Normally a live Who album would be an automatic for me. I'll have to think about this one though. I'm not a big fan of The Whoody Blues.

Still waiting for the pre-order link in the first post to become active, but we now have a packshot, and confirmation from Universal that this will be a three-disc set (two CDs and one Blu-ray).

It's gone up for pre-order in the UK:

Saw the tour and I liked it (the NYC version on May 26th) so I will end up getting this after all The Who are my all-time favorite group.

It would appear that this is from the most recent Wembley show, which was back on 7/6/19. If so, this has a couple of tracks ("Hero Ground Zero" and "Ball And Chain") from the recent WHO album, and a guest appearance by Eddie Vedder on "The Punk and the Godfather". https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-who/ ... ebfef.html

Sounds very promising--looks as though the show closed with "Baba O'Riley," and a Katie Jacoby violin solo.

Suddenly this is more appealing.

This was scheduled for next week, but is currently in limbo. There's been no announcement of the release being cancelled altogether, but the UK listing has vanished and the USA listing never appeared.

Maybe Pete is fussing with the contents and packaging to make sure they meet Renny's standards.

In any case, let's watch and wait.

Amazon now states that this is set for release on December 31, 2039. Can't wait!

That'll be a nice way to ring in 2040.

Nonsense. You'll be attending several Canadian dates on the 2040 leg of The Who's farewell tour.

I've seen them in the past ten years. They were good, but for me, this is when they should've had the Farewell Tour:

Maybe by 2040 it'll be the Who touring as holograms.

The 2CD/1BD has now been rescheduled for March 31st, and the Amazon pre-order link in the first post should become active soon.

The description is now in the first post, and the USA pre-order link is live.

I guess I should have read the fine print: After sitting, unplayed, in front of my TV for a couple of months, I popped the blu-ray disc into my player this morning, and was surprised to learn that it was not a video of the show itself, but a 5.1 mix of the album. I don't think I own another live album where the bonus blu-ray contains no video from the show.
