Audio By Carbonatix

The Who is touring North America this year. The band just announced dates for their “The Who Hits Back!” tour.

The tour features many of the dates the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers were supposed to play in 2020 before COVID caused the cancelation of the trek. That includes a stop at New Orleans Jazz Fest on April 30^th and their first show in Cincinnati since the trampling tragedy that killed 11 fans 43 years ago. 

“Pete and I said we’d be back, but we didn’t think we’d have to wait for two years for the privilege,” Roger Daltrey shares. “This is making the chance to perform feel even more special this time around…We’re gearing up for a great show that hits back in the only way The Who know how. By giving it everything we’ve got.”

The new tour kicks off April 30^th in Hollywood, Florida, with the first leg wrapping May 28^th in Bethel, New York. They then return for a fall leg on October 2^nd in Toronto, wrapping with a two-night stand, November 4^th and 5^th in Las Vegas.
