Roger Daltrey Wows 150 Guests
April 11, 2008
In return for a fabulous donation by Deutschebank to the Teenage Cancer Trust, rock legend Roger Daltrey laid on a private gig to 150 invited guests the Elgar Restaurant. After a short auction of luxury items which successfully emptied many a well-fleeced pocket for the TCT, Roger took to the stage at 1130pm with his band – Simon Townshend (guitar/mandolin/backing vocals), Danny Thompson (bass), John Rabbit Bundrick (keyboards) and Billy Nichols (guitar/backing vocals).
Danny said "It's impossible for me to adequately describe what a joy it was, being with real rock icons and playing, amongst other songs, 'Pinball Wizard'...I just couldn't stop grinning and felt 17 again. As usual when you meet genuinely great people they are totally natural and fun to be with, Roger Daltrey, Simon Townsend, Billy Nicholls and 'Rabbit' John Bundrick made me very welcome and I was flattered indeed to be invited for this special occasion.....thanks chaps!.....But I'm not getting a Bass-guitar".
"I would also like to thank Bob Pridden and Alan Rogan for their genuine and friendly assistance".
