One of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time, The Who will perform at the Borgata Event Center on October 31, 2008. After a brief hiatus following a hugely successful world tour, rock innovators Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey will bring their electric, mind blowing performances to Borgata with a vengeance. They will be joined on stage by John ‘Rabbit’ Bundrick on keyboard, Pino Palladino on bass, Zak Starkey on drums and Simon Townshend on guitar and vocals. This is the same phenomenal line up that supported The Who on their 2006/2007 tour, which enjoyed incredible critical and box office success.
