He's been pretty much deaf for a long time, long before The Who broke up....one of the shows they did, a pyro charge was overloaded and pretty much destroyed his hearing.
I actually happened on the Smothers Brothers TV show, when Keith Moon's drums blew up when Pete was too close to them... Then Tommy Smothers came out and smashed his guitar!

The Who have been touring this past summer. They did Quadrophenia again. I thought they were terrible. Daultry is shot vocally and looks like he's into the bottle. Townsend playing Fender Custom Shop equipment instead of LesPaul's and Hiwatt Amp's is a BIG difference. I have seen them through out and I thought they Blew tonight. But not as much as Mick's Miss you. AHAHAHAHAH
The Goo Goo Doll's were the best band of the night hands down.
