In a new interview with AARP, Pete Townshend revealed that he plans to continue performing “one-man shows” and has “140 tracks ready to go” after The Who’s farewell tour ends in September. The 80-year-old rock legend believes that he has “another five years” left in show business, and he intends to complete his long-awaited solo album, The Age of Anxiety, and test new material on the road. While Townshend considers The Who’s final scheduled show in Las Vegas on September 28 as the official end of the road for the band, he leaves open the possibility of occasional appearances and collaborations with longtime bandmate Roger Daltrey on charity projects and special shows in the future. “We reserve the right to pop up again,” Townshend  said. “But I think one thing is very clear: that at our age, we will not.” The Who’s farewell tour continues with an upcoming show on Saturday night (August 23) in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
