I uploaded a video clip of Pete Townshend, Rachel Fuller and Mikey Cuthbert on their Internet chat show, In The Attic. The clip features Rachel introducing a video made by Paul Biscardi, a fellow blogger, the song for the video is one of mine called Walkin On The Grid It was written about the experience reading and blogging with Pete during publication of his online novella, The Boy Who Heard Music. When the song ends, Pete speaks about the video and how much he liked the song. It was the nicest birthday present I ever had.
I've been a fan of The Who and Pete Townshend for many years, listening to The Who in the early 70's when I was about 8. It was Pete who inspired me to pick up a guitar. My Mum was a huge Who fan, she was the person who brought their records into our house. I eventually took Mum to see them on one of their farewell tours (1982 - LA colosseum) and she loved it, although, she's always been a bigger fan of Roger than Pete. Pete's always been the driving force behind The Who and a huge influence for me.
