The Who’s Roger Daltrey has accused former bandmate Zak Starkey of “character assassination” after the drummer was fired twice in less than a month.
In May, the band announced that they had parted ways with Starkey for the second and final time. He’d originally been fired a few weeks earlier following a Who gig at London’s Royal Albert Hall, in which Daltrey complained onstage about the volume of Starkey’s drums during The Song Is Over. Starkey was briefly reinstated, only to be fired again a few days later.
