True, Pete seems to be the spontaneous type. I think he took too
much delight (watch as he recounts the story) in tormenting Roger. Roger,
at the time an actor, was acting - and he wanted Pete to play a role.
I think Mr. Townshend was being his usual pain in the --- in not
humouring Roger. Just ONE GESTURE - a nod of the head, a step in Roger's
direction, even leaning that way - could have made everything hunky-dory for
Roger for probably a fortnight, but Noooooo.
That's the way the Who are (were?). Gotta love 'em.
