The receipts and the rumors are in from this week's Will Call and it's all about rock's biggest pronoun.

Fresh off their Saturday appearance at the VH1 Honors tribute at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion, the Who will be playing a show in Los Angeles in the not-so-distant future. Yes, thanks to Reuters, word is out that the group will be playing at the Orpheum on Wednesday to promote the video game Rock Band, whose soundtrack includes the group's classic screamer "Won't Get Fooled Again."

It's a private party, so unless you have serious juice with Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey or the gaming companies EA, MTV Games and Harmonix, you're out of luck. But that's where Will Call has your back. The group will also be playing the Nokia Theatre on Nov. 8 and 9. Run do not walk to get your tickets Monday.

And in late-breaking news, Queens of the Stone Age announced a concert to celebrate the life of Eleven member and QOTSA collaborator Natasha Schneider, who died of cancer on July 2. The show will take place on Aug. 16 at the Music Box at the Henry Fonda and will include appearances from PJ Harvey, Jack Black and Kyle Gass, Matt Cameron, Brody Dalle, Jesse Hughes, Billy F. Gibbons, Chris Goss, and Alain Johannes. Get tickets Saturday for that.

In a final late-breaker,  Stereophonics announced a show at the Music Box at the Henry Fonda on Sept. 16; tickets for that go on sale Saturday as well.

There's lots more in the Will Call mailbag, of course. Check after the jump for all the assorted goodies.

The receipts and the rumors are in from this week's Will Call and it's all about rock's biggest pronoun.

Fresh off their Saturday appearance at the VH1 Honors tribute at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion, the Who will be playing a show in Los Angeles in the not-so-distant future. Yes, thanks to Reuters, word is out that the group will be playing at the Orpheum on Wednesday to promote the video game Rock Band, whose soundtrack includes the group's classic screamer "Won't Get Fooled Again."

It's a private party, so unless you have serious juice with Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey or the gaming companies EA, MTV Games and Harmonix, you're out of luck. But that's where Will Call has your back. The group will also be playing the Nokia Theatre on Nov. 8 and 9. Run do not walk to get your tickets Monday.

And in late-breaking news, Queens of the Stone Age announced a concert to celebrate the life of Eleven member and QOTSA collaborator Natasha Schneider, who died of cancer on July 2. The show will take place on Aug. 16 at the Music Box at the Henry Fonda and will include appearances from PJ Harvey, Jack Black and Kyle Gass, Matt Cameron, Brody Dalle, Jesse Hughes, Billy F. Gibbons, Chris Goss, and Alain Johannes. Get tickets Saturday for that.

In a final late-breaker,  Stereophonics announced a show at the Music Box at the Henry Fonda on Sept. 16; tickets for that go on sale Saturday as well.

There's lots more in the Will Call mailbag, of course. Check after the jump for all the assorted goodies.
