Take Two for The Who

Take Two for The Who

THINGS are looking up for a reunion of sorts for The Who.

The Who will not tour, but singer Roger Daltrey will pay tribute to Who braintrust Pete Townshend at Carnegie Hall Feb. 22 and 23.

Townshend and Who bassist John Entwistle will reportedly participate, as will, sources say, John Mellencamp, Eddie Van Halen, 4 Non-Blondes, the Chieftains and possibly Eddie Vedder and Bob Dylan.

The first night will be for charity. A compilation of both nights will be on pay-per-view Feb. 26.

The Who’s “Tommy,” which earned international acclaim as a rock opera in the ’70s, made a successful theater run in ’93. - BPI
