In the end, Who frontman Roger Daltrey and guitarist Pete Townshend tapped Scott Devours to fill in, who sat behind the drum kit during Daltrey's solo "Tommy" trek a few years ago.

After the show, the Who posted a note on their official website giving Devours big props: "Scott was magnificent. He played the whole of Quadrophenia note perfectly with only a two-hour run through to the delight of everyone – onstage and off. Scott performed the 'greatest hits' encore with no rehearsal at all."
