“These amazing gigs and their fantastic line-ups help us change lives,” Katie Collins, chief executive of Teenage Cancer Trust, said. “Because of Roger [Daltrey], the artists, the teams who make these gigs possible and everyone who buys a ticket, we can make sure young people don’t face cancer alone and continue to provide the vital, expert care and support that is crucial for young people with cancer.”
Kasabian frontman, Serge Pizzorno, added to NME: “Getting to play in that room is an incredible thing, but to be patrons of this charity and to have been involved for this long is special because they’re phenomenal.
“Having a night out is great, but to spread the word and help this charity who have raised millions and done so much incredible work is great. Whenever we’re asked to play we always say yes.”
