The Who played four shows featuring the rock opera 'Tommy' as part of The Who Tour 1989, a reunion tour in celebration of the band's 25th year of existence. Of the four 'Tommy' shows—which were even more complete than when the band played it in 1969-1970, due to the inclusion of 'Cousin Kevin' and 'Sensation'—the performance of the charity concert at the Universal Amphitheatre aired on the Fox Network. Presented by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, the Los Angeles charity show directed all proceeds to The Gilbert W. Lindsay Children's Center, the United Friends of the Children, the Westside Children's Center, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, and Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy.
