On 18 May 1980, Ian Curtis of Joy Division was found hanged. It was the eve of their proposed visit to America. He left behind a suicide note which read:
“At this moment I wish I were dead. I just can’t cope anymore.”
Cutest grandpa's ever🖤🎯i love them so much
At the 2019 Houston show, Roger struggled a lot with his ragweed allergy while singing Who Are You, and he was basically either gasping or sneezing between every line. He managed to complete the song and sang pretty well but was visibly frustrated. So as soon as Pete finished playing the guitar, he went over and patted Roger on the back to comfort him😢and before the next song started, Pete told the audience:
"I want you all to do something for Roger. Just tell him that it's a banner of beat and sweat (he turned around to face Roger), so nobody gives a fuck if you ain’t gonna talk or perform. We fucking love you."
I’m literally in tears because this kind of conflicted furious dreaded strong yet unrestrained and even unrequited and completely unfathomable love really did exist in the world for so many years I just?!!! I can’t?!!!!
I love you, Keith Moon. I love you, John Entwistle. I love you, Roger Daltrey. I love you, Pete Townshend.
the who >>> the beatles
Jacqueline is so tiny hehe I know Roger teased her for it🤣🤣
I was reading “Dear Boy the life of Keith Moon” and it talks about Kim Kerrigan A LOT so I decided to post a picture of each member of The Who with their first wife. Probably the stupidest thing I have ever done but WHATEVER
(From top to bottom) Keith Moon and Kim Kerrigan, Pete Townshend and Karen Astley, Roger Daltrey and Jacqueline Rickman, and John Entwistle and Alison Wise.
Nils-Gustav Pålsson, 14 years old at the time, and his brother Jan-Erik who was 3 years older, went to see The Who in Örebro. Jan-Erik had arranged a photo-permit, and before the show he went backstage to talk with the band members. He was invited to a party at the hotel afterward.
After the show, Nils-Gustav went home, while Jan-Erik followed The Who to the hotel. But the manager at the hotel had obviously heard of The Who and the party was canceled. Jan-Erik took the opportunity to invite them back to his parents’ house.
Nils-Gustav:
“I had fallen asleep when the doorbell rang. Thinking it was my brother who had forgotten his keys, I went to open it in my pajamas. When I opened the door, I stood eye-to-eye with John and Keith. My brother and his friends had hidden around the corner. I was of course very surprised. But my brother and his friends stepped forward and everybody came in. We all had tea - it was all we could offer. John and Keith were very polite. They gladly posed with us kids on the sofa. Afterward, they walked back to the hotel.”
I got my first Who vinyl!! I love it so much, and I'll cherish it forever. 🎯
*again, in Austin Powers' voice* YEAH BABY, YEAHHH

London, England
The Who recorded "Substitute" at Olympic Studios.
The line "Although she may be cute/She's just a substitute" from the Smokey Robinson song "Tracks of My Tears" gave Pete Townshend the inspiration for the song.

I would kill to know how they acted (especially Keith) on that ride.

A whole year has passed since our displacement in the Gaza Strip and our conditions are getting worse day by day
Hello my dear ones.. My name is Khalil from the afflicted Gaza Strip
I live with my family in miserable conditions that lack the most basic necessities of life. Although I feel ashamed to ask for help and donations, I am unfortunately forced to do so. My mother was killed in this war, and my two brothers were injured earlier. My children are suffering from the horrors of displacement. Please do not make us feel that we are alone in this tragedy, I am confident that my appeal will not stop with you, but you will share it to support me and remember that any amount, no matter how small, can help us. A lot.
