In the second big tour announcement of the day, the Who have announced that they will tour North America from November through February, playing the classic Quadrophenia in its entirety at each stop.
This is the second time the group has toured the piece after a 1996-1997 trek. As happened on that tour, they will play some of their greatest hits after the performance of the opera.
Joining the group's two surviving members, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey, will be Zak Starkey (drums), Pino Palladino (bass), Simon Townshend (guitar), Chris Stainton and Loren Gold (both keyboards).
