About 13,000 capacity at Mohegan Sun Arena and not an empty seat---not even for the opener. We met Tom Tom Club at dinner before the show!

The Who Announce Short Tour of UK and Europe
Reply #687 - Jan 28^th, 2013 at 6:24am

June 8th Dublin: The O2

June 10th Belfast: Odyssey

June 12th Glasgow: SECC

June 15th London: The O2

June 18th Sheffield: Motorpoint Arena

June 20th Newcastle: Metro Arena

June 23rd Manchester: Arena

June 25th Cardiff: Motorpoint Arena

June 28th Birmingham: LG Arena

June 30th Liverpool: Echo Arena

July 3rd Paris: Bercy

July 5th Amsterdam: Ziggo Dome

THE WHO have announced a 12 date arena tour of the UK and Europe. They will perform their iconic 1973 double album QUADROPHENIA in its entirety, along with a selection of WHO classics. The UK tour follows hot off the heels of their hugely successful North American, tour, praised by press and fans alike as probably the definitive interpretation of Quadrophenia and “a rock ‘n’ roll lover’s dream come true” (Telegram.com, Boston). “QUADROPHENIA is their (The Who’s) boldest and most fully realized albums,” writes Rolling Stone, “but it’s never quite gotten the live show it deserves – until now”.

Got 7th row centre for Belfast this morning - (thanks to Meggy for helping me out when my PC fucked up at work)

First time the Who have played here since June 1967 - 10 days before their historic performance at Monterey - and the first time I'll have seen them in nine years.

Cant wait. Quadrophenia is one of my top 10 albums ever.

My last Who show was also Quadrophenia, 16 long years and one member ago sadly. Please send Pete my regards, but behave yourself. It's a fucking rock and roll concert, not a fucking tea party.

the Hyde Park 'Quadrophenia' gig in 1996 was my only other Who show before 2004. A low figure for someone who's been a big fan, but they just havent played near me often enough down the years.

Good show at Staples Center, apparently word of mouth from Anaheim spurred a last minute run on tickets and the venue was at least 98% full with discounts not as plentiful as they were in the past few weeks. Me and some friends with scattered upper deck seats sat in the very last row in the very back and watched the production dead on. Still a horrible venue for a concert, couldn't see myself paying $125-ish for the same seats for the Stones in a few months. Pete sounded great. Roger sounded better than he did at the solo show in 2009.
