    This went on sale this morning. Definitely the smallest capacity show he has ever played here. It's billed as being with a band, so it's not Ben Folds and a Piano again. I'm not sure if it's a showcase tour for new songs; often, that's what these smaller shows are designed for. Even so, great news.

    Away that weekend or I'd have been in again. Don't listen to much anymore, but always enjoy his shows.

    This seems to be sold out already. There are no options offered on Ticketmaster when you try to purchase tickets now.

    Whelans holds about 450 so it should sell out. Can't wait to see him in such a small venue.

    Any word on what to expect? Hardly the concerto type gig in a venue so small, since the Five aren't mentioned it probably isn't Darren and Jessie with him.
