credit card expenditures lately? Don't want any more private kid-porn investigations going on.

[naleyan]

this was at the oval cricket ground in london i have a bootleg of this & hes having a go at the mods & rockers for fighting. It has a pig on the sleave called closer to the queen mary i think they made loads of albums with the same name but different venues but mine is 1970 at the oval cricket ground with this rant on it

[ridgeback69z]

2 died from drug related shit.

Guess P Townshend is sober here.

[steveconn]

@ridgeback69z Entwhistle died of a heart attack, not drugs.

[Fredrockroll]

@steveconn for using too much cocaine with too much whisky at the same time.

[steveconn]

@Fredrockroll More like a twenty year old hooker sitting on his face.

[dominiccarter77]

@steveconn Which was a result of taking drugs!

[just4tunes]

angry doofus!

[WatTyler13]

Yeah, you tell 'em, Pete - it's a rock n roll concert and we don't want any fucking noise!

[radtech21]

@WatTyler13 That's exactly what I was thinking. Don't make any noise here!

Just sit down, or lie down, or stand up.

[EarlofCrawford]

More proof that you cant "Un ring a bell". Pete was cleared of everything. All of it. But none of you idiots know that part, you heard the accusation and that was enough for you. I am guessing you are the types that think it is ok for the cops to beat on college kids.

Cowards.

[JNeifion]

@EarlofCrawford It ain't "worthy news" apparently that the whole thing turned out to be a witch hunt. It's really unfortunate, Pete has always been a very charitable guy and I believe one of the most honest (hey, he gets pissed off, don't we all?) people who are in the spotlight.

Doesn't anyone listen to the lyrics of Tommy, it's so obviously about Townshend being abused as a little kid, and what about "I'm a Boy"...I could go on but enough said.

[England5is5the5best]

@JNeifion Fuck off,pete's a nonce.

[Biffo347]

Yes thats the way it was he was a powerful guy and he meant it. When i saw them he said we are not playing another note till you sort your selves out. Townshend wore a White Boiler Suite then. They were great.

[allgonepetetong7160]

Pete Townsend is a Nonse, he's no better than Jonathan King or Gary Glitter, filth who prey on little kids. But who gives a shit eh.

[455Transam]

@allgonepetetong7160 He didn't "prey" on anyone Dumbass, if he did his ass would be in jail.

[FetaCheese222]

0:34

Wonderful.... radio... London!

[marbleheadband]

pete is legend

[joedog281]

itsonlydirtywater,are you one of his downloading pals?

[beatlecraze0]

LMAFO!!

[GroovingPict]

holy crap, and here I thought Roger Waters of Pink Floyd was the king of ranting at the audience

[JNeifion]

@GroovingPict I saw the Who @ the Meadowlands, New Jersey in the 80's where some a_s lit an m-80... Pete stopped the show and said something to the effect of "we don't play in that kind of environment anymore (since Cinn. apparently)" They then walked off and didn't come back for a LLLLong time while we all clapped like nutjobs.

People actually lifted the guilty party up over head and delivered him 2 the stage...Then the Who came back and finished the show.

I have nothing but respect 4 PT.

[itsonlydirtywater]

Can you blame him? He has always said he can't stand when folks sing a long. I think his hearing loss is a sort of blessing.

And those of you that can't get off the child porn thing, he's talking to you. Fuck off

[camerooniepooniepoo]

he's having a laugh!

[mvonwahlde]

@camerooniepooniepoo Nah. Townshend's just an ass. Great musician, but also a jerk.

[elviscash56]

I got the original box set 30 years of maximum r and b. (the original where each cd had its own separate case, not the cheap crappy reissue) and the credit for this says long beach if my memory serves me correct

[simplesecretof]

This was recorded at concert at the Long Beach Civic auditorium California on 10.12.1971. The boot is called "Closer to the Queen Mary". John Entwhistle took his honeymoon on the luxury liner. Try a site called "sugarmegs" for loads of precious downloads of The Who. Accept no substitute, Long Live The Who.

