Roger was never heavily into drugs.
“He was talking about his generation.”
But don’t be fooled again.
“Roger Daltry... Who is he? ;-)”
You mean “Who are You.”
Professionals - Waiting for a Friend (Bodie & Doyle) - Roger Daltrey

Harry Potter - Pinball Wizard (Quiddich) - The Who

Did they also play in the world’s loudest rock band?
I don’t remember Daltrey saying anything against Jews or Israel. But the other Roger(Waters) is probably who you’re thinking about.
My bad. Sorry.
I was quoting a line from “Pinball Wizard.” 😏
what makes him so good?

Ok...This is 4 nights ago at the Royal Albert Hall concert. Go to the 7:10 mark. Who else can scream like that at 81?
I don’t know, what makes him so good.
Dang! He’s still got it. My BFF had a huge crush on Roger when we were teenagers and she would always melt during the “Won’t Get Fooled Again” scream.
I saw The Who a few times in my youth - in DC, Philly and Houston. They put on great, high energy shows.
Lol. I should have recognized it. I listen to bits and pieces of that album quite a lot back then
Some areas of the Tommy musical are very close to feeling like songs about God.
“Listening To You, I Feel The Music!” has always affected me deeply. , It’s the kind of song that could also be chanted.
They who?
Yes, that was one of the albums I played in my room as a tween. Even then, I saw that it was making fun of the idolization of rock stars/celebrities but dang the music was good.
“See Me, Feel Me/Listening to You” was great in concert. They used lasers - cutting edge stuff back then.
I saw The Who a few times in my youth...

I saw a lot of acts during my misspent youth but never did see The Who.... a regret as I think I have all their albums.
On the other hand, it’s not too late... just need to fly somewhere and try to snap some tickets!
None of us will.
You had a great run my friend
I’m almost blind at 67
Cataracts
It happens
I can relate to that... :(
