Roger Daltrey to play Villa Marina tonight

by isleofman.com 28th July 2011

ROCK legend Roger Daltrey will be appearing at the Villa Marina in Douglas tonight (Thursday).

 

Along with his band he will perform the whole of The Who's classic album Tommy.

 

Isle of Man based singer songwriter Chris Gray has been announced as the support act.

 

Roger, frontman of The Who, last came to the Island in 2007 when The Who performed at the the Peel Bay Festival.

 

While he is appearing as a solo act tonight, in addition to performing rock opera Tommy he will also play some of The Who's other best known songs.

 

Roger told isleofman.com he is looking forward to playing in the Isle of Man again and performed Tommy in full for the Teenage Cancer Trust series of concerts - which he is the driving force behind - in March at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

 

He also opened shows for Eric Clapton in America last year.

 

For ticket availability for tonight's performance ring the ticket hotline on 600555.
