Pete Townshend Roger Quotations

John Entwistle told me shortly before he died that he would find it hard to offer songs for the Who to record because he could no longer allow Roger (or me) to comment on them in any way at all.

Roger and I (will) meet in mid-December to play what we have written, ... If we move ahead from there, we may have a CD ready to release in the spring. If the recording works out, we will tour with the usual band in the first half of 2005.

I simply believe we have a duty to go on, to ourselves, ticket buyers, staff, promoters, big and little people. I also have a duty to myself and my dependent family and friends. I also want to help guide Roger and the rest of the band at this time, all of whom have been shaken by John's death.

If I keep at it, with luck we should see a great new Who record before I drop dead. What helps is that I love Roger and he loves me and we are both willing to work and wait.
