The Who played all of Tommy for the first time in 28 years last night at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of a benefit concert for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Most of the songs the Who performed off of the seminal album hadn't been played live since 1989, and according to Setlist.fm, the band hasn't pulled out "Welcome" at a show since 1969. Check out footage of "Pinball Wizard," "Amazing Journey," and "Sparks" below.
