This is odd for two reasons.

First, it’s kinda late.  Second, Pete Townshend said WHAT!?!

In a new magazine interview The Who’s  Pete Townshend (the guy credited with inventing the guitar windmill)  has declared that he wishes he had never joined the band.

Townshend said that he thinks that despite the band’s legacy he thinks he’d have done even better as a solo performer. He also said would be in better health now if he’d gone down that route.

“What would I have done differently? I would never have joined a band,” he said. “Even though I am quite a good gang member and a good trooper on the road, I am bad at creative collaboration.”

He added: I would have made a much more effective solo performer and producer working the way Brian Eno has worked. I would be less physically damaged today.

“My ears, right wrist and shoulder would work more efficiently. In all other respects I am in extremely good shape.”

Well, Pete.  Once you build that time machine, let me know.
