Did the gig with The Who come about because you’d already played with Roger Daltrey, Jon?
Yes. I’d been playing with Roger for eight years, and obviously that included playing songs by The Who.
What does it feel like to step into the shoes of John Entwistle and Pino Palladino?
No pressure, right? Ha ha! I try not to think about it too much. I’m not trying to be either of those guys, because I can’t be either of them. I feel like I do me, with a large tip of the hat to John, but I’m not trying to be a replica of him. Nobody can be, and Pete [Townshend] and Roger absolutely don’t want me to be.
Do you try to replicate Entwistle’s tone, though?
