Default Any Ben Harper fans???

Anyone going to any of his few shows next week?

I AM :

Going to the Wednesday night show at Enmore - VERY lucky to have tickets...I went to buy tickets last Monday morning (when I think they officially went on sale through Ticketek) and both shows were sold out by 11am :( Was rather disappointed, but hey - you snooze you lose!

My g/f was an absolute legend and bought 2 tickets off an acquaintance that bought a few but couldn't go - cheerin!!!!

Apparently Ben is 'going back to his roots' in this tour so that's definitely a GOOD thing

Next Wednesday here we come!!!!
