Episode #27. On this episode, we're throwing away the playbook and devoting the entire show to an in-depth interview with the one and only Pete Townshend. Pete talks candidly with Mark and Alan about his relationship with the guitar, the future of The Who, the possibility of another tour, "Tommy" on Broadway, and so much more. In this extended conversation, he tells the story of both the first and last guitars he ever smashed on stage, and reflects on Tommy, how the current Broadway version connects with today’s audience, and how he now relates to the music and lyrics. Pete also talks about his relationship with Roger Daltrey, his love of pop music, and the importance of “play.”
