After postponing a handful of their "The Who Hits 50!" North American tour dates, classic rock band The Who has finally re-launched the epic tour run. Frontman Roger Daltrey forced the group to postpone dates for about six months following a bout with viral meningitis, but the break has not lessened the appeal for longtime fans. The remaining dates of the tour began on February 27 in Detroit and will extend until May 29 in Las Vegas at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Tickets to see The Who for the originally scheduled shows will be honored on the new dates, and the resale market is still packed with tickets.
Tickets to see The Who are averaging $269 for their remaining dates on the secondary market, and a handful of cities like Los Angeles and Vegas are notably expensive. The band is scheduled to play their most expensive show on May 29 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, where tickets are averaging $431, with the cheapest ticket priced at $257. The second most expensive stop is scheduled to be their May 25 stop in Los Angeles at The Staples Center, where tickets are averaging $282, with the cheapest ticket available for $77, according to data provided by TiqIQ.

The band will take the tour to The Pepsi Center in Denver on Tuesday, March 29, and tickets to see The Who in Denver are available through Groupon. Until March 30, tickets can be purchased for as low as $39.50 for upper level seats, and tickets for lower level tickets start at $89.50.
The Who Hits 50 Tour was originally launched as "the beginning of a long goodbye," for the band that has been touring for decades. The tour features an expansive setlist of the band's 50-year history, includes big hits and fan favorites. The tour, which was originally intended to finish up on December 13 in Oakland, California, was rescheduled back in September following Daltrey's diagnosis. So far, the band's sets have been roughly two hours, packed with 20 songs including some of the biggest tracks like, "Who Are You?", "Baba O' Riley" and "Won't Get Fooled Again."
