In honor of their 50th anniversary, British rockers The Who have announced the dates for a UK tour. Following up on comments made earlier, which suggested the 50th anniversary tour would see the veteran rock band traveling around the world, one can only question if Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey have the energy for the international tour that they initially conceived.
Daltrey and Townshend appeared at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London today, to both announce the tour and perform an acoustic set. The tour will kick off at the end of November, and carry the band throughout Ireland and England. The tour dates are listed below – all tickets go on sale on Friday (July 4th) at 9 AM local time.
Fingers crossed for some U.S. dates soon!
