Pete Townshend anticipates ten more years in music

Pete Townshend, the 79-year-old guitarist and co-founder of The Who, recently discussed his career and future plans. He stated in an interview that he might have "maybe 10 years left" as a creative artist. Townshend wants to finish various projects before slowing down. The musician is actively working on new art, theater, and music projects. Recently, he collaborated with friend Reg Meuross on a song about Woody Guthrie. Townshend also released an album with the Bookshop band and produced music for the indie group the Wild Things. This week, Townshend's new eight-CD box set will be available. He believes that while the songs are solo pieces, many could also be considered works for The Who. The band is preparing for a pair of charity shows later this month in London, which Townshend admits makes him and fellow bandmate Roger Daltrey nervous. The Who, known for its powerful performances and influence on rock music, has a long history of success. They helped pioneer the concept of rock opera and have released numerous albums and hits since their formation in 1964. The band has been recognized with several awards and honors throughout their career.
