Less than 24 hours later....

Pete Townshend has restored my faith. Yeah, I know I bitched about it. Pete took the time to respond to my blog and now I'm no longer disappointed (well a little for getting a refund on those tickets). For Pete to take the time to post on my little blog means a lot to me. Anyone who knows me, also is well aware of my affection for The Who. As a teen I drove my sister and my friends nuts by playing Quadrophenia over and over and over....

For some reason Pete has always been my favorite song writer. When I got married, we found an organist who could mix "Let My Love Open the Door" with Bach for our exit from the ceremony. (for those of you who don't know, the song is about God and his love, not "hey baby come back to my place")

In other words, I love this band! Don't get me wrong, I not a Who-Trekkie. Those people people have to live their lives how the see fit. What I have learned from the band is that it is okay to be who you are.

Once again, even if Pete never shows up here again, Thanks for everything Pete! And I do mean everything!

That is really very,very cool. We have a house full of Who fans as well...not top of our list, but way up there. It's too bad you didn't get to see them, but way cool for the blog post. How did he even find you?

Wow! That's incredible. I'm sure he realizes you were disappointed...and rightly so. It's just too bad you can't get to the make-up show.
