Just read this from www.billboard.com -
The Who will play a charity concert for Maryville Academy Sept. 23 at Chicago's 1,300-capacity House of Blues, reprising a similar performance held at the same venue in November 1999. As with that show, Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder will open, backed by the Washington-based duo C-Average. Tickets for the event are $400 and go on sale Friday (July 26) via all Ticketmaster locations and the House of Blues box office.
Who guitarist Pete Townshend has been a longtime supporter of Maryville Academy, which aids disadvantaged youth in and around Illinois. As previously reported, the Who is pressing on with its summer North American tour despite the death last month of bassist John Entwistle. The trek will wrap Sept. 28 in Toronto. As for Pearl Jam, the group's new, as-yet-untitled Epic album is tentatively due Nov. 19.
