"The Who is one of the greatest bands in the world and watching them perform on the giant screen coupled with our surround sound systems will make you feel as if you are on stage rocking with the band," said Pat Marshall, Vice-President, Communications and Investor Relations, Cineplex Entertainment. "We are pleased to partner with Eagle Rock Entertainment to bring The Who exclusively to Cineplex Entertainment theatres across Canada."Originally shot on film in 1970 by Academy Award-winning director Murray Lerner, The Who - Live at the Isle of Wight Festival captures the band's high-energy performance in front of 600,000 festival-goers. This most dramatic moment in the history of hard rock is undoubtedly one of the band's most memorable performances ever.

The track listing includes 'I Can't Explain', 'Summertime Blues', 'My Generation' and a complete live performance of The Who's classic rock opera Tommy, featuring 'Pinball Wizard'. As a special bonus, guests will enjoy a taped interview with Pete Townshend prior to the start of the film.
