His songwriting and stage performance gave Rock a kick up the arse. And gave the world the Windmill guitar move lol.

I was just watching his performance of "Drowned" on acoustic guitar on YouTube - that is amazing - go check it out. It was from Amnest International's Secret Policeman's Ball.

Once and for all:
Townshend reported that website to the authorities as soon as he found it - there is email evidence of this.
The police scanned all his computers and found nothing.
He and The Who (Roger Daltrey) have done more for children's charities then most celebs - check out his long list of charities at:

He's a great rhythm guitar player and songwriter and I like his vocals - epecially when paired with Daltrey like on the song Baba O'Reilly.

The "Gary Glitter" of guitar

Guitarist? Yes
Vocalist? No

Absolutely extraordinary guitarrist, composer, musician

Blew everyone off the stage at Live8 despite being 150 years old!

The 'Orrible 'Oo - The best band in the world. Pete - The best Musician in the world. Enough said.

A Supergroup member should be able to play their instrument with distinction, sing and write songs. Pete has done this both with The Who and solo
