[massiveham]

theresa russell cutaways feed the continual rumours...hhmmmmm ;)

[jgg87]

Every day, at every hour, someone is arguing about The Beatles. Even when it's The Rolling Stones being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Think about it. ;)

[CardiffBoy1927]

@jgg87 - Fascinating comment....yawn

[MsMoonTheLoon]

if Pete gave such a speech to me it would be a greater honour than any price or hall of fame in the universe!

[TonyCook2012]

I had to give a thumbs down.... no reason... just because. pete is FUCKING GAWD!!

[54markl]

Pete is so FUNNY!

[casitas666]

Alguien lo puede traducir al castellano? por favor

[neilzep]

@XenoType008 ya he did that with the PInk Floyd Lond HOF as well.

[DwayneJKing]

Pet Townsend is fucking awesome. You gotta love a guy who treats this like a fucking roast.

[luckyold317]

there are these great moments when the crowd seems apprehensive and Pete seems to keep reminding himself, I'm PETE fuckin TOWNSEND, it doesn't matter if you boo.Because if you do, tomorrow I'll still be PETE fuckin TOWNSEND, I'll be fine.

[shoekstra1419]

Pete is a genius

[cracks21229]

The Beatles were fun and the Stones were shocking. That pretty much sums it up.

[DancinJim]

Amazing speech Pete! Funny, funny guy! No surprise seeing as he was part of the funniest and most rock n roll band of all-time, alongside Keith Moon!

[samakhtarrrr]

Pete rocking the ponytail ;)

[pissedllama]

I guess given an induction speech drunk is very much in the spirit of the Stones, well done Pete.

[bluessiren78]

hahahahahahahahahahaha. JOY!

[TheJamjam81]

i wonder if petes had a few here lol

[BasementBeginnings]

6:00

"DEEP - I'm havin' fun now!"

[RollingOrmond]

Why cut to fucking Yoko? This is a band she didn't get to fuck up.

[RollingOrmond]

@mcdstuff Not true. Mick and Keith wrote as good or better lyrics and played guitar just as well.

[batosai370]

@RollingOrmond ...in your opinion. I love the Stones, but nothing will ever beat Quadrophenia IMO. Absolute perfection.

[RollingOrmond]

@batosai370 No one can even name a song off that album. Pete's operatic explorations of bullied kids just start to blend together...

[batosai370]

@RollingOrmond Jimmy wasn't bullied at all (well, I guess in The Dirty Jobs a bit). He just has a crappy life. And are you really going to say that people don't know "Love Reign O'er Me"? Riiiiiiiiiiiight.

[RollingOrmond]

@batosai370 Great, people remember one song on the album. That's epic.

[batosai370]

@RollingOrmond Whatever man, do you know what "in my opinion" even means? Un-bunch your panties and have a nice life.

[verbaud]

Ricky Gervais has nothing on Pete.

[Gynvir]

This might be close to the perfect speech, but why to the people laugh when Keith Moon is mentioned?

[allmightymouse]

is this a celebrity roast?

[vonludwig84]

cocaine is a helluva drug.

[ariesram74]

Is this a British style induction? rofl

[Triplesod]

@ariesram74 How do you mean?

[theachtungtree]

any doubts about the stones talent? retractors, watch out....one hell of an artist loves em, re think that shit dipshits

[BEATLE909GRM]

excellent

[BEATLE909GRM]

excellant

[caesarcerf]

townshend is not rambling. he is being "insightful and nasty," at the same time. and yes, he is a man to be RECKONED with.

[PersausDcw]

what a deuce-bag 

[MrJeanbond]

pete is a badass

[themooddisorders]

is this a roast?

[ZephyrJG]

Pete is a BAMF. Period. End of story. Everyone in The Who is and was.

[Jecht301010]

pete FTW!

[idieinelevators]

"Mick gave me a bad case of VD" LMFAOOOOOOOOOO XD

I love Pete!

[mcgurkryans]

Great speech... vintage Pete.
