What "Roger Daltrey show"?

[chatham43]

...think  they'd been watching footage of Roger Daltrey rather than the Who, which seemed to have upset Pete.

[jadealone]

He was so F*ing gorgeous back then!

It's so amazing that we've been blessed in our lifetime to experience anything and everything we want to because of the internet and the graciousness of people (and free hosting sites ) that freely share what they have with the world-no profiting involved, just a want to let others enjoy what they have enjoyed...or something like that. I love it! thankx.

" A lot of Americans congratulating themselves on the fact that this festival was gonna change the world... I kinda saw through it... there was a lot of political stuff going on in the background.. ... ...a self congratulatory affair...."

Hmmm. Sounds VERY familiar.

Pete's the man.

Always was.

It was after a gig he had done he reckoned he was drunk and admitted to going with them,

@joedog281 he did a good enough job as a Dad over the last 40 years it seems & Im sure we would know, him being a public figuire, if his kids had any issues with him that you are alluding to. Did he say he "went with gay Men" ? or did he discuss the issue of homosexuality in a magazine article after writing some songs for the 'Empty Glass' album? A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

[joedog281]

Yes Townshend was cautioned by the police in 2003,and placed on the sex register for five years for downloading kid porn,anyone ignorant enough to dismiss this should look back on the story,it seems these days if you don,t support paedos you are a pathetic c--t.

[TheDensley7]

@joedog281 Fuck off you pathetic cunt.

[joedog281]

Why did Peter Townsend go with gay men?and would you let him mind your kids?

[Cincinnatus1869]

Pete is teh man , but it just seemed so wierd to me when the 60's and 70's bands began to cut off their hair and look "80's" .

[MegaCokamo]

my mother said woodstock sucked lol

[Thejbirdy]

The good old Pete goes on.....

[whoarethebrainpigs]

Pete's gayest look ,,was he auditioning for Flock of Seagulls"??? 

[SeattleLA]

If Pete Townsend said that Woodstock was not all it was supposed to be, and had cocerns (as he says here), that is good enough for me. 0:18 to 1:10
