Roger Daltrey (vocalist, The Who) : When we got our first hit, I Can't Explain, we started earning what was then pretty good money, say £300 a night. But after the first year, we were £60,000 in debt. The next year, after working our balls off, we were still £40,000 down. And the biggest choke of all came the year after that when we found we were back up to £60,000 again. Every accountant's meeting was ridiculous. We always owed so much money that we ended up rolling around the office laughing ourselves silly.
