Roger Daltrey, Steve Miller Band Added to Tanglewood Summer Lineup

A Navy SEAL who testified that it was he — not his platoon chief — who killed a wounded prisoner in Iraq may face perjury charges. The Navy said Wednesday it is reviewing Corey Scott’s testimony following his stunning testimony last week in the court-martial of Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher. Gallagher, 40, has pleaded not guilty to murder and attempted murder.

The Who frontman Roger Daltrey, the Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton and Andy Grammer are among the artists added to Tanglewood's Popular Artists series this summer.

The summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra announced Wednesday that Daltrey and the Boston Pops will open the season June 15 with a performance of The Who's iconic rock opera "Tommy." It will be Daltrey's first performance at the venue since 1970.

Frampton, who made his mark in the early 1970s with hits including "Show me the Way," is scheduled to open for the Steve Miller Band on July 2. The band's 1970s hits including "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Take the Money and Run" still receive heavy airplay on classic rock radio stations.

Grammer's show is scheduled for June 22.
