I can't wait. I am so there. I don't even care about spare beds because it isn't that far from me and I can crash out at my friend's house. it is gonna rock. See you all there!!
[sig]Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

On the original Tour Dates list, there was an April 24th show scheduled for St. John's University in Collegeville, MN. Now that date has disappeared from the list? Anyone know why?
i would suggest emailing st johns

i believe its a private show...only for st. john's and st. ben's students
i'm not positive on that though...its a festival (Pinestock) the website says that the "headliner" is going to be announced some time in march(can't remember the date) so maybe they're waiting for the fesitval's website to announce it before they do on ben's website
Why oh why does Ben never return to his hometown...
*waiting and sad in Chapel Hill*
just in case you guys don't know.....
Ben Folds
April 5 @ Foellinger Auditorium

Phone orders can be taken at 217.333.5000 for a small surcharge.

Yeh, i just got back from buying my tickets at the student lottery. I Submitted 20ish names and got one of the top tier spots in line. Still, i'm in row L, which means i'm about half way up the ground floor seating. If you're not in the student lottery, you better hope to get one on the phone, or kiss this show goodby.
i have a feeling it'll sell out rather fast, possibly before public sale

my tickets are off to the left, why is that better?
if you are off to the left you may have a view of ben actually playing...off to the right too much and all you will see is the end/side of the piano.

how come ben never comes to Canada? what does he have against our fair land....he was here with tori amos a while ago...but who wants to see tori amos?!? BEN...IF YOU CAN HERE ME....COME TO CANADA(southern ontario, to be more specific)
Wow - what was with the lotery at U of I?? I had my friend get tickets, but after the lotery the best he could get was in the balcony. Hope they're off to the left. Anyone else going to be there with me? I'm jazzed it's sold out - it's going to be a great show. I've been listening to sunny16 nonstop - it's awesome. I love Ben Folds.
the lottery is to let students get first grabs at the shows.
tickets were available for about 10 minutes after the lottery, so he was lucky if he got them afterward
