The Who singer Roger Daltrey has accepted the ultimate British honor, as he was knighted by the Prince of Wales at Windsor Castle.
In honor of his services to charity, as Daltrey served the Teenage Cancer Trust since 2000, by putting on their annual concert series at London's Royal Albert Hall for decades.
"It is a wonderful honour for me and especially for Teenage Cancer Trust. I accept this award not only for myself but on behalf of all the unsung heroes who have given their energy towards making the Teenage Cancer Trust the success it has become.” Daltrey said. “The likes of THE WHO and their fans, Angie Jenkison, Lindsay Hughes, Des Murphy, Rob Ballantine and the late Chris York are some of many who have done so much to elevate the charity, to the point where it now has 28 specialist units in NHS hospitals across the U.K."
Other rockers who have been knighted are Sir Brian May, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Ringo Starr, Sir Mick Jagger, Sir Elton John, Sir Rod Stewart and Sir Tom Jones.
