    Sorry, that's just a real touchy subject with Who fans. There are still so many people who sling horrible accusations around. And I had the incredible privilege of meeting Pete before the VH1 show and he's such a wonderful man that I kind of jumped on anything that looked like more criticism.

    So I apologize for being a rude bitch.

    Don't apologize
    I'm right there with you.
    It's a really touchy subject and I hate having to defend Pete to a bunch of waterheads who don't realize the pain those accusations caused Pete Townshend and his wonderful family.

    Who fans have a right to have a "stick up their ass" about this subject as I'm sure Pearl Jam fans would be outraged if a member of Pearl Jam was attacked the same way Pete Townshend was.

    I thought they sounded amazing myself. But isn't Pete like almost deaf?
    He hears pretty well. His hearing loss is high frequency tones.

    It's just one of those things that every time you think it's gone away somebody brings it up again. And I just cringe.

    I noticed that Pete failed to mention Incubus, both in his comments live on the show, and in this e-mail that the article was based on. Just wondering if that was an innocent oversight, or if there was some other reason . . . Does anyone know?

    It drives me up the frigging wall when it's mentioned, espeically by idiots that don't know anything about Pete but they heard the initial accustation and can't let it fucking go.

    I actually wrote Pete immediately after the initial news came out and he was kind enough to write me back within days and thank me for my support

    he also sent me a holiday card that year. That's was a NICE surprise :)

    Now what other MEGA rock star would you expect that from

    not too many, that's for sure

    the man is awesome

    Wow that's so cool!!
    Aside from Eddie and Pete...there is probably no one else that I'd expect that from.
