The sold-out event included an in-depth question and answer session with Daltrey and Townshend, as well as an emotional address from cancer survivor Sarah Sterner.

QUOTES:
"Having worked with Roger for Teenage Cancer Trust in the UK, I have seen firsthand the dramatic difference our organization makes to both the quality of life and survival rates of the teens in our units," said Webb. "I am delighted to be invited to join the board in the USA to help start the same movement here."
