The Who 1982 Shea Stadium Concert Heads To DVD

The Who ‘Live At Shea Stadium 1982’ will be released in June on DVD and Blu-ray.

The set list on this show features both classic tracks and rarely performed songs and includes: Pinball Wizard, Won’t Get Fooled Again, My Generation, Substitute, Who Are You, I Can’t Explain, See Me Feel Me, Baba O’Riley and many more. Although a couple of tracks have appeared on compilations, this is the first official release of the full show and features restored footage and newly mixed sound.

The Who’s 1982 tour, which was all in North America apart from two warm-up dates at the Birmingham NEC in England, was their last to feature Kenney Jones on drums and the band did not tour again until 1989. The tour promoted the recent It’s Hard album, which had been released in June 1982, and the set list included a number of tracks from that album, some of which the band would only play live on this tour. This concert film features the show from the second of their two nights at New York’s Shea Stadium and was filmed on October 13th 1982.

The set list:

Substitute
I Can’t Explain
Dangerous
Sister Disco
The Quiet One
It’s Hard
Eminence Front
Behind Blue Eyes
Baba O’Riley
I’m One
The Punk and the Godfather
Drowned
Tattoo
Cry If You Want
Who Are You
Pinball Wizard
See Me Feel Me
Love Reign O’er Me
Long Live Rock
Won’t Get Fooled Again
Young Man Blues
Naked Eye
I Saw Her Standing There
Summertime Blues
Twist and Shout

2015 is a year of even higher profile than usual for this legendary band – with their 50th Anniversary show taking place in London’s Hyde Park and Live At Shea Stadium 1982 shows exactly what their reputation has been built on.
