The Who's keyboard tech,Brian Kehew, has posted his Backstage Blogs from the last week of the band's Moving On!U.S. tour, and he shares some further behind-the-scenes insight.
At the tour's final night, at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, actorTaron Egerton, who portrayed Elton John in Rocketman, was in the audience, and also paid Pete Townshend a backstage visit.
During the show, Townshend pointed Taron out, saying, "He's here, you can kiss him, and touch his bum if you want.”
Also in the audience was Ringo Starr, whose son ZakStarkey drums for The Who. Pete made sure to point him out too, joking that it was OK to kiss him and grab his bum, as well!
