The Who 1985 and 1988 reunions
The Who performed only twice between their 1982 and 1989 tours, both short reunions that were nonetheless highly anticipated. The first took place in 1985 for the Live Aid concert and the second in 1988 for the BPI Awards. These were the last two occasions in which the band performed with Kenney Jones on drums.
==History==
Two and a half years after the group finished their "farewell tour", they were persuaded by Live Aid organiser Bob Geldof to appear in the London segment of the monumental concert, which took place on 13 July 1985 at Wembley Stadium. They were rejoined by keyboard player John "Rabbit" Bundrick, who had played with them from 1979 to 1981, but not in 1982. The performance was energetic, but problematic: a problem with John Entwistle's bass guitar briefly delayed the start of their set, only to have the BBC's power cut out during the second verse of "My Generation", resulting in only the audio being transmitted for the last part of this song and "Pinball Wizard"; the video resumed for "Love Reign O'er Me". Prior to "Won't Get Fooled Again", Pete Townshend announced "I think we're just about getting there…wherever it is we're supposed to end up." The guitarist then lost his balance when doing one of his trademark kicks towards the end of the song, although he recovered quickly. Despite all this, the band's showing was well received and is one of the most lasting images from the event, although another two and a half years would pass before they would reunite again.
On 8 February 1988, the band reformed once more for a three-song set for that year's BPI Awards at London's Royal Albert Hall, having been honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the British Phonographic Industry. Again there was an issue with the program's transmission, as the ceremony ran late and the band's performance was faded out at the conclusion of the broadcast. This would be Kenney Jones' last performance with the group until a short one-off performance in June 2014.
