The Who perform in Perth for the first time ever, on Saturday 4 April 2009 at Members Equity Stadium!

Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, Simon Townshend (guitars), Zak Starkey (drums), Pino Palladino (bass) and John ‘Rabbit’ Bundrick (keys) have just finished a US and Japanese tour, performing to rave reviews and are keen to continue on the road next year.
In spite of the loss of original members Keith Moon (in 1978) and John Entwistle (in 2002), the Who remains the standard-bearer for great live rock and roll and are still one of the most in demand live acts in the business. Recent U.S set lists include ‘Can’t Explain’, ‘Who Are You’, ‘Behind Blue Eyes’, ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’, ‘My Generation’, ‘Pinball Wizard’, ‘Tea And Theatre’ and ‘Baba O’Reilly’ to name a few!
They have sold over 100 million albums and been an inspiration to everyone from The Clash to the Ramones to Pearl Jam. It is impossible to underestimate their importance in the annals of rock history. They have been honoured with every prestigious award going. And in an honour many bands would crave, The Who also is recognized in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s loudest band!

Support acts are Counting Crows and Dallas Crane.

Counting Crows have been a huge presence in the music world; from initial hit single ‘Mr. Jones’ to the 2005 Academy Award and Golden Globe nominated ‘Accidentally In Love’. Their latest album ‘Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings’ sees the band split their musical personality with the rock ‘Saturday Nights’ produced by Gil Norton (of Pixies and Foo Fighters fame) whilst the more acoustic ‘Sunday Mornings’ portion had Brian Deck (Modest Mouse, Iron and Wine) at the desk.

Tickets on sale Wednesday 3 December from Ticketmaster.
