Roger Daltrey
We weren't wealthy but we definitely weren't poor. We were incredibly rich because there was a wonderful community in Shepherd's Bush, where I grew up. All my friends were into villainy and crime.
Roger Daltrey
Rock n' roll seems to have changed society much more than any politician, I think it really has.
