The Planet is Hot, But Nothing's Gonna Stop This Singer Going Wild

|

Roger Daltrey of the Who, annoyed by his own band's participation in Live 8 ("What did we really achieve at Live 8? We got loads of platitudes and no action. Who were we kidding there?"), won't get fooled again by Al Gore's Live Earth. He tells the UK Sun:

"Bo***cks to that! The last thing the planet needs is a rock concert.

"I can't believe it. Let's burn even more fuel.

"We have problems with global warming, but the questions and the answers are so huge I don't know what a rock concert's ever going to do to help.

"Everybody on this planet at the moment, unless they are living in the deepest rainforest in Brazil, knows about climate change."
