There were about 12 or 13 original comments on Lucy's post of the German translation and someone came under the name Pete Townshend and made a simple statement saying 'I never said any of it' and we all thought it was a hoax, so Lucy deleted all the comments. So as it turns out, it really was PT and we got the confirmation from Rachel today on her blog. That's all
nothing earth shattering, it just didn't seem like it was a real blog, but them Lucy made the point that it was at the domain of thewho.com and how many people could have had that ? So we talked ourselves into it and then we talked ourselves out of it and back into it again... we just miss him!
Yes, Pete's blog is real, but no, the person who came onto TOWHM and posted "I NEVER SAID ANY OF IT!" re the German article wasn't Pete. He was a Pete imposter. (pun intended) He came on with the profile name Pete Townshend. Leading to a different but very, very similar blog page and blog profile.
The whole issue got confusing because we were mixing apples and oranges. We were throwing the baby out with the bathwater! LOL
I am having a good laugh now. the Keith Moon blog is the best. Yes, I think we all just really miss Pete and the fake blog thingy threw us all into a tizzy only because we really respect and value him.
You are correct. Rachel said that she didn't think Pete made the comment on our blog and said she would check it out with Pete. No further word except the announcement of Pete's new blog...(which I see now that you need to be invited to blog on)....was a valid Pete blog.
LOL Lin & Lucy, short story, I used to belong to an online gaming group, a very creative bunch of writers who were writing a story online in the form of roleplay interaction between characters. (Think sims without the avatars, instead rather a chatroom where you played your characters to write the storyline in real time with a master story teller guiding the plot). It was pretty kewl, I was actually involved with 2 storylines/groups, one ended up being cast into a comic book somewhere in England I believe.
Anyway, in one storyline one of my characters was a small wolf cub named *Widdle* (not house/potty trained) who *tawked wike dat*.

I want to clarify what Lin said. :-)

Glad it's all straightned out.
This Pete chap may have been a fake, but I'm bloody well not!
Obviously, Keith.

First Pete, now Keith...
If Entwistle posts a comment I'm gonna start thinking something fishy's going on here!

roflmao!!!
Well, one must now be an "invited reader" to even view the blog.
Easy come, easy go!
*poof* ... just like Magic Man.
Wasn't that fun, tho? Just for the little bit? It's like a roller coaster.
I'm expecting next we'll get:
Here's another clue for you all...the walrus was Paul.
Ooops, wrong band:)
oh dear, he's gone again already. hopefully he'll return...
Ahhh, Ok so Rachel clarified that Pete did say the contents of German article, BUT Pete himself did not come HERE and say anything.
Do I have that correct?
~Lace the kindasortadensesometimes~
LOL Keith. I see you're beaming in from the ether/heaven/cloud 9, so we'll expect you to be nice! :P

Hi everyone!
So it looks as if one has to be "invited" to read Pete's new blog.
Can someone explain that to me? (I've been out of this loop, and the Great Cosmic Loop, for several weeks now....).
How does one get invited, and why aren't we all invited? :)
Love to all from Lee
PS -
I just made the intro to "white city fighting" my ringtone.
way cool!
