“Play the one off CSI!”

Veteran British rockers The Who will play a gig in Albert Park after next season’s Australian GP in Melbourne. The post-Oz gig looks set to become a key part of the race weekend - Kiss performed after the conclusion of this year’s race, with more than 60,000 fans staying on to see it. It’s a cunning way of leaving fans on a high, no matter how dull the race has been - not to mention keeping fans at the circuit for longer, thereby boosting revenue.

The Who’s Pete Townshend said: “This is a special occasion for us to come and be with you guys at the time of the grand prix. Kiss did it last year [sic] and we hear they played to big crowds, but we hope to see an even bigger crowd when we hit Melbourne in March.”
