London’s Royal Albert Hall hosts the Teenage Cancer Trust (Alberto Pezzali / Live4ever)
The Who have been added to the line-up for this year’s Teenage Cancer Trust concert series.
Curator Roger Daltrey will bring his live show with Pete Townshend which has been supporting their recent WHO album to the Royal Albert Hall in London on March 28th, adding to the other TCT mainstays Noel Gallagher and Stereophonics who have already been confirmed for next month’s charity gigs.
“This album is almost all new songs written last year, with just two exceptions,” Pete Townshend has said of The Who’s first album since 2006’s Endless Wire.
“There is no theme, no concept, no story, just a set of songs that I (and my brother Simon) wrote to give Roger Daltrey some inspiration, challenges and scope for his newly revived singing voice. Roger and I are both old men now, by any measure, so I’ve tried to stay away from romance, but also from nostalgia if I can.”
