The Who begin their first North American tour opening for Herman's Hermits and The Blues Magoos at the Calgary Stampede Corral in Calgary, Alberta. It is also The Who's first show in Canada. They play two shows, 2:30 and 8:30
Another first is that Keith Moon uses his new Premier drum kit emblazoned with the photos of nudes used to promote "Pictures Of Lily" and bearing the words "Keith Moon - Patent British Exploding Drummer." Keith is lucky to have made the show as he leaves his passport in his New York hotel room with his laundry. The passport is shipped to Seattle where the tour plane has to stop to pick it up on the way to the Vancouver show on the 17th
