I was happy to make the trip to Bristol for this one-off gig between Pete Doherty of Babyshamles and Roger Daltrey of The Who, in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust.
The concert was great - Pete was in good form and showed no sign of the usual shambolic nature of his live performances. His band, Babyshambles, adequately played numerous Who songs while Roger and Pete combined on the vocals. Hearing the best songs of The Who undoubtedly stuck out over Babyshambles' own work, but with the odd Libertines track thrown in, the night worked surprisingly well, the highlight being Daltrey's acoustic version of 'Behind Blue Eyes'.
I'm pleased to have got coverage of the two of them together, photos which, given the prominence of the two musicians, should pass the test of time well.
