Pete Townshend's Best Bits

i hope during the halftime show on Super Bowl 44
he smashes the guitar in the end.

his riffs are legendairy!!!!!!!!!

the king of rock, god of rock. most talented ass on the planet!

he only had to whack his guitar twice before it asploded. build quality isnt the same as the 60's :'(

Note that he smashed his Fender on the edge of a speaker box, that would split any guitar, no matter the building year. Note also that he holds the body vertically, again making it easier to break. When you smash a guitar holding it vertically, the instrument can take a lot more abuse.

he smashed his guitars on monitors usually, and he rarely ever smashed Gibson's, he just beat them into submission.

If I remember correctly, the smashing at 0:25 was in Tokyo, where he smashed his last guitar ever, he doesn't do it anymore.

d'ya think i will samsh my gibson or fender?? not any more

Yes,He makes an ass of himself,but the good kind of ass,when it's funny and you get respect for it

professional revolutionaries

rock is entertaining, energizing, fucked up and weird, and that's way we all want it to be.
