If you go see the Who dont smoke pot, Daltrys allergic. Kills his voice and he gets pissed off. This looked like an amazing show, orchestra, Tommy, acoustic set, Quadrophenia

Totally understanding his situation and his right to say what ever he pleases, telling people who've probably paid exorbitant prices for a ticket "F you" is pretty tactless.

There's plenty of small, stealthy vapes out there for weed and oils, (all practically odorless,undetectable ) this is quite an easy problem to solve.

Pretty normal for the Who. At least they didn't get the Abbie Hoffman at Woodstock treatment! Glad to see the old guys still the pissed off scrappers they always were.

I once did guitars for a local production of Tommy - worked with leased show music - above the clavichord part, in Pete's handwriting, was written "F*ck you clavichord". It was kind of like meeting him in person.

I staggered back to the underground
The breeze blew back my hair
I remembered throwing punches around
And preachin' from my chair

Who are you
Who who who who

In the age of edibles and knowledge of such, smoking is so not necessary these days. Even vaping is a smoke of sorts and probably shouldn't be inflicted on others. So agree with Roger, although F off to big paying fans is a bit harsh. But they break they rules so he has that right.

Imagine him doing that at Woodstock, in a vastly different era? hahahahahhaha, he would have been the Anti-Christ

I remember him playing a school teacher on TV's "That 70"s Show" and taking the same stance only to wind up smoking pot with them in the basement. funny stuff.

"I don’t like this job. I don’t like being on stage with The Who. I hate it. I hate touring. I hate you. I hate the music. I hate Roger. I hate everything about rock ‘n’ roll. I think it stinks. But I’m really good at it.’”

-Pete Townshend

Ya he did the same at my last WHO show. He was very polite about it though.
