From Roger Daltrey's bio on TheWho.net....

As The Who were working on the single "My Generation," The Who toured Sweden. Daltrey became incensed as he felt the band were a bunch of "junkies." Daltrey cooled down long enough for the band to tour Denmark. Daltrey became upset again and flushed Keith Moon's pills down a toilet. Moon protested but Daltrey flattened Moon with a single punch.

Late September 1965, The Who tossed Daltrey out of the band. A couple of days later, Daltrey swallowed his pride and promised no more violent outbursts and assaults. Daltrey recalled, "I thought if I lost the band I was dead. If I didn't stick with The Who, I would be a sheet metal worker for the rest of my life."
