In 1996, Daltrey, Townshend and Entwistle performed Quadrophenia with Starkey on drums, Jody Linscott on percussion, Bundrick and Jon Carin on keyboards, Simon Townend on guitar, Billy Nicholls on backing vocals and a horn section of Dennis Farias, Simon Gardner, Nick Lane, Neil Sidwell and Roy Wiegand at Hyde Park . The performance was narrated by Phil Daniels, who had played Jimmy in the 1979 film. This was the first live performance of Quadrophenia in its entirety. Despite technical difficulties the show led to a six-night residency at Madison Square Garden and a US and European tour through 1996 and 1997 with the 11-piece line-up. Townshend played mostly acoustic guitar, but eventually was persuaded to play some electric.
