"do you think the band will ever get back on the road?" "no. no chance" hate to break it to you bro

Money talks and bullshit walks, seen them twice unfortunately without Keith and John.

[@feefee71]

That's a good vid, it's refreshing to see an honest interview... And they did get back together, despite Townshend saying he wished he didn't!

[@azwris]

One of the best in the whole music industry. A true example for all present & future artists.

[@jaminova_1969]

Becuase of this concert, the Who reunited and I was able to see them Live at Giants Stadium in 1989!

[@bradforddillman7671]

Roger, I was in the Philly crowd and it was hot as hell. Just as we were watching you belt into “Love Rein O’er Me,” on the London video feed, they turned the fire houses on the crowd and it was like heaven. I’ll never forget that moment.

[@miakiceh8069]

The world should know that you're not just a performer; first and foremost you're a humanitarian! KUDOS! Thanks for sharing your talents and chosing to endure this emotional upset for such a good cause. Blessings upon you and yours.

The Greatest front man of the greatest group of all time.

[@colingeddes2172]

Yeah along with mick jagger. Daltrey is effing awesome in every aspect. Great great frontman.

[@timburr4453]

Love Daltrey and The Who but he wasn't even the best frontman on stage that day

[@Musicandguitars2745]

@@timburr4453 he wasn’t on that day but you’ve got to remember queen for fresh of the back of a stadium tour and the who were in a really tricky place and hadn’t played in a long time

[@robertnobody]

Great video, I never saw that before. Roger didn't realize at the time The Who would reunite in 1989 for a 25-city tour dubbed The Kids Are Alright Tour: 1964-1989.

What a Day that Must have BEEN!! If I Had been older by 5Yrs, I Would have sold my soul 2B there!!

[@eily_b]

You don't that amount of honesty in interviews these days anymore.

[@asjeable]

Awe...feel kinda sad for him...

[@juliemarini5478]

The Who!

[@ahenricks918]

Townshend broke up the Who not Daltrey.

[@jengable4888]

It is refreshing to hear his honesty about the band break up. What is Roger Daltrey up to now ? Does anyone know ? The Who was great !

[@Twotontessie]

Great dude

[@ikki-1985]

THE WHO

[@marek9002]

The Who is the best band in the world

[@charlie9712]

One of my great mates! Amazing interview from an AMAZING day! -Bri

[@r.fantobasse3648]

Hello Brian, what do you think about u2 and the edge?

[@jamesviola79]

The way he talks reminds me more of a footballer than a rock star.

[@berkc06]

Still waiting for Eric Clapton interview

[@sloooog]

In a different interview, with Paul Gambaccini, he stated that he received the call from Bob Geldof 'and he swore at me' - so everyone elaborates a bit ....

[@thorzyan]

I love the Wizard!

[@barbaracrespo5828]

🙋👍🏾

[@WHOMEWHOYOU]

I watched The Who !

[@ianhowellvideo1651]

Post the performance of 'Pinball Wizard'! 35 years on and the Wembley crowd are still the only people in the world that heard/saw it.

[@modo03]

Here you go Ian..Complete audio and some video footage too!Enjoy kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYaraH6CgLdplbs&ab_channel=LiveAidArchive kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHecnIOknqaFbaM&ab_channel=LiveAidWizard

[@ianhowellvideo1651]

​@@modo03 Thanks! That's the first time I've heard it since the day. The audio I hear there sounds like audience capture. I think the Band Aid crew filmed it but didn't have high quality audio because of the power cut perhaps?

[@_Thri11s_]

Fuck yeah Roger!!!

[@willpayne6249]

Do Freddie Mercury please.

[@LouserTV]

Woah, easy on the Springsteen there bruh!

Poor guy
