Watch The Who Rip Through ‘The Real Me,’ ‘I Can’t Explain,’ ‘5:15’ at First Show of 2025

The Who mixed big hits and deep cuts at their first live show of 2025, which took place at London's Royal Albert Hall.

Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey of the rock band The Who perform on stage during the Teenage Cancer Trust show at the Royal Albert Hall, London. The setlist focused on Who classics like “I Can’t Explain,” “Who Are You,” and “Baba O’Riley,” but also touched on some lesser-known tunes, including “Tea and Theatre,” “Bargain,” and “Love Ain’t for Keeping.” The latter was just played in 2004. In a blog post on the Who’s official website, longtime band associate Brian Kehew noted that the group’s leaner live lineup will give them greater flexibility going forward.
