Last night The Who performed at the  Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs, California for the last stop on their American “The Song is Over” tour.  While the band has hinted at the possibility of European dates, it seems like last night’s concert could have been the last of their entire 60-year career.

At the end of the Acrisure Arena show, guitarist Pete Townshend told the crowd:

“I suppose, you know, it’s goodbye. That’s what it is. To what we know as the Who, it’s goodbye. What Roger and I will get up to next, who knows? If we last any longer, I’m sure we’ll get up to all kinds of mischief, We’ll do stuff together, I’m sure sharing some stuff, all kinds bits and pieces. But for this kind of thing, it’s goodbye. And you were last!”

Singer Roger Daltrey added to the speech:

“Thank you so much for coming out, thank you so much for your support over all the years, it means so much to us.  It was every band’s dream in the ’60s to make it in America, and thanks to you guys, you made it happen for us. Thank you so much!”

Thank you to The Who for six decades of the some of the greatest rock and roll in history!
