Mike:

Must have been a lawsuit...but more properly it should not have had anyone's name but Dixon's.

>Unfortunately, you are right.........but I still want to at least try, for Pete's sake.

Jo:

Oh, no stones thrown from here...I just have this feeling that 10 years from now, all we're going to hear is how Pete likes to fondle little children (with the trademark smirk). Like when people would tell me they heard about this, but they didn't believe it, but "he IS gay after all." How many times has THAT rumour been dispelled at this point?

Maybe. In my personal experience, it's been Zep fans. "Oh, The Who are a Zep wannabe band." You can imagine how that makes you feel, when you're 15 or so. I would actually sputter in outrage, spewing facts at them. But you know how I am.

>and they aren't the most popular, so... fuck the people that makes the popular.

I don't know about that. If they weren't popular, then we probably wouldn't have gotten The Who at all. Or, at least, we in the US would have never heard them. As much as I might dislike many of the side effects, money DOES drive exposure. If Pete hadn't made money being a Rock star, he probably would have been a author or something.

> are the fucking prostitutes, so fuck them!)

Oh, they're all prostitutes, really. Remember the 1989 Tommy Anniversary tour...

> type of people, just interested in your favorite zeppelin song if you have one. 

Tangerine. I've lived that song. It's Zep's version of Sunrise.
