HistoryRoger Daltrey and Pete Townshend began performing again on 13 April 2008 at the Royal Albert Hall in London, closing the week of Teenage Cancer Trust benefit concerts with a six-song acoustic set in a rare Who performance that did not include a full band. On 27 June, The Who took part in a concert at Hyde Park to honour former South African President Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday. On 12 July, The Who were honoured by the VH1 Rock Honors, where they played a brief set after tribute performances by several bands, namely the Foo Fighters, Incubus, the Flaming Lips, Tenacious D and Pearl Jam; four days later the group played a private show at the Orpheum Theater in Los Angeles for a party celebrating the launch of the music video game Rock Band 2. The group took part in a concert to celebrate London's Olympics handover at The Mall outside Buckingham Palace in London on 24 August. The group returned to North America in October for another short tour, also playing a private event for a 50th birthday and a benefit gig for the Michael J. Fox Foundation For Parkinson's Research; five more shows in Japan immediately followed. They closed the year with three Christmas concerts at the indigO2 in London in December. 2009 saw the band's second short trip to Australia of the decade, preceded by their first appearance in New Zealand since 1968. Finally, in May, Townshend and Daltrey again did an acoustic performance for the Teenage Cancer Trust concerts, this time at Emirates Stadium in London. Tour band
