=== 2010s tours === The Who performed Quadrophenia at the [[Royal Albert Hall]] on 30 March 2010 as part of the [[Teenage Cancer Trust]] series of ten gigs. This one-off performance of the rock opera featured guest appearances from [[Pearl Jam]]'s [[Eddie Vedder]] and [[Kasabian]]'s [[Tom Meighan]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/live-music-reviews/7541787/The-Who-Quadrophenia-at-the-Royal-Albert-Hall-review.html|title=The Who: Quadrophenia at the Royal Albert Hall, review|first=Neil|last=McCormick|newspaper=The Daily Telegraph|location=London|date=31 March 2010|access-date=27 January 2015|archive-date=9 November 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141109145052/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/live-music-reviews/7541787/The-Who-Quadrophenia-at-the-Royal-Albert-Hall-review.html|url-status=live}}</ref> In November 2012, the Who started a U.S. tour of ''Quadrophenia'', dubbed "[[Quadrophenia and More]]". The group played the entire album without any guest singers or announcements with the then regular Who line-up (including Starkey and bassist [[Pino Palladino]], who replaced Entwistle following his death in 2002) along with five additional musicians. The tour included additional video performances, including Moon singing "Bell Boy" from 1974 and Entwistle's bass solo in "5:15" from 2000.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-who-stage-quadrophenia-at-triumphant-brooklyn-concert-20121115|title=The Who Stage 'Quadrophenia' at Triumphant Brooklyn Concert|first=Andy|last=Greene|magazine=Rolling Stone|date=15 November 2012|access-date=27 January 2015|archive-date=13 July 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140713050718/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-who-stage-quadrophenia-at-triumphant-brooklyn-concert-20121115|url-status=live}}</ref> After Starkey injured his wrist, session drummer Scott Devours replaced him for part of the tour with minimal rehearsal.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who/|title=Scott Devours: From Here to the Who|first=Sander|last=Wolff|work=Long Beach Post|date=9 July 2013|access-date=27 June 2019|archive-date=27 June 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190627171430/https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who-part-2/|title=Scott Devours: From Here to the Who β Part 2|first=Sander|last=Wolff|work=Long Beach Post|date=10 July 2013|access-date=27 June 2019|archive-date=25 February 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210225003902/https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who-part-2/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who-part-3/|title=Scott Devours: From Here to the Who β Part 3|first=Sander|last=Wolff|work=Long Beach Post|date=12 July 2013|access-date=27 June 2019|archive-date=27 June 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190627171427/https://lbpost.com/hi-lo/scott-devours-from-here-to-the-who-part-3/|url-status=live}}</ref> The tour progressed, with Devours drumming, to the UK in 2013, ending in a performance at [[Wembley Arena]] in July.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturevideo/musicvideo/10919836/The-Who-Quadrophenia-Live-in-London-The-Sea-and-the-Sand-exclusive-footage.html|title=The Who: Quadrophenia Live in London β The Sea and the Sand β exclusive footage|first=Neil|last=McCormick|work=The Daily Telegraph|location=London|date=24 June 2014|access-date=25 November 2014|archive-date=29 June 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140629080707/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturevideo/musicvideo/10919836/The-Who-Quadrophenia-Live-in-London-The-Sea-and-the-Sand-exclusive-footage.html|url-status=live}}</ref> In September 2017, Townshend embarked on a short tour with [[Billy Idol]], [[Alfie Boe]], and an orchestra entitled "Classic Quadrophenia".<ref name="ultimateclassicrock.com Pete Townshend Classic Quadrophenia">{{cite web |url=http://ultimateclassicrock.com/pete-townshends-classic-quadrophenia-tour/ |title=Pete Townshend's Classic Quadrophenia With Billy Idol Announces U.S. Tour Dates (by Michael Gallucci) |date=6 June 2017 |website=ultimateclassicrock.com |access-date=8 October 2017 |archive-date=8 October 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171008232059/http://ultimateclassicrock.com/pete-townshends-classic-quadrophenia-tour/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name="rollingstone.com Pete Townshend Classic Quadrophenia">{{cite web |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/pete-townshend-plots-short-classic-quadrophenia-tour-w486025 |title=Pete Townshend Plots Short 'Classic Quadrophenia' Tour β Townshend will revisit the Who's famous double album with an orchestra to reach "classical and pop music lovers alike" (by Elias Leight) |date=6 June 2017 |website=rollingstone.com |access-date=8 October 2017 |archive-date=8 October 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171008231440/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/pete-townshend-plots-short-classic-quadrophenia-tour-w486025 |url-status=live }}</ref>
