    Saw them do Tommy in 69, 70, then early, late 80s and Quadrophenia tour a few years back. I'm sure loads of others will enjoy them.

    Wasn't their farewell tour in 1979?? Maybe they should subtitle this tour "Who Cares?"

    I think they should call themselves The Why.

    There Quadrophenia tour was simply excellent on all levesl. I'm glad the're still touring. Unfortunately, they aren't passing through Ottawa this time, only Toronto and Montreal.

    I'm not happy that I missed it. Even more so after hearing the live album released over the summer. That's a great live album. It's not Leeds, but it is still quite excellent. Depending on my schedule and ticket prices, I think I'll try and catch them in Raleigh this time around.

    The Who "We're Not ALL Dead Yet!!" Tour!!!

    Seriously, I think this will be a good one if the setlist is interesting.

    They'll be in Winnipeg next October. That's a 300+ mile trip for me so that's doable.
