The Who played the final show of their North American farewell tour in October last year in Thousand Palms, California, closing with ‘Tea & Theatre’ from 2006.
Recommended“I suppose, you know, it’s goodbye,” Pete Townshend told the audience afterwards. “That’s what it is. To what we know as The Who, it’s goodbye. What Roger and I will get up to next, who knows? If we last any longer, I’m sure we’ll get up to all kinds of mischief.
“We’ll do stuff together, I’m sharing some stuff, all kinds [of] bits and pieces. But for this kind of thing, it’s goodbye. And you were last!”
Roger Daltrey added: “Thank you so much for your support, over all the years. It means so much to us. It was every band’s dream in the ’60s to make it in America. And thanks to you guys, you made it happen for us. Thank you so much!”
Townshend recently reflected on The Who coming to an end, saying that he and Daltrey “don’t communicate very well” and “have different needs as performers”. The musician also said the group were now “a Who tribute band”.
AdvertisementIt currently seems unlikely that there will be a final album from The Who. Townshend expressed his desire for the band to make another record last year, but said there was “a bit of a river to cross” in convincing Daltrey.
Before then, the guitarist spoke to NME about the possibility of more new music from The Who. “I don’t think there is. If there was a need or a place for a Who album, could I write the songs for it within six weeks? Of course I fucking could, it’s a piece of cake. The problem is, I don’t think Roger wants to do it again.”
