Stereogum street team Pete Townshend and Rachel Fuller brought their “Attic Jams” to La Zona Rosa last night, wowing with Who classics “Drowned” and “I Can’t Reach You,” a tune Townshend claimed he had never before played in public. Keynote Pete also duetted with Joe Purdy on “Let My Love Open The Door.”

The worst kept secret of the week was the Who axeman’s rumored cameo with NME buzz boys The Fratellis at today’s SPIN showcase at Stubb’s. Our man Jon Bahr was on hand with his fancy SLR, and delivered these great shots of “The Seeker.” We hoped to bring you our SouthBy coverage chronologically, but these were too good to sit on, so log on later for our Thursday recap.
