The Who have been forced to reschedule the Irish leg of their 50th anniversary arena dates due to ‘unforeseen logistical difficulties’.
Shows which had been scheduled for later this year at Belfast’s Odyssey Arena and the 3Arena in Dublin will now take place next June – the updated UK and Irish itinerary is below.
Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend are also celebrating their band’s Golden year with a greatest hits collection entitled ‘The Who Hits 50!’, which includes the brand new track ‘Be Lucky‘. According to Daltrey, this song will be followed by a full length album in the near future. “It’s 50 years on and we have passed the audition,” he told the Mirror. “We’ve done one song and we are going to do a whole album.”