[whoarethebrainpigs]

i've got this on a bootleg ,, says it was in Longbeach. Cali. around 72ish ,,i think some drunks were fighting and they were giving pete the shits.

[bichomaldito]

Hell I would have loved to say that to some of the students in my class, but I guess I'm a teacher not a rockstar. XD

[11ashestoashes]

I'll be back tomorow for my daily dislike.

[11ashestoashes]

You fu*cking CUN*S !!!!!!! Pete Townshend is my hero and im fu*king 14 years old !!! who ever made this is a gob*hite

[MartinHH1953]

You are the most disgusting piece of shit on the planet

[MartinHH1953]

@England5is5the5best.

[tubemejlh]

On thirty years of maximum R&B it clearly lists this track as Live at Long Beach, not San Franhomo.

[ConnorG56]

ive got a feeling he didnt like me shouting at him...

[gg136800yyk]

i think he just having some fun... and messing around

[TheOppbitch]

@England5is5the5best look bro, if you want to make fun of a pedophile then go fuck around on some Michael Jackson videos. Pete Townshend was not a pedo. You're English gov't searched his computer and found no evidence of child porn. If they were wrong then I guess England isn't the best. Remember Michael fucked boys.

[England5is5the5best]

From WIKI "Pete Townshend publicly stated that on one occasion he had used a credit card to access a website advertising child pornography" "I accept that I was wrong to access this site, and that by doing so, I broke the law, and I have accepted the caution that the police have given me."

Michael Jackson has never had a caution or a conviction for "fucking boys".

[PepperDr94]

@England5is5the5best Can I just stop you there. England Isn't the best? ANYWAYS bye bye :)

[England5is5the5best]

@PepperDr94 Pete is a paedophile ANYWAY goodbye

[shredmaster100]

say that to roger daltery and he would defend pete to the end and do your research next time noob pete has owned a charity for abused children for yearsbecause he was abused as a child and you could go to jail for deformation of character because he has his own kids as well and would never hurt a kid why do you make stupid false statements about people you dont know now if you want to talk about mj he definitley was up 2 no good

[England5is5the5best]

@shredmaster100 Learn to spell,you retarded nonce supporter

[shredmaster100]

youre the nonce i bet u like looking at pictures of little kids on the internet see i can make shit up as well thats what happened to pete just because he had money

[England5is5the5best]

@shredmaster100 You are an idiot,shut up!

[shredmaster100]

how do you know hes a nonce what evidence have u got is there a tape u could put on u tube if u keep on i will report u to townshend and he will take u to court to prove these allegations also why would roger daltery one of the best rock singers ever continue to be friends with pete and make music with him if he was a nonce

[England5is5the5best]

@shredmaster100 Go ahead,report me to Pete the paedophile,I'll tell him to his face.

[shredmaster100]

nah il report u to keith moon the loon instead LOL

[England5is5the5best]

@shredmaster100 That's it,back down like a coward,why don't you choke on your own vomit like Keith.

[shredmaster100]

dont make me get slash on u hahhahhahahha

[outofslumber]

@shredmaster100

Pete T actually was arrested for possession of child pornography. The reason he gave for having it on his computer was "RESEARCH" :O

guardianDOTcoDOTukFSLASHukFSLA­SH2003FSLASHmayFSLASH08FSLASHa­rtsDOTukcrime

replace the DOT with . and FSLASH for a /

Its right there and was a big story. 5 Years on the sex offenders register for his "REASEARCH".

[TheBerserker50]

@outofslumber I was arrested twice .... each time a mess and each time not guilty, but the fuckin damage was done.... so unless you've been there or you know exactly whats goin on... shove that shit up your ass cause that obviously what you're speakin out of.....

[outofslumber]

@TheBerserker50

I know that Pete Townsend by his own admission gave his credit card details to access a website showing children being abused. That's a fact. He's admitted that, claiming it was research.

