Pete Townshend calls Pete Doherty a fuckwit

Pete Townshend has described Babyshambles frontman Peter Doherty as the ultimate rock 'n' roll nihilist and fuckwit at the launch of Hyde Park Calling.

Talking of Doherty, the Babyshambles man has been labelled a 'fuckwit' by that other famous Pete, Mr Pete Townshend. Speaking at the launch of the previously reported new 'Hyde Park Calling' event, The Who man told reporters: "Peter Doherty is the ultimate rock 'n' roll nihilist, the ultimate rock 'n' roll fuckwit. It is important we acknowledge that this business loves to kill people. But I don't worry about him. Maybe it's not as bad as it looks. I don't know Pete but I know Kate quite well, and I think they know how to get help when they need it."
