The lead singer of The Who talks to Mark Beaumont about his new solo tour, seeing Keith Moon in Liam Gallagher, politics, Partygate, and why smashing up guitars broke his heart

Far from an ego fest, Daltrey sees the tour as an extension of his philanthropic work. He initially organised it in order to give work to a band and crew after two lean pandemic years. “Musicians have had a real rough two years, really rough,” he explains. “Most of them are self-employed, they got no furlough, no anything. It’s been brutal on them. So if I can go out there and employ 10 musicians [and] 10 road crew for a month, I’m gonna do it.

Not really since no one, relatively speaking, buys music any more. Music streaming platforms are mostly bot factories. The major players/payers get most of those plays but smaller artists get some bot plays too. It's getting a little vs getting nothing at all in the past.

So what you gonna do about it Rog?

It's all that bloody downstreaming Rog

I was robbing them blind before subscription services. Now I make a donation. Learn to code or tour bitch.

Songs are now intangible like data, seems once its out there its up for grabs.

Who owns your music?

Brexit hasn’t helped either, Roger! 🤡

Ya think 🤦‍♀️

Is it 2003?

I am looking for a guy to communicate and not only Who is brave write)
