The Who last played in the US in 2022 as part of the Hits Back tour, which partially supported the band’s twelfth studio Who but also featured some of their biggest hits. When asked by USA Today if the band plans on touring America again in the future, Daltrey said that the chances of that happening are slim.

“Nothing at the moment. I don’t know if we’ll ever come back to tour America,” Daltrey shared.

Daltrey explained that the only tour The Who might do in America is the orchestrated performance of their rock opera Quadrophenia “to round out the catalog.” However, he noted that singing it live in a tour setting would be “one tall order,” considering he will turn 80 in 2024.

 “I never say never, but at the moment it’s very doubtful,” he added.

The Who is currently scheduled to continue the Hits Back tour in the summer. They will play a series of concerts across Europe, including Spain, Italy, France, Germany, and the UK.

Announcing the tour dates on its official site, The Who will feature a local orchestra at every spot it plays throughout the US. Band member Roger Daltrey also told his fans that the Who will produce the high quality music they are used to despite the orchestra.

“Be aware, Who fans!” he said. “Just because it’s The Who with an orchestra, in no way will it compromise the way Pete and I deliver our music. This will be full throttle Who with horns and bells on.”

With Daltrey hitting 75 years and bandmate Pete Townshend being 73, the Symphonic Tour will likely be the band’s last. Daltrey had already confirmed to the Rolling Stone he might think of reiting after the tour.

“I’m just being realistic about going throughout the 75^th year of my life,” he said. “I have to be realistic that this is the age I am and voices start to go after a while. I don’t want to be not as good as I was two years ago.”

The band also plans to release their first album since 2006 sometimes before the tour begins.

“I’ve always resisted the urge to ‘do the memoir,'” said Daltrey in a statement, “but now, finally, I feel I’ve enough perspective. When you’ve spent more than half a century at the epicenter of a band like The Who, perspective can be a problem. Everything happened in the moment. One minute, I’m on the factory floor in Shepherd’s Bush, the next, I’m headlining Woodstock.”

Daltrey first mentioned that he is preparing his memoir in 2016, but stated that he will only release it if it turns out to be a good book, wishing to give his fans a good read. It looks like he managed to do so and that we are in for a treat.

“It’s taken three years to unpack the events of my life, to remember who did what when and why, to separate the myths from the reality, to unravel what really happened at the Holiday Inn on Keith Moon’s 21st birthday,” he said. “I hope the result is more than just another autobiography. I’ve been lucky enough to live in interesting times. I’ve witnessed society, music and culture change beyond recognition. That I’m still here to tell my tale when so many others around me didn’t make it is nothing short of a miracle.”

After the 2017 edition of The Who tour ended recently, Roger Daltrey will now embark on a solo tour where he will deliver a mix of songs from his eight solo albums and The Who hits. He also reportedly works on his first solo album since 1992’s Rocks in the Head.
