The Who will be performing for their generation at Sin City this summer.

According to the Associated Press, the legendary rock band—which now includes just two original members, vocalist Roger Daltrey and windmilling lead guitarist Pete Townshend—will play a six-show mini-residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas this July and August.

This marks the first residency at the casino’s Colosseum venue in its 14-year history. The first show kicks off on July 29, stretching through Aug. 11. Tickets will cost anywhere from $76 a pop to $501, and go on sale Friday, March 17, at 12 p.m., according to the band’s Twitter page.

The band will first finish off several dates in the U.K. in March and April before flying stateside for the Vegas shows.

Watch the band do “Won’t Get Fooled Again” at last year’s Desert Trip festival.
