“And of course it came back, and I thought, ‘That was interesting. “I just got bored and I thought, ‘I’ve got this thing in my hand that I’m fed up with holding…what do I do with it?’ So I kind of threw it and held onto the cord,” he recalled. “I did it out of pure boredom, actually, because I was on a stage with with two maniacs and a very straight bass player,” Daltrey explained, referring to guitarist Pete Townshend and drummer Keith Moon, who smashed their equipment on stage, and bass player John Entwistle, who just stood there.

“And…it’s good to be reminded of where you started.”įallon also asked Daltrey about his famous onstage trademark of twirling his microphone, throwing it in the air and catching it. “And I was with people of varying abilities…some very good, incidentally - some of them extremely good - and some of them extremely bad,” he laughed. “We were young and we were having so much fun…we’d do anything just to play music.” “What it did for me was remind me of all the reasons why I did this in the first place,” Daltrey said. It’s inspiring and occasionally touching to hear about amateurs living out their rock ‘n’ roll fantasies with Roger Daltrey, Alice Cooper and the like. Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Daltrey explained why he likes playing with a bunch of amateurs at those events.
