Pete Townshend once wrote “I hope I die before I get old.” Now the 64-year-old guitarist and songwriter for British rock band The Who says he is working on a new musical about aging.
Townshend said Tuesday that “Floss” would focus on a musician and his troubled relationship with his wife, who runs a riding stable.
Songs from “Floss” will be featured on a new Who album due next year, and Townshend said he was in talks with New York producers about staging the show in 2011.
