Townshend on old rockers touring

Pete Townshend has told Rolling Stone he would not pay to see Bob Dylan, the Stones or The Who, dismissing older artists as self-congratulatory.

Pete Townshend, slightly tongue in cheek me thinks, when asked by Rolling Stone magazine about the number of classic artists currently touring, says: "I don't want to go out and see Bob Dylan. I don't want to go out and see the Stones. I wouldn't pay money to go see The Who, not even with new songs". They, he said, are all "old guys in their self-congratulatory mode".
