OUT ON THE TOWNSHEND: Pete Townshend doesn't like the nightlife?

A dirty lie. This weekend he was all over the clubs with an eclectic crowd that included Joan Rivers, Robert Foxworth, Bill Irwin and the cast of the Broadway show “The Who's Tommy,” following a benefit performance for the California-based La Jolla Playhouse, where the show was born.

Townshend may be trying to relax between recording sessions for his new album for Arista Records.

At Cleopatra Supper Club, Townshend danced up a storm with Rivers, we hear.

Much later, he was spied partying up with the queens of drag at Club USA.
