Hey, Evin and Kevin. It's time to stop your self-promotion campaign against Pete Townshend
Two individual's are trying to prevent The Who from playing at the Superbowl, claiming Pete Townshend was never cleared of charges in 2003 regarding paying for a viewing a child pornography site. In fact, he was never charged. Read about the facts here.
"After four months of investigation by officers from Scotland Yard's child protection group, it was established that Mr Townshend was not in possession of any downloaded child abuse images. He has fully co-operated with the investigation."

Pete Townshend's case was resolved in 2003. He's been honored by VH-1, The Kennedy Center and toured the US at least three times since then. I want these two guys to stop their self-promotion campaign at the expense of Pete. Kudos to David Whitley at the NFL Fanhouse for getting it right.http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2009/12/29/who-are-you-to-ban-townshend-from-super-bowl/?synd=1
Meanwhile, London Council to commemorate Townshend.
See you at the Superbowl, Pete!

Great picture of you and the man!
No, it was not funny at the time! It's a shame this has to get so much airtime again, but I'm viewing it as an opportunity to try and inform people who don't know the actual story.
Thank you for being willing to consider all sides of the story. I really appreciate that.
