New Who Album May Appear Next Spring

Entertainment - Reuters

TORONTO (Billboard) - The Who's first studio album since 1982 may finally see the light of day next spring.

According to guitarist Pete Townshend (news)'s official Web site (http://www.petetownshend.co.uk), the set carries the provisional title "WHO2," perhaps a reference to the fact that he and vocalist Roger Daltrey (news) are the lone surviving original members of the legendary rock act.

"Roger and I (will) meet in mid-December to play what we have written," Townshend said on the site. "If we move ahead from there, we may have a CD ready to release in the spring. If the recording works out, we will tour with the usual band in the first half of 2005."

Townshend and Daltrey have been working in earnest on new material since 2002. In March, the pair released their first new songs in more than 20 years, "Real Good Looking Boy" and "Old Red Wine," on the Geffen compilation "Then and Now."

Townshend is at work on a variety of other projects, including an animated feature based on his short story "The Boy Who Heard Music." He has also begun writing his autobiography, which he intended to pen in chronological order but reconceived in the wake of his 2003 arrest on child pornography charges.

"My autobiography now offers me the chance to lay down my life story and place recent events in proper context," Townshend said. "I have had a long and lumbering life -- this book will take time."

Two theatrical concepts are also in the works, one involving British and North American theatrical productions of the rock opera "Quadrophenia" and the other regarding a "new musical spectacular for Las Vegas" with veteran Broadway director Des McAnuff.

every year a law is introduced to make Indiana be in one time zone - each year it gets dropped in committee.

Fucking NTL; our internet's been down for the past three days, and I just can't be arsed to trawl through all 23 pages of posts - if I've missed anything of note, then please fill me in.

Clarky - A while back you were talking someone about influences and how you haven't played along with Vai/Satch/Malmsteen in years in order to hone your unique voice on the instrument. Well, I'm totally with you!!! In fact, the only one of those three that I've evn listened to in the past few months is Malmsteen; recently I've been listening to and playing (or rather trying to play...) loads of jazz. Pat Metheny, John Scofield, George Benson, Wes Montgomery, Larry Carlton, Mike Stern, and (slightly less jazz) Robben Ford. Even some non-guitar music like Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Dave Weckl Band, etc. As a result, my playing has taken a drastic detour - particularly in the area of phrasing. It's funny cause I never thought I'd get into jazz in such a big way, but I'm fucking loving it at the moment. So much so, in fact, that I want my next guitar to either be a really nice Strat or an Archtop... lol

bahduh - Sorry for missing you in the chat room. I didn't see your message right away...

Do you want a Google Gmail account? They give you 1000 MB of space for free. Email me privately if you're interested and I'll send you an invite (this offer is open to everyone reading this, by the way...just email me).

LOL... Well, I just bought Halo 1...I'm nowhere near done with the single player game, and I still have fun playing the multiplayer version of it. I don't need to buy another game yet.

I'm actually not WAY into computer games. There are a few old games (Civilization II, for example) that I could play forever...I don't need to buy new ones. I'll probably get a lot of crap for saying that, but oh well. ;-) I'd rather spend my money on CDs or DVDs, I guess.

I saw Pay It Forward a few years ago in my 12th grade Government / Economics class. Our teacher let us watch that, and we had a discussion about it instead of taking a final. I agree with you...it's a great movie.

You are correct.

Terrorists are often taking the easy way out, though. Why don't they get together in a big group, walk up to the leader they don't agree with, and just complain? They'd probably be killed, but that's no different than what happens to them after a suicide bombing.

Why do they take out innocent people? They are cowards...they're scared to confront the source of their problems, so instead they pick on people who can't defend themselves.

cuthbert1776: apologies accepted ...I knew that I could count on you not to force me really rant (adult-really) ;-)

Okay, perhaps I didn't specify my definition of "unnecessary bad news" enough (judging by Austin's (DoTheStu) and your first responces) and I'm too tired to do that now...

I also do see the value in the reporting of negative news -> like I said I'm in a such official position that I have to know what's going on in the world (and in my own country)...

...and I ain't gonna OVERprotect my children...that protecting thing and the difficulties of it was just a cry of distress...and was just half an hour ago reminded me by the size of a cat tabloid headlines (full of unnecessary bullshit) on the supermarket (on the front door and on every paydesk). Both my sons (8 and 7 years of age) are selective too about what they could/should do. I'm glad to hear you are doing fine with your children. I have to be very grateful for having so wonderful wife supporting me so well in raising our kids. Actually she has studied more pedagogics than me (not meaning, that you should study that to understand how to raise a child)

...so, actually I don't have a problem. I just told my opinion and asked you people for yours.

Your educational message wasn't a waste though, for there are many youngsters on this forum whom are still to become parents ;-)

To another subject:

We have summertime here (I think the whole Europe has). The range of variation on the amount of daylight is huge here up north, so it gives reason for waking up earlier in summertime. It's ok, no problems for me about it.

Everybody: Yesterday I was on a business trip and in the evening I got drunk, which led e.g. to making polemic (unintented) on this forum. Now I'm back home with my beautiful wife, drinking beer (perceptibly less than yesterday), sitting at my computer while our kids just fell asleep...what the fuck am I doing? Bye!

To Joe and the Guys: Just want to say y'all sound great I love your music a definite ***** rating! Love always, Brenda!

Scott Peterson is guilty....... Wow that is a shock. No motive, or weapon found....

Poor bastard is going to fry when O.J. walked. Thats racism.

pp0, If you were talking to me, and you can afford as JSX & JS 1200...there's a great place to start to achieve his sound. I think www.Guitargeek.com has his set up, but I'm not sure how recent it is maybe...2000...still, anyday sounding like Joe's got to be a good one!

Then practice about 6-13 hours a day, and you've got it licked!

Oh Dear, Oh Dear the endless hours of practice, a lifetime of dedication!

Hope I've Helped!

Now, I'm off for 3 hours of practice.

Love, Peace & Happiness!
