Roger Daltrey To Take The Who’s ‘Tommy’ On Tour

He’ll play four dates this July.

Roger Daltrey has announced a few shows during which he’ll play The Who’s rock opera ‘Tommy’ from start to finish, as well as a variety of ‘classics’.

He recently performed the show at The Royal Albert Hall in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust, and is now taking it on the road.

The Who’s guitarist Pete Townshend comments: ”Great to see Roger performing TOMMY with his band in 2011. I will be there in spirit, and Roger has my complete and most loving support. Roger is touring his unique concert version of TOMMY using his faithful presentation of the original work as the backbone for a set of wider material… it is wonderful to hear the way Roger and his new band re-interpret the old Who songs.”

Here are the dates:

JULY
07 MANCHESTER BRIDGEWATER HALL
09 NOTTINGHAM ROYAL CENTRE
12 BRISTOL COLSTON HALL
19 HULL CITY HALL

Tickets will go on sale at 9am on Friday 6th May.
