The Who To Rock The New Orleans Jazz Festival

. (hennemusic) The Who are among the headliners announced for the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival this spring. The April 24-May 3 event will also feature headliners Elton John, Keith Urban, Jimmy Buffett, No Doubt and Widespread Panic.

The Who will perform on April 25 - marking their first U.S. festival appearance in more than 40 years - topping a bill that includes John Legend, Ryan Adams, Robert Cray and dozens more.

The Who's previous iconic U.S. festival appearances include 1967's Monterey Pop Festival - where a coin toss decided whether they or Jimi Hendrix would close the show - and at Woodstock in 1969, where Pete Townshend kicked Abbie Hoffman off the stage when Hoffman interrupted their set to make a political speech.
