The Who's Roger Daltrey, 81, reveals sad health battle live on stage during charity concert


The Who's Roger has admitted he's enduring a health battle while performing at a charity concert in London on Thursday.

The legendary singer, 81, and his iconic band are currently performing a limited run of shows at the Royal Albert Hall in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust, of which he's been involved with for decades. He revealed the pair may take inspiration from Sir Elton John, who hung up his microphone after his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, which comprised of 333 shows and ended in July 2023, having begun in September 2018. Roger said: 'The £32 million raised from these concerts has been the foundation for the 28 specialised units within the NHS, as well as specialist nurses and youth workers to be there for a young person when cancer has turned their world upside down.'