It's on the same level as michael Jackson inviting kids into his bed. He may not be a phaedophile, but why the fuck would you take kids into your bed, knowing the public opinion or in petes case, pay to access a site where kids are being abused. So shove that up yer farter!

[brandnutopian]

@outofslumber

You say you mean well, you don't know what you mean

Fucking oughta stay the hell away from things you know nothing about

[outofslumber]

@brandnutopian

Show me where I said I mean well!!

And I'm the one who doesn't know what he's talking about.

I know Pete paid to access a website that the police were watching because of the content on it. That's just a fact. The talking out of the farter is coming from you!!

[brandnutopian]

@outofslumber It's not talking, it's typing.

And you think the authorities in the UK just let him go because he's a pop star?

He was cleared of charges.

[gdanks1]

HE ALSO RANTED AT THE nec WHEN I WENT, BUT THEY DID DESERVE IT THEY JUST WOULD NOT SHUT THE FUCK UP

[dkdeu]

lol! townshend indeed..

[MsMoonTheLoon]

omg at 0:22 :D:D:D

[England5is5the5best]

Pet stop messing with kids.

[ptownshendlove19]

@England5is5the5best ok so your a real pete townshend hater, so how about you start shutting the fuck up because no one wants to here you get all pissy and disrespect this man who you call "pet" you retard. Grow some balls and i dare you to say that to his face see wat would happpen.....you low life.

[England5is5the5best]

@ptownshendlove19 Actually Pete would not be interested in me,My balls have dropped.

Though he might be "into" little girls(All "pissy" or not).

We don't know the specific's,With this fucking lowlife nonce,Or with his supporters.

[batosai370]

@England5is5the5best You know you're in the closet. You claim to hate "Pet", but you just wanna dive into his blue eyes, pansy. I'd love to see Pete give you the Abbie Hoffman treatment. Actually...wait a minute...are you Abbie Hoffman?!

[England5is5the5best]

@batosai370 It was a typo idiot,I would dive into his eyes with a large knife.

I'd kick the shit out of the nonce,We known how to deal with paedophiles and their followers in England.

[accadaccasuperstar]

@England5is5the5best i would smash my guitar over your head and hopefully give you brain damage. even better, it may kill you. you're the paedophile here. pete is not. face the facts faggot. btw grow the fuck up and get of your mum's basement.

[England5is5the5best]

@accadaccasuperstar Calm down boy,you're too old for pete.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Ah, one of the vigilante twats that fire bomb pediatricians because they haven't got a fucking clue. This issue was over and done with 8 years ago and the only revelation that was true is that the police were incapable of looking to their own records rather than be led by the worst and most ill informed tabloids. They then had to (quietly) apologise and retract any allegations without appearing to lose face - opening the way for morons to carp on cluelessly for years.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 I'd firebomb your house while you give the old kiddie-fiddler Pete a blowjob.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Brilliant response. Exactly what I'd expect from a fool. Keep up the good work. you're coming across as a complete idiot.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 I really seem to be getting to you,whats you guilty secret?

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Great diction and punctuation there. Bravo. Keep trying.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 Nonce supporting nonce

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Awww, diddums. Can't cope with being ignored. 

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 Don't talk like a child,Pete will get excited!

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Why's that then?

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 Then he might want to fuck your children

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Who might?

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best I agree that you are a failure. Well done for accepting ownership of your problem.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 That's right,you're a paedophile and Pete Townshend is a paedophile

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best LOL I think we established the truth a while back with your admission that you're a failure. Your screeds are very amusing, a total waster and religious fundamentalist with nothing to do but argue about your lame fantasies. Sad turd. Bye bye.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best You don't have to sign your name after every message. 'Bye bye' will do just fine.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 You're the Pete Childsend fan,you're the paedophile.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Harnois75 and the rest of the world - 28, England5is5thebest - nil. Game over. Better luck next time loser.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Yeah. Boo-hoo loser. Upset are we? I think the retard here is obvious for all to see. England5is5the5best has become England5is5a5pitiful5twat. What's it feel like to be a browbeaten failure dimwit? LOL

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 You live in a fantasy world,fucker of children,did you become a paedophile after your father fucked you?

