Written by topstorieslouisville on
Roger Daltrey isn’t The Who’s wordsmith, but his introduction to Saturday night’s solo concert at the Horseshoe Southern Indiana’s Showroom was spot on: “There’s enough misery out there,” Daltrey said just after walking onstage to a standing ovation from the near-capacity crowd. “Let’s have some fun.” And for the next 1:45, Daltrey, his surprisingly tight band and the mostly middle-age audience did just that during an 18-song set that mixed Who classics and rarities with releases from Daltrey’s solo career and some of the 65-year-old’s favorites by the likes of Johnny Cash and Mose Allison.

Pete Townshend plans new musical "Floss"

LONDON (Reuters) - The Who guitarist Pete Townshend, behind rock operas "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia", is writing a new musical "Floss", about getting old. "As a 19-year-old, with 'My Generation', I wrote the most explicitly ageist song in rock," Townshend wrote on his band's website (http://www.thewho.com). The 1965 hit song includes the line "I hope I die before I get old". "At 64, I now want to take on aging and mortality, using the powerfully angry context of rock'n'roll."
