The feeling onstage was loose and a little goofy, with Daltrey knocking over and cursing his mike stand and later stopping a song because he’d forgotten to put in his earpiece. Roger Daltrey is coming to America in late August for a rare solo tour.

The tour started last week and has just two more dates. He’s also a fine player, sharing guitar duties with Frank Simes. He sounds like Pete and he looks like Pete, but he wasn’t trying to be Pete - he took the lead vocal on “Going Mobile” and made it his own. He was like the backup shortstop who gets a chance to start a few games and goes on a tear. Simon Townsend, Pete’s younger brother and a longtime guitarist with the Who, got a rare chance to step out front, and made the most of it. Pete wasn’t there, but they had the next best thing. He played with most of the band that’s been backing the Who for the last few years - minus drummer Zak Starkey and, of course, Pete Townsend, Daltrey’s partner in the Who and the guy who wrote most of the songs.
