AC/DC with Axl Rose is nothing more than "karaoke", according to the Who's Roger Daltrey.
The legendary Australian rockers recently announced the Guns N' Roses frontman will take up the mic on their next tour, replacing long-time singer Brian Johnson, who's retired for health reasons.
"Go and see karaoke with Axl Rose? Give me a break," Daltrey told the London Free Press. "I really feel badly for Brian. It must be heartbreaking for him after all the service he's given that band over the years."
Daltrey, 72, is about to head out on the Who's 50th anniversary tour. He's blamed his own hearing loss on the band's decades of rocking stadiums. Johnson has been told if he doesn't stop now, he'll go deaf.
"I've spoken to Brian. He's got loads of other things he wants to do in his life," says Daltrey.
"I think AC/DC will miss Brian much more than Brian will miss AC/DC. There you go."
Johnson joined AC/DC in 1980, replacing Bon Scott, who died after drinking too much.
