Nov. 19th Who show in Rolling Stone



This is from today's Random Notes in Rolling Stone:

Until Congress passes a law forbidding more than two reunions, the Who -- or at
least
three-quarters of the Who -- will continue to indulge. The next episode in the
continuing saga of
Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey and John Entwistle may be Nov. 19 at Chicago's
House of Blues.
According to a source close to a Who member, Townshend and Daltrey will meet
tomorrow to
discuss the one-off show, proceeds of which will benefit the Windy City's
Maryville Academy for
abused and neglected children. Originally, the latest reunion was to take place
on Sept. 9, but
the logistics couldn't be worked out in time.  For the previous two years,
Townshend staged the
benefit show sans fellow Who members. A Pete Townshend live benefit album,
culled from those
performances, is due out Sept. 21. The Who last reunited in 1996 in support of
the Quadrophenia
rock opera. Prior to that, the band regrouped in 1989 to record one song [sic]
for Townshend's The
Iron Man concept album and subsequent The Kids Are Alright reunion tour...
