Re: The Who Mailing List Digest V5 #264
I don't know if Pete has split (again) from Karen, but at his recent gig
at the Shpherds Bush Empire, during one chat between songs, he did say
that he'd 'had a phone call from his wife earlier today - she's in
Italy, with her new boyfriend, visting his parents - they're younger
than she is', which sounded pretty bitchy, except that he'd prefaced the
remarks by saying 'I had a call from my wife today - which was really
nice, very sweet'. The whole thing came over as bitter-sweet but
affectionate. And as for the smouldering looks he was getting from
Tracey (gtr/vocals) - whew... the soles of MY shoes were virtually
melting, and I was thirty rows from the front...
