The Who have announced a major North American arena tour for this fall.

The trip, which marks the band’s first dates on the continent in four years, will see the band perform their iconic 1973 double album “Quadrophenia” in its entirety, along with a selection of Who classics.

The critically-acclaimed “Quadrophenia” marked the British band’s second rock opera (after “Tommy”), raised the bar for rock albums as an art form and hit #2 on the U.S. Billboard album chart.

Founding members Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend will be joined by Zak Starkey (drums), Pino Palladino (bass), Simon Townshend (guitar/backing vocals), Chris Stainton (keyboards), Loren Gold (keyboards/backing vocals) and Frank Simes (musical director, keyboards/backing vocals).

In addition, subscribed members of The Who’s official fan club will be given priority access to purchase tickets for the upcoming “Quadrophenia” tour. The offer begins at 10:00 AM on July 20 and expires July 22 at 10:00 PM. All current members of the official The Who Fan Club, as well as any new members who join, will be given an exclusive member’s only code that will activate the offer. Membership is available at fanclub.TheWho.com.

The upcoming Who tour will offer a number of exclusive VIP experiences and packages. These offers may include a number of exciting perks: great seats, a special invitation to The Who’s VIP preshow sound check, limited edition autographed memorabilia, preshow parties (including complimentary food & beverage), VIP preferred parking, exclusive VIP merchandise and more.

The American Express presale for the U.S. dates runs July 23-26 and July 23-25 in Canada before the general public on sales beginning on Friday, July 27 at 10:00 A.M.

The 36-date tour kicks off November 1 in Sunrise, FL with an initial six-week run. The Who will return in late January with more dates commencing January 28 in Anaheim, CA. Tickets for the tour will be available at www.aeglive.com
