Roger Daltrey: The Who Will Play Live In 2010 Add to My Fav Bands List

Roger Daltrey has revealed that The Who plan to play live next year.

Speaking on the band's official website, the 65-year-old said his upcoming solo shows don't spell the end for The Who and he plans to team up with Pete Townshend for shows in 2010.

Speaking about his solo dates with Pete Townshend's younger brother Simon, Daltrey said: "We're (The Who) doing something next year... I have to be in tip top form and the only way to go out and do that is to go out and sing.

“So, I got a band together with Simon Townshend, and we'll just go out and play some of my own stuff.”

He continued: “I'll do a few Who tracks, but I'll mostly play my own stuff... I'll do, probably, 25 per cent of it Who songs; I don't know. I've played a lot of my solo stuff and there are bloody great songs there and they'll be great on stage.

“The way I will do Who songs will be the way I would have if I had done them on my own."
