The Who @ Alltel Arena, North Little Rock, Thursday, March 22

Hello from Little Rock everyone. I’m over here taking care of my mother, who is sick… I’ll probably return to Memphis tomorrow night, as I have some business I need to tend to Saturday.

On the way over here, I heard something interesting on the radio. The Who will play a show at North Little Rock’s Alltel Arena two weeks from today. Wow… never thought they’d tour again. Of course, it’s only Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey – the other two founding members have passed away. They have a supporting band including John “Rabbit” Bundrick, who played keyboards with the band for the last several years before they split up in the early ’80s; and drummer Zak Starkey, who is Ringo Starr’s son.

Hard to believe it’s been 42 years since they released “My Generation,” one of the all-time rock classics. And, it’s been 38 years since they released Tommy, probably the most successful rock opera ever.
