He said of the tour: “Here we go again! After touring the US with this band of phenomenal musicians, I can’t wait to get back on the road in the UK with these shows.

“It’s a joy to be on stage performing – up close and personal for the audience, chatting with them and playing familiar songs in an unfamiliar way.”

Elsewhere, The Who will “definitely” return in 2025, Pete Townshend recently confirmed. Though he never explicitly shared what the band’s plans entail, his comments suggested that the band could be hitting the road sometime next year.

The guitarist went on to explain: “The album side of it… Roger’s not keen. But I would love to do another album and I may try to bully him on that. The last big tours that we’ve done have been with a full orchestra, which was glorious, but we’re now eager to make a noise and make a mess and make mistakes.”

Previously when speaking to NME in June he said that he was “pretty sure” there would be more Who shows, and that “the story of the end of The Who is gonna be when either Roger or I drop dead or can’t function anymore on the stage”.

On the topic of a new record, he added: “If there was a need or a place for a Who album, could I write the songs for it within six weeks? Of course I fucking could, it’s a piece of cake. The problem is I don’t think Roger wants to do it again. For me it would be a joy because I love writing songs, I love writing to a brief, I love having a commission, I love having a deadline and I love the feedback.”

Townshend also recently admitted that he found Daltrey’s stance on Brexit “very problematic”.
