" We've got the Who machine back up and running, and the band sounds good. We are developing a special six screen video system to provide an alternative and a complement to our lighting rig - hey! we could get sexy dancers and we'd have as cool a show as Kylie (get well soon sweetheart and keep fighting).
For the European leg of the tour Roger introduced CRY IF YOU WANT into the set, and we have swotted up on DON'T EVEN KNOW MYSELF, RELAY, GETTING IN TUNE, THE SEEKER, ANOTHER TRICKY DAY, NAKED EYE, BARGAIN, PURE & EASY, I'M A BOY, TATOO and LET'S SEE ACTION to fly in - all special requests from fans.
We will also squeeze in the big classics for those who don't always follow our shows.
For the real fanatics (and bootleggers) out there, Roger and I both put together lists of songs we really want to play at some point during the tour this coming year. We have been inspired by the Stones to do this - though we are trying to shorten out marathon show at the same time, so it's hard to find a spot in the show to fit them in. So many of our songs are long. Put BABA O'RILEY, WHO ARE YOU, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN, and some stuff from QUADROPHENIA and TOMMY in a show and you already fill almost an hour of playing time. It looks like our show will run about 100 minutes.
I will publish a list of so-called "Who Rarities" that we hope to introduce one by one on the American tour later this year. This has some really fun stuff on it including our first Mini-Opera, and stuff like Roger's song HERE FOR MORE and BLUE, RED and GREY performed by me on a ukelele.
Working with Rachel on IN THE ATTIC has made me quite a bit braver about tackling unusual songs, and I'm hoping that on occasion - where a "Rarity" may not work on the big Who stage, I might be able to play it Live on IN THE ATTIC. I may be able to persuade Roger to join us sometimes. So there should be some interesting times ahead. "

Liquor. Bongs and liquor.

The Who are rock and roll's third arm. A useless, atrophied and unnecessary appendage tricking the world’s freaks into thinking it's the last tour, for the last six tours.
