The Who's final US shows under threat as Roger Daltrey is left unimpressed with Pete Townshend after sacking Zak Starkey for a second time
Roger Daltrey, 81, has said he wasn't impressed by Pete Townshend's remark that being in the band after 61 years is like 'flogging a dead horse'.
'I plan to take some much needed time off with my family, and focus on the release of Domino Bones by Mantra Of The Cosmos with Noel Gallagher in May and finishing my autobiography written solely by me. While fans were loving the shows, which were in honour of Roger's Teenage Cancer Trust charity, a source claimed there were a 'few issues with the drumming....and the standard wasn't as high as everyone wanted'. Zak had been set to take the stage with his supergroup Mantra of the Cosmos - including Happy Mondays vocalist Shaun Ryder, 62, Oasis guitarist Andy Bell, 54, percussionist Mark ' Bez' Berry, 60, and Noel Gallagher, 57, - when he received the alarming health alert.
