THE WHO  PROGRAMME 1981 TOUR + PLUS ALSO ROGER DALTREY OF "THE WHO" UNIQUE  PHOTO IMAGE FROM NEC BIRMINGHAM 1982- A  12 INCH BLACK & WHITE EXCLUSIVE PHOTO IMAGE OF HIM ON STAGE WHICH IS UNRELEASED TO THE PUBLIC AT LARGE; A HUGE 12 INCHES  X 8 INCHES  UNIQUE CLOSE UP IMAGE PHOTO@ "BIRMINGHAM NEC 1982 "  SOME 36 YEARS BACK; TWO “GEMS OF COLLECTIBLE”  "THE WHO" ROCK CONCERT MEMORABILIA FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTOR; The WHO TOUR 1981 was The Who's third concert tour since the death of original drummer Keith Moon, with most dates performed in advance of the release of their recently recorded Face Dances  album. Aside from a performance on the German TV program Rockpalast at the end of the tour, it was strictly a United Kingdom venture, with four shows in Scotland, one in Wales, and the rest in England. It was the group's first UK tour since 1975. Although the Face Dances album was completed by the end of 1980, it was not released until the 1981 tour had almost ended, meaning the new material played on the tour was entirely unfamiliar to audiences. Set lists from 1981 varied from one point of the tour to another, with the band experimenting with different song orders – for example, long-time show closer "Won't Get Fooled Again" appeared in the middle of the set early in the tour, with "Who Are You" serving as the closer. New songs performed each night were "You Better You Bet", "Don't Let Go the Coat", "The Quiet One", and "Another Tricky Day", while "Did You Steal My Money" was played occasionally and a loose version of "How Can You Do It Alone" appeared in an encore during one show. A very obscure song-segment that has never appeared in any official release, "You Stand Naked", was also performed during the encore of the show of 31 January at St Austell. Additionally, early versions of "Communication" can be heard in improvisations during the first show in St Austell on 30 January; the final version of "Communication" was released on Pete Townshend's 1982 solo album All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes. This represented the most new material The Who had performed on a tour since they supported Quadrophenia  in 1973–1974.

The Who are an English rock band that formed in 1964. Their classic line-up consisted of lead singer Roger Daltrey, guitarist and singer Pete Townshend, bass guitarist John Entwistle, and drummer Keith Moon. They are considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century, selling over 100 million records worldwide and holding a reputation for their live shows and studio work.

The Who developed from an earlier group, the Detours, and established themselves as part of the pop art and mod movements, featuring auto-destructive art by destroying guitars and drums on stage. Their first single as the Who, "I Can't Explain", reached the UK top ten, followed by a string of singles including "My Generation", "Substitute" and "Happy Jack". In 1967, they performed at the Monterey Pop Festival and released the US top ten single "I Can See for Miles", while touring extensively. The group's fourth album, 1969's rock opera Tommy, included the single "Pinball Wizard" and was a critical and commercial success. Live appearancesat Woodstock and the Isle of Wight Festival, along with the live album Live at Leeds, cemented their reputation as a respected rock act. With their success came increased pressure on lead songwriter and visionary Townshend, and the follow-up to Tommy, Lifehouse, was abandoned. Songs from the project made up 1971's Who's Next, which included the hit "Won't Get Fooled Again". The group released the album Quadrophenia in 1973 as a celebration of their mod roots, and oversaw the film adaptation of Tommy  in 1975. They continued to tour to large audiences before semi-retiring from live performances at the end of 1976. The release of Who Are You in 1978 was overshadowed by the death of Moon shortly after.

Kenney Jones replaced Moon and the group resumed activity, releasing a film adaptation of Quadrophenia and the retrospective documentary The Kids Are Alright. After Townshend became weary of touring, the group split in 1982. The Who occasionally re-formed for live appearances such as Live Aid in 1985, a 25th anniversary tour in 1989 and a tour of Quadrophenia in 1996–1997. They resumed regular touring in 1999, with drummer Zak Starkey. After Entwistle's death in 2002, plans for a new album were delayed. Townshend and Daltrey continued as the Who, releasing Endless Wire in 2006, and continued to play live regularly.

The Who's major contributions to rock music include the development of the Marshall stack, large PA systems, use of the synthesizer, Entwistle and Moon's lead playing styles, Townshend's feedback and power chord guitar technique, and the development of the rock opera. They are cited as an influence by hard rock, punk rock and mod bands, and their songs still receive regular exposure.
