I think they've come up with a technique to work in new songs without anyone
noticing. It's called *the jam.* The answer is to not announce what
they're doing as a new song until the tour is over. Too late to run to the
bathroom then. ;)
Something else about the practicing, they--at least Roger and Pete-- have
lots more going on than The Who these days. (We don't hear much from John.)
Roger seems to be making a serious effort to keep his acting/movie making
career going, along with a lot of extra promotion and organizing for Who
shows. Pete also has a ton of projects planned that I'm sure he'd rather
not delay to practice rare songs for a Who tour.
If it comes to a choice, I'd personally take songs for a new album over rare
songs for the tour, too.
