The Who is back

WHO NEWS


The band has agreed upon a work plan for the coming year and beyond. At present Pete is involved in setting up a team to do a 5.1 remix of Quadrophenia, which will be released along similar lines to the upcoming Tommy release. An extended version is also planned for the same release, opening the story up for future theatrical and DVD versions.

His main creative work will be songs for a new Who album. These will be based on his story, now complete, The Boy Who Heard Music. He and Roger plan to demo the new material before the end of the year prior to going into record the album in March 04. This of course will be the band's first studio album since 1982 'It's Hard.' The proposed release date for the album is the early Summer and the idea is to follow it up with a US and UK tour, taking in other regions in 2005.

Both Pete and Roger wanted to share this information with you at an early stage. It is hoped that the recording sessions will be filmed for webcasting and that some live, interactive sessions, via the website, will also take place.

To tie in with this period of activity the www.petetownshend.com chatboard will reopen on Oct 2nd.

This is freakin AWESOME!! I have been a fan for 5 years now, and they still amaze me! For these old guys...even if only two original members are left...put out an album...now...amazing! They are still the best live show...excluding all strip shows! I can't wait to see them again for this concert and can't wait to spend more money into The Who Machine! Also...The Kids Are Alright DVD is being re-released on the 30th in the US of A...I suggest everyone go out and buy it...or pre-order now on amazon and save some beanery!

"...hope I die before I get old...."

You can't bust 'em, The Who has to be one of the greatest studio/concert bands that ever blew out a 40-amp fuse!

Good news! Just goes to show you can't keep a great artist down...

Hey, comineaha, welcome to TechIMO!

LOL TBC. Yeah, my son showed me.

Cheers

I've been enjoying them since the 60s especially woodstock (on tv). Last I saw them was on public tv where they performed live at Albert Royal. I'm glad I taped it. That was an awesome concert.
