NEW YORK — The Who have announced the rescheduled dates for their axed fall tour, now kicking off in February 2016.

Tickets for the originally scheduled shows will be honored at the new dates.
The tour, celebrating The Who’s 50th anniversary, also will visit New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Toronto. It wraps May 29 in Las Vegas
Rescheduled Northwest concerts are May 13 at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, B.C.; May 15 at KeyArena in Seattle; and May 17 at Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.
