In March Roger Daltrey performed The Who’s rock opera Tommy at a Royal Albert Hall benefit for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Now he has announced that he will bring the show to North America for a series of series of shows that begin on September 13. His band for these performances will include Pete Townshend’s younger brother Simon as well as Frank Simes (guitar), Scott Deavours (drums), Jon Button (Bass) and Loren Gold (keyboards). While Daltrey, Pete Townshend and John Entwistle performed a version of Tommy on tour in 1989, technically this will be the first time that Daltrey delivers Tommy live in its entirety, as The Who omitted “Underture” and “Welcome” during those shows.
