Who's coming? Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey

Bookmark and Share

Looks like this is the year for British classic-rock icons to come around doing single-album shows in America. Roger Waters brought Pink Floyd's "The Wall" to Raleigh earlier this month, While Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson will play "Thick as a Brick" at DPAC in September. Meanwhile, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey are taking The Who's "Quadrophenia" on the road. The tour will not, alas, be coming to the Triangle, but it will be at Greensboro Coliseum on Nov. 9. The show will feature 1973's "Quadrophenia" album in its entirety, plus some of the other greatest hits.

Tickets are $39.50-$129.50, and of course there are various pre-sales. Check details for that here.
