Daltrey Joins All-Star Line-Up At Farner Benefit


The Who band star Roger Daltrey and AC DC bass player CLIFF WILLIAMS, in order to collect funds for GRAND FUNK RAILROAD star MARK FARNER's sick son have joined the list of rockers teaming up for a benefit concert in New York.

They both will be joined by Farner, Kip Winger and Bad Company drummer Simon Kirke, among others, for an all-star jam at New York’s B.B. King’s Blues Club on Monday (17Jan11).

All money which will be earned through the sale of ticket will go toward the medical expenses of Farner’s 21-year-old son, Jesse.

Daltrey tells WENN, "I’m humbled to be able to help Jesse and the Farners in any way I can. We are all very fortunate, in our business, to be able to give back. And sometimes circumstances demand that we give back to our brothers and sisters in the rock and roll business."
