The Who Delivered Despite Challenges

At Woodstock, Roger Daltrey, lead singer of The Who captivated in a fringe-laden ensemble while performing the iconic ’60s anthem “My Generation.” Alongside guitarist Peter Townshend, they played before a massive crowd.

Interestingly, Roger revealed later that logistical issues like traffic and widespread illicit substance use marred the experience. However, The Who’s performance was iconic despite their challenges. Roger’s powerful voice and Peter Townshend’s windmill guitar strums had the crowd rocking out in their thousands. Their Woodstock gig, though turbulent, underscores the era’s rock culture and the band’s resilience, a pivotal moment in music history.
