the kids are all spite.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Can’t argue with a word he said.

[2banana]

The Who’s songs are fairly gritty and working class.

Not the typical sex and drugs shite.

Met him many years ago at a used record store, alone and buying albums believe it or not. Him and Townsend apparently do the same thing. The hollywood Silverlake area has a number of them. From our conversation, he does things himself and does not need an assistant for simple tasks.

[CatOwner]

I was about to disagree a bit when I saw the title of this thread, then I read the "woke generation" is creating a "miserable world" for themselves and everyone else. The "everyone else" part is the biggest concern. People have been making themselves miserable for centuries.

[Lurker]

Roger is quite the American history buff.

We’ve had the golden era. There’s no doubt about that.”
Agreed. There needs to be a free exchange of ideas. Open debate. Agree to disagree, etc. but “woke” folks won’t have it.
LeVar burton corrected the term “cancel” culture to “ consequence” culture They mean to make you pay for not towing the line. Soon we’ll have struggle sessions and the Left will celebrate.

[EQAndyBuzz]

The Woke Generation have no clue who Roger Daltry is.

[frank ballenger]

God bless him. There are so few of us good people it’s so good to find another one.

[romanesq]

Seen Daltry over some years and from high school days to later, he never failed to deliver.

His live performance capability is a marvel. Only in the last few years did he start to lose some of his gift.

He’s an incredible performer and I have tons of respect for him not only speaking out here but how he delineated it to the degree he does.

[max americana]

He would prefer it this way and would be insulted if a woke wimp listened to any of his songs.

[babble-on]

Roger is a regular guy.

[Colinsky]

The Who’s songs are fairly gritty and working class. Not the typical sex and drugs shite.

Daltry has pointed out that among all of the Who's albums there's not one love song.

[Luke21]

The voice of truth. Very rare these days.

[Mr. Mojo]

<< Daltry has pointed out that among all of the Who’s albums there’s not one love song. >>

How about My Wife?

“My life’s
In jeopardy
Murdered in cold blood is what I’m gonna be
I ain’t been home since Friday night
and now my wife
Is comin’ after me”

Eh, scratch that.

[Publius]

How about “Squeezebox”?

[DJ MacWoW]

Roger played Hugh Fitzcairn on the TV series Highlander. He’s an excellent actor with great comedic timing. Nice to see that he’s also a “thinking man”.

[Mr. Mojo]

Heh, yup, there’s another.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

“Won’t Get Fooled Again” is one of the all-time great political songs. “Meet the new boss/same as the old boss” is one hell of a punchline.
