Happy 80th birthday to the legendary guitarist and songwriter, Pete Townshend! It's hard to believe that the teenage rebel who smashed his guitar on stage is now entering his eighties. But age certainly hasn't slowed down your rockstar spirit and creative genius. Here's to many more years of killer riffs and iconic windmill guitar moves. Keep on smashing, Pete! Cheers to you on this special day.
