Are the Who Done? What About Neil?
\nDamn, two of my favorites.<\/p>\n
Was the Who’s 12-minute performance during the Super Bowl halftime show in Miami its last?<\/p>\n
If the ringing in Pete Townshend’s ears gets any worse, it just might have been.<\/p>\n
Townshend told Rolling Stone that he suffers from tinnitus – a painful ringing of the ears – from years of touring with the legendary rock group.
\n“If my hearing is going to be a problem, we’re not delaying shows, Townshend told the magazine. We’re finished.\u001d<\/p>\n
The 64-year-old guitarist added: “I can’t really see any way around the issue.”<\/p>\n
The Who was forced to cancel its spring tour and a pair of festival appearances at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Coachella due to Townshend’s ear issues. One date – a charity performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall – is still scheduled.<\/p>\n
“It’s a good test of Pete’s hearing,” Roger Daltrey said. “We won’t know until we try.”<\/p>\n
Townshend is being treated by an audiologist used by fellow aging rocker Neil Young. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
