November 1 & 2, 1973	The Who,  Kings Hall, The Concert File notes: The two nights in Manchester saw The Who playing for the first time at the 5,000-seat Kings Hall within the Belle Vue amusement park. Unlike the other members of the band, Keith Moon was no stranger to the venue. He had played at Belle Vue earlier in the year as drummer in the fictitious group The Stray Cats while filming Stardust, starring David Essex. This was the largest capacity venue on the whole tour, and a demand for tickets throughout meant that many fans were left disappointed. The next day, November 3, The Who released Quadrophenia. A conceptual storyline album told in song-cycle, Quadrophenia is the tale of Jimmy Cooper the Mod, based on 'Irish' Jack Lyons, an old Mod-friend from Shepherd's Bush, Goldhawk Club regular and the co-author of this book. Within The Who only Pete was a true Mod. He believed in the style and sometimes led that style to the letter. What he may not have realised was that he was regarded by most West London Mods as a leading face. Having received rave reviews in the music press Quadrophenia became The Who's third biggest selling album, reaching the number 2 spot both in the US and the UK.
