Who’s Farewell Tour: Possible UK and Europe Exclusions

The legendary rock band The Who has recently indicated that their much-anticipated farewell tour may not include any performances in their home country of England or in other parts of Europe. This news came during a live-streamed press conference where band members Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend revealed details about their upcoming 16-date North American tour titled This Song Is Over.

While engaging with online fans, Daltrey and Townshend expressed uncertainty regarding the possibility of UK or European dates for the tour. “Let’s see if we can survive this one,” Daltrey humorously remarked, before diving into the more serious aspects of touring logistics. He elaborated, “I’ve got to say, touring America is a damn sight easier than touring the UK. For some reason or another, the UK has decided to make it as difficult as possible to go from A to B. In America, you seem to want to make it as easy as possible. But we are in the land of ‘no.’ I don’t want to say that there will be, but equally, I’m not confident in saying there will be. That’s the honest answer to that.”

Townshend echoed Daltrey’s sentiments, adding, “I really enjoyed the last tour that we did; we played a lot of open-air gigs. We had an insurance problem, which meant that we couldn’t perform at some of the more iconic venues that are usually featured in a UK tour. However, the door remains open for us; we could potentially do a week at the O2 Arena, or even a couple of weeks at the Royal Albert Hall. There are numerous opportunities available to us.”

The 81-year-old Daltrey also shared that the necessary breaks he requires between performances complicate the touring process and increase costs. “I can’t perform back-to-back shows. My throat specialist has advised me that I must take a day off after every performance, and after every three shows, I need to rest for two days. Failing to do so could result in damaging my voice and jeopardizing my ability to sing,” he explained.
