Haven't seen any discussion of this announcement from eelpie.com. I'm sure there will be lots of objections to this, but I say why not? It's about time Pete did something new, and if slapping the "Who" label on it is what gets him back to work, that's fine with me. RB ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 7:46 AM Subject: Who News > The band has agreed upon a work plan for the coming year and beyond. At present Pete is involved in setting up a team to do a 5.1 remix of Quadrophenia, which will be released along similar lines to the upcoming Tommy release. An extended version is also planned for the same release, opening the story up for future theatrical and DVD versions. > > His main creative work will be songs for a new Who album. These will be based on his story, now complete, The Boy Who Heard Music. He and Roger plan to demo the new material before the end of the year prior to going into record the album in March 04. This of course will be the band's first studio album since 1982's 'It's Hard.' The proposed release date for the album is the early Summer and the idea is to follow it up with a US and UK tour, taking in other regions in 2005. > > Both Pete and Roger wanted to share this information with you at an early stage.
