Pete Townsend says it could be curtains for The Who

Pete Townsend to end The Who And this time he means it.

The Who star told The Guardian that the tinnitus he has suffered for many years as a result ofThe Who’s super-loud concerts may soon get the best of him. “If my hearing is going to be a problem, we’re not delaying shows. We’re finished,” the legendary guitarist says. “I can’t really see any way around the issue.”

Musictoob assumes this has nothing to do with the problems the band faced before their Superbowl show when a local child abuse charity campaigned against the band performing. Townsend is on a child abuse watch list in the UK after he viewed child pornography online.

Still it’s sad. Musictoob is goning to lay it on the line. The Who are the best live rock band this site has ever seen bar none. There, we said it.