Did the trauma make you talk in that childish way,46 year old Doctor who fan,time to grow up

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Oh the irony. You poor deluded tit. I'm so pleased to see you floundering in impotent rage.

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 The only time you lose your impotence is with children,like your idol Pete "paedophile" townsend!

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 You're amerikkan are you not,the most stupid race in the world.

Its impossible for a amerikkkan to browbeat someone who is English.

Come back with something please,lets find out!

[England5is5the5best]

@harnois75 I've won!,I've won!,I've beaten everybody,no one can handle my incisive and witty comments,you all lose because I am the master,and you are the weakest link,goodbye!

[harnois75]

@ptownshendlove19 Well said.

[accadaccasuperstar]

@England5is5the5best u know ur a paedophile. your just scared to admit it so you go around calling innocent people with careers kiddie fiddlers. you may aswell turn yourself in, you dirty sick minded twat

[England5is5the5best]

@accadaccasuperstar Lets get this straight,homosexuals and paedophiles are the same thing,and i'm one if i criticise Pete Townsend?

You are a sick man.

[accadaccasuperstar]

@England5is5the5best mate im 13. pete isnt a paedo. u can think that he is if you want. please can we just stop this arguement on this vid and the bob geldof vid aswell. its driving me nuts. snm

[England5is5the5best]

@accadaccasuperstar Pete would love you,nutty or otherwise.

[accadaccasuperstar]

@England5is5the5best yeh he would love me as a fan and ONLY a fan. im not replying to any more of your comments so this arguement will stop

[England5is5the5best]

@accadaccasuperstar OK,bandit bait.

[harnois75]

@England5is5the5best Well that clears that up. Nicely played accadaccasuperstar.

[ConnorG56]

@England5is5the5best I have two guitars, should i throw one at you and smash the other over your head?

[England5is5the5best]

@ConnorG56 How you going to do that,arsehole

[England5is5the5best]

@ConnorG56 Stick them both up your arse,Pete will love it!

[theslipknotfan111]

@England5is5the5best You're the biggest nob in youtube history and i hope one day pete townshend reads your comment hunts you down and quite rightly disables you DICK.

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

@England5is5the5best Ahhhhhh, more retards making more false accusations about Pete Townshend. Did you know they never found any evidence of child porn on his computer? I bet you have some on yours though...

[England5is5the5best]

@thewhochilipeppersU2 Its you who wants to fuck kids,you and your idol Paedo Townshend

[thewhochilipeppersU2]

@England5is5the5best I not quite sure why you're so persistent on this. It's obvious that no one wants you here so why don't you just leave?

[England5is5the5best]

@thewhochilipeppersU2 I feel its my duty to harass nonce rings.

[lexoos]

Does anybody know what concert this is from? I love this by the way!

[JasonBonitati]

@lexoos

Yeah, I believe he ranted this in San Francisco, in 1971.

[alswalling]

@JasonBonitati madison square Garden at 07:03pm eastern time

[superfuzzymomma]

@lexoos "Pete Dialogue" (live at the Fillmore West, San Francisco, 1969) - from the Who box set "30 Years Of Maximum R&B"

[modo03]

@superfuzzymomma It's actually from Long Beach arena December 10th 1971!

[superfuzzymomma]

@modo03 I stand respectfully corrected, thanks man!

[xxxMrSuspendedxxx]

I had to go "Thumbs Down," 'cause it wasn't just my tiny Dell speakers foiking up on this, and I begged and got confirmations from on that from some ( 7 ) shitty youtube former "friends." < I told them. "It sounds fine to me me... what do you think." And they ALL said, "That's total inaudible low volume crap, you retard!"

[dalegrett]

It's a f*ing rock and roll concert, not a f*ing tea party!

[epimetero]

don't fuck around with pete!!

[txeire]

bwhahh ha ha! Tell em Pete!  5 star rant
