The Who Iceberg Explained - pt. 1

the iceberg

part 2

requested by uh i forgot tbh anyway i got two hours of sleep last night so this is gonna be awesome. okay so the last three layers of the who iceberdg:

Karen hitting Pete with a wooden spoon

Roger’s suicide attempt at 14

Pete’s 1971 “attempt”

(it’s a bit unclear but I do think it counts in some respects. I have no explanation for the mafia hallucinations and bloody nose like he was sober wtf happened is he schizophrenic 😭)

the vore song

Keith Moon suicide conspiracy

(Why is this band so suicidal) Just a pure tinfoil conspiracy that some fans have that Keith’s death wasn’t an accident because he took like 32 tablets, and the lethal dose is 5. So that's like insane even for Keith Moon. And also because Keith wasn’t happy. Here’s a quote from Pamela Des Barres:

Additionally, the bloody incident with Roger. Potentially could’ve been a first attempt, or truly an accident, though it's still concerning:

Plus, his behavior leading up to his death is quite peculiar. We all know he called Pete (and Roger) (and probably John too) every night to tell them he loved them, which could’ve been a way of saying goodbye and making sure they knew he loved them before he was gone. Again, just playing devil’s advocate i’m not saying that’s what happened

Roger’s blackface and that special word

Roger appeared on CSI as a murderer (i think) who used disguises (/ref) to remain unrecognized. One of the disguises… was a black woman

This is the clip of Roger saying the word idk what the ethics are for sharing a video with the n-word in it though (I’m not black) so I bleeped it out but I don’t know how to edit I just. idk

I don't see anyone in the whoniverse ever talk about this John entwistle side quest in 1985 at the last hurrah nightclub in portland Oregon and I think about it constantly it's like a weird fever dream Ive watched this video once a day since finding it I don't even know how many years ago but I have so many thoughts and questions on it

1.) him talking about smashing his bass into an amp because he was mad at Roger ( he did it with such force ) while this mediocre 80's song plays softly in the background

2.) the way he looks at Dan reed singing and coming near him, he looks offended by his existence lmao

3.) the jean vest on top of his striped button up okayyy

4.) "cmon John play that's bass."

Proceeds to slap in the nastiest bass solo for that's cute on you

5.) how the fuck did we get into the bridge of the song it haunts me

6.) he really needed a paycheck after the who split

7.) the close up of John looking up into the camera melts my insides oh my god my precious weirdo

8.) the fucking French joke he makes is so stupid in the beginning

" Me and John grew up in the backwoods of France hehehehhe jk."

9.) the way Dan Reed belts in the beginning of the song

10.) WELLL I LOVAAHH YOOOO HAIIRRRR

11.) the girls in highschool in fact did not think he was cool

12.) does anyone have a walkman because I wanna take notes

idk it really shouldn't exist I'm happy it does I love telling anyone who asks what my favorite entwistle bass solo is?

" You know that classic bass solo in that's cute on you by Dan reed ft John entwistle."

Also if there is anyone who has ever found the second half of this recording I've spent years looking for it please please please let me know I want to go to the music store with John I'm begging you

And remember that's cute on you 😤😚

Now we know that Neil is the toymaker. I have an inkling that RTD's new era is going to be more balls to the wall crazy than any of us previously thought of.

The doctor Donna thing may be nostalgia bait but on the other hand VERY DEEP CUTS FROM WHO LORE ARE ALSO HAPPENING.

*Rep decided to go on a walk by themself. They wanted to take some time to think about recent events. Telling Offy about Embroidery was probably a bad idea; hopefully, they didn’t do anything drastic. Though Rep felt lucky to have partners that cared for them as much as they cared for their partners.

As Rep walked further down the halls of OSHA, they realized they had absentmindedly walked to the doors of Embroidery’s lab. They knew better than to stick around here alone, so they decided to go head back to their office, but a large figure suddenly grabbed them from behind.

Rep started panicking, they didn’t want to go through that again, however before they could call out for help, a cloth was put over their face and the world went dark around them.*

[Embroidery hesitantly knocks on Reps door]

Rep…sweety…?…Are you in here…?

*Rep opens the door, their eyes are red and puffy. They have likely been crying for a while*

*Rep is lying unconscious in their office. Their body is quickly working on fixing all of the damage done by Embriodery*
